I have an Announcement, (first one at top) called Falling Snow. It is working just fine in Internet Explorer 8. However, in Firefox you can see the snowflakes just holding as a fixed line at very top of screen and 'flashing' right to left. No nice fall to bottom of the screen. When someone gets a chance, could you look at the script please, or let me know what needs changing if needed?

Try disabling the INSTANT MESSAGING and see if that solves the problem. Sometimes IM (which uses JavaScript) interferes with other JavaScript running on the page. If the problem is fixed, you have two choices - disable Instant Messaging or live with snowflakes not falling in FireFox.

That's what it was; snow fell fine in Firefox with Instant Messaging disabled. I took choice number 3....lol. I stopped the snow storm. So I should look for something other than Java Script based???

http://forums.classcreator.com/messages....859-BE8DA6A81772E073 There is a Falling Leaves script on the above forum. I have modified it to work with INSTANT MESSAGING and FireFox. Just change the graphics to point to a snowflake (or snowflakes) you like and instead of falling leaves, you will have falling snow.

Not that we don't already have enough snow on the ground, but how do I get falling snow on my site? I think I know HOW to load it I just don't have the code. Thanks, Doug

Looking for a "clean" (without problems) code for snowflakes. I like the ones falling on Vicky's site but was not able to find the coding. Her site is: http://www.classcreator.com/dearborn-hgts-mi-crestwood/ Of course, it may be that my brain and eyes are not working together due to lack of sleep.

Hi Gwen, Attached in Word Pad is the Falling Snow Code, and I am also attaching Snow.gif that needs loaded in to your Vault to run this. The code is really same as Falling Leaves, you just call snow.gif instead of leaves. You will need to edit the path to your vaault for the snow.gif in the 8th line below.

Derrell hope you don't mind, but I'm "borrowing" your falling snow code. But now I have a question. I've downloaded a snow gif that I like to my image vault. But I don't understand how to edit the path to my vault to that particular snow.git that I want. Can you help?

Francine, I have made the necessary changes, but you still have to activate the announcement. I don't like that snowflake very much. It is too "jumpy". Kyle

Thanks Kyle for your help. I just can't seem to get the hang of this script stuff. I see what you mean about the snowflake being "jumpy". I just upload a different one called snowflake falling.gif. Would you mind terribly making that change. I'm not going to activate the announcement till it's working correctly. Thank you so much and hope you enjoy your Holiday Season!
