JavaScript Flying in Effect

See this JAVAscript flying in effect demo page. Please note that this works properly in Internet explorer, not in Firefox.

How to do it?

This flying-in effect uses javascript to swap serveral <div> tag.

First you need copy following javascript code to your <head> section.

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
<!--

n = (document.layers) ? 1:0
ie = (document.all) ? 1:0

function init() {
slideoutActive = 0
if (n) {
slideout1 = document.slideoutInterface.document.slideoutContent.document.slideoutContent1
slideout2 = document.slideoutInterface.document.slideoutContent.document.slideoutContent2
slideout3 = document.slideoutInterface.document.slideoutContent.document.slideoutContent3
slideout4 = document.slideoutInterface.document.slideoutContent.document.slideoutContent4
slideout5 = document.slideoutInterface.document.slideoutContent.document.slideoutContent5
}

if (ie) {
slideout1 = slideoutContent1.style
slideout2 = slideoutContent2.style
slideout3 = slideoutContent3.style
slideout4 = slideoutContent4.style
slideout5 = slideoutContent5.style
}
slideoutShown = slideout1
slideoutShown.xpos = 0
slideoutNew = "none"
slideoutNew.xpos = -285
}

function slideout(which) {
if (!slideoutActive && slideoutShown != which) {
slideoutActive = 1
slideoutNew = which
slideoutNew.xpos = -285
slideoutLeft()
}
}

function slideoutLeft() {
if (slideoutShown.xpos > -285) {
slideoutShown.xpos -= 15
slideoutShown.left = slideoutShown.xpos
setTimeout("slideoutLeft()",30)
}
else {
hide(slideoutShown)
show(slideoutNew)
setTimeout("slideoutRight()",50)
}
}

function slideoutRight() {
if (slideoutNew.xpos < 0) {
slideoutNew.xpos += 15
slideoutNew.left = slideoutNew.xpos
setTimeout("slideoutRight()",30)
}
else {
slideoutShown = slideoutNew
slideoutActive = 0 // stops the sequence
}
}

function show(showobj) {
if (n) showobj.visibility = "show"
if (ie) showobj.visibility = "visible"
}
function hide(hideobj) {
if (n) hideobj.visibility = "hide"
if (ie) hideobj.visibility = "hidden"
}

</SCRIPT>

Then add the following style code to your <style> tag.

<STYLE TYPE="text/css">

TD {font-family:'Arial'; font-size:10pt; line-height:13pt;}
