First dynamic content
window.status
The WWW address line at the top can be made dynamic by inputting variables into the window.status DOM
On Intenet explorer the window.status is at the bottom of the window, same for Oregano 2, but on Oregano 2 it disappears when the document is complete so it cant be used.
<script type="text/javascript">
var scroll ="Welcome to my scrolly demo, you can add content up here! "
function scrollmessage()
{
scroll = scroll.substring(1, scroll.length) + scroll.substring(0, 1)
window.status = scroll
setTimeout("scrollmessage()", 500)
}
scrollmessage()
</script>
Note first example of a function scrollmessage() also using setTimeout
Dont worry too much about the programming, the important bit is to show something dynamic running on Oregano
