Description: Real life billboards use interesting transitional effects in between messages to catch viewers' attention. Well, so does this DHTML billboard script! In IE5.5+, a random multimedia effect is applied during each message change, while in other modern browsers (NS6+/Opera7+), the script still functions as normal, though minus the effect.

This script uses regular DIV tags to contain all the messages you wish to be shown, for ease of customizing them. Additionally, in older browsers (ie: NS4/IE4), you can choose whether the script should hide all of the content or not, since if the later, all of the content is shown all at once (depending on your page design, you may not want this).

JavaScript is a scripting language originally developed by Netscape to add interactivity and power to web documents.

Java is completely different from JavaScript- it's more powerful, more complex, and unfortunately, a lot harder to master.
