And a JavaScript question...  I have completed the scenes to
animate the spider spinning this web and I can't get it to work...
Something about a "argument=-length" error...  It is about
50+ frames and I can get the last half to work with 25 frames
but not the entire thing...  I'm guessing that it is too long- does
anyone know java well enough to modify the codes I'm using
so that length is not an error?

This is the coding before the animated frames:
<BODY><center> 
<H1>Spider -jgs 97</H1>
<script language="JavaScript">
    var max=0;    
function tlist(){ max=tlist.arguments.length;
        for(i=0;i<max;i++) this[i]=tlist.arguments[i];    }    
tl = new tlist(

And this is the coding I'm using after the final frame:
    );    var x=0;    function tick() {        
document.f.t.value=tl[x];        
x++; if(x==max) x=0;        //if(confirm('continue?'))            
setTimeout("tick()",200);    }    //--></script>
<BODY onload="tick()"><FORM NAME=f><TEXTAREA NAME=t ROWS=26 COLS=40>
</TEXTAREA></FORM></BODY>
<BR>

(And I do have the " and the extra \ and the \n"+ in all the proper
places!)
Llizard, Veronica!  Do you ever have the same problem with a long
animation?  Can anyone help?  Any Java-gurus lurking?

Umm.. remember, there IS a difference between java and javascript, I
know a bit of java but nothing of javascript, try to be more precise
next time please.
So, what is it you REALLY want? :)

Somebody figured out a way to make javascript ascii animations but
apparently big animations don't come out right on some computers. (I
don't know why)  :(

Well I know a fair bit (I would like to think at least), about JavaScript. Any
problems with the language?

Send the whole file to me (as an attachment, or the mail program might
do something bad to it...)
