Blinking text and graphics

@rdettwylerAug 20.2011

I found a script to blink text at ~~[url]~~http://javascript.internet.com/text-effects/blinking-text.html[/url]

It works in IE and not in Chrome.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Rick

@DracoMerestAug 21.2011 — #The script is very old and uses references long abandoned by Netscape and

Internet Explorer. (NN4 and IE4 to be precise)

Layers and Document all have been retained for backwards comparability is

some browsers but not new ones.

The script considers there to be only two types of browsers, netscape and

internet explorer.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross-browser

WC3 superseded layers with getElementById in 2000. So, basically, this script

will not work until all the layer references are changed.

Have a look at: http://www.w3schools.com/css/css_display_visibility.asp
