I am using Front Page 2002 in windows 7 and I want to make a line of text
blink. How do I make a line of text blink?

Google for: "blinking text script"

Keep in mind it is considered to be very annoying to most users. And, it can
cause seizures in people who suffer from epilipsey and other issues.

Many people consider the use of blinking text to be very amateur. I, for
one, will immediately leave a site that has it, it is so annoying.

The problem is that my employer wants to insert a temporary special note.
He wants to make sure attention is given.

Surely you are creative enough to come up with something other than blinking
text. Like scrolling text. There are tons of script for it.

Do some research on blinking text and show your employer.

I would like scrolling. I know I can use highlighting, but if I can scroll
it would be better.

But support for the blinking text feature is absent from Internet Explorer.
Blinking text don't work in IE 6 or 7 Browser I do know this
I do not know about IE 8 or the new IE 9 Browser do you know?

it will work in Mozilla Browsers, like Firefox,SeaMonkey and
Netscape, Opera too.
But 85% of user os Internet Explorer, so they will see the Text but it will
not blink in those Browser .

W3C do not always gave one good advised!
For marquee is support be all Browsers and the old TEXT Browser too!

But you Tom you right 99.99% right at all time and here to!
But need more Info to make it to a 100%
