Sorry for the utter lack of posts! The holidays were extremely busy! I hope that Santa was good to all… No Coal in the stockings?
Well, here is my yearly reminder. If you are still doing it manually…. Don’t forget to update the copyrights on your website(s).
If you are still doing it manually.. Then QUIT IT!! Save yourself some work.. I know, it’s not hard.. Only once a year.. But why think about it.
Check out my entry from last year on a Javascript AND Coldfusion method of keeping those pesky copyrights in check.
HAPPY NEW YEAR!!

Just a quick reminder to everyone out there… It's a New Year … (Yippeeeee!!!) If you're still doing it by hand, don't forget to update the Copyright Dates on your web sites.
If you're doing it automatically.. Good for you!! Keep up the Good work. Just check to see that it did what it was supposed to do.
If you want to do it automatically, I blogged about a couple of methods a while back:

Simple Pop-up Window
December 28, 2006 by Robert Owen
Filed under Javascript
I tend to use this little bit of javascript quite a bit so I thought I would share. You can use this little javascript to add a “Pop-up” window effect to links in your website.
For example, if you have a page of product images and Item numbers you can make them link to a “Pop-up” window with the item details.

Cool Javascript Effect

I saw this the other day and thought I'd share… I'm trying to figure out the practicle use for this script.. other than if you're really bored.
Just go to any website that has pictures and paste the code below into the address bar of your browser.
javascript:R=0; x1=.1; y1=.05; x2=.25; y2=.24; x3=1.6; y3=.24; x4=300; y4=200; x5=300; y5=200; DI=document.getElementsByTagName("img"); DIL=DI.length; function A(){for(i=0; i-DIL; i++){DIS=DI[ i ].style; DIS.position='absolute'; DIS.left=(Math.sin(R*x1+i*x2+x3)*x4+x5)+"px"; DIS.top=(Math.cos(R*y1+i*y2+y3)*y4+y5)+"px"}R++}setInterval('A()',5); void(0);

Javascript Countdown
October 13, 2006 by Robert Owen
Filed under Javascript
Not long ago I Blogged about a Coldfusion method for counting down to a specific date. Well, if you don't have access to a coldfusion server for your site, it's pretty easy to add the same function with Javascript.
I found this script at: JavaScriptKit It's really simple to modify.
/* Count down until any date script- By JavaScript Kit (www.javascriptkit.com) Over 200+ free scripts here! */
//change the text below to reflect your own,
var before="My Birthday!" var current="Today is My Birthday, Dont forget to visit my wishlist" var montharray=new Array("Jan","Feb","Mar","Apr","May","Jun","Jul","Aug","Sep","Oct","Nov","Dec")
function countdown(yr,m,d){
var today=new Date()
var todayy=today.getYear()
if (todayy < 1000)
todayy+=1900
var todaym=today.getMonth()
var todayd=today.getDate()
var todaystring=montharray[todaym]+" "+todayd+", "+todayy
var futurestring=montharray[m-1]+" "+d+", "+yr
var difference=(Math.round((Date.parse(futurestring)-Date.parse(todaystring))/(24*60*60*1000))*1)
if (difference==0)
document.write(current)
else if (difference>0)
document.write("Only "+difference+" days until "+before)
}
//enter the count down date using the format year/month/day
countdown(2007,2,25)
Just modify the “var before ” and “var current” text to your own text. Then modify the date in the “countdown(yyyy,mm,dd)” statement.
Then Place this bit of code in the body where you would like the count down to appear.
If you use this code on your page, please keep the credits to the original author in place.
Enjoy!
