Hi,
I have an applet idea but have trouble to implement it.
The idea is to have a little icon bouncing on a web page. Someething
similar to the bouncing head from the demo. But instead of bouncing in
a frame, I would like to have it bouncing on a web page.
I am stuck at a point that I do not know how to keep track of the
image of a web page.
If I want an applet floating on an image (say a gif), that's easy. All
I have to do is to repaint the exposed part of the image. However, a web
page can have multiple images and text, that makes things complicated.
I was thinking about passing the target web page as a param of an applet.
Then draw an offscreen image of that web page.... But then I need to process
the html page myself. I don't think it is a good solution unless there is
an API can do the job.
Any good suggestion?
Cheers,
Edith
