got this code from http://www.hypergurl.com/snowpage.html



thanks in advance

this is an another option, you can visit, http://www.dynamicdrive.com for some scripts.

■ make sure you have the snow script, example:

</SCRIPT>

■ Open your snow script on a NotePad or any text editing tool.

■ Delete/Remove the text in color blue.

■ Save As your snow script as SNOW.js

■ Upload your snow script to any web hosting. (e.g., www.freewebtown.com or www.freespaces.com)

■ get your snow URL (e.g., www.freewebtown.com/USERNAME_or_ACCOUNT/SNOW.js)

■ now with this code, replace your SNOW_URL with your snow URL

<script type=text/javascript src=SNOW_URL></script>

■ Go to:

Admin Panel >> General Admin >> Configuration >> General

■ Put the codes in the SITE DESCRIPTION. The codes should look like this:

<script type=text/javascript src=http://www.freewebtown.com/username/SNOW.js></script>

■ Save it.

WORDS TO KNOW:
HOST or HOSTING: To Upload or save files on internet.
Some sites you can host your files:
http://www.freewebtown.com
http://www.freespaces.com
http://geocities.yahoo.com

URL: (Uniform Resource Locator)
an address identifying the location of a file on the Internet,
consisting of the protocol,
the computer on which the file is located,
and the file’s location on that computer.

i dont understand how to use www.freewebtown.com i have sign up and uploaded a file but where is the addy to put on my site

if you used freewebtown, you can see your file at the File Manager.
to get your full URL,

http://www.freewebtown.com/USERNAME/SNOW.js

whereas:

USERNAME is the account name you used to log-in at freewebtown.

if you are not familiar using freewebtown, you can try other web hosting site. you can search google for some good web hosting site.

You can also use this host which is very simple to use : http://pmsc.free.fr/gb

Then you choose the host for .js files, you upload and then, you will have one URL ready to use.

This host has been translated recently, so the addy can now be given.

i tried putting this url http://pmsc.free.fr/J/061227151010.js in the site description but nothing happens this is what it should like http://www.hypergurl.com/snowpage.html

put this code on the site description, go to:

Admin Panel >> General Admin >> Configuration >> Site description

Code:

<script type=text/javascript src="http://pmsc.free.fr/J/061227151010.js"></script>

update message:

sorry, you are using double html script.

try to look using only one script.



update message:

i tried to use your code, but there is an error on your script.

i even tried your script pauldemonteverde
but still dont work

the codes you had given is not applicable on the forum boards. you can use that codes only for/as web page. your codes uses the BODY onload command and BODY scripts of an html page. try looking for another scripts that uses only 1 script. i tested your codes it really dont work. let me know if you see some good codes.

the link you had given about hosting js file does not work.

use my code:

Code:

<script type=text/javascript src="http://www.freewebtown.com/friendstermagic3/snow.js"></script>

ok...

i have re-modify your snow code


use this code and paste it on your Site Description

Code:

<script type=text/javascript src="http://www.freewebtown.com/friendstermagic3/snow.js"></script>

see example of it at my forum

thank you so much for your help

this excellent =) =) thnks thnks thnks thnks =)
