Anyone else noticed the Animator applet seems to wait for
mouse movement to keep loading images in Netscape b4? It just loads
all images up in the appletviewer, but stops loading in b4 if you don't
move the mouse.
On the issue of transparency, the Animator applet will handle a static
background image fine, and if your animation images are transparent
it will look fine.
On the same note, I've had success using the ImageMap class with
transparent gifs, you just have to do a loadImage() of some background
gif (the exact same size as the transparent ones) into the ImageMap
first, then load the applet (that is, the one you will interact with)
ImageMap. Regards, Erik.
