Put this in your head tag:

<style>
.spanstyle {
position:absolute;
visibility:visible;
top:-50px;
font-size:10pt;
font-family:comic sans ms;
font-weight:bold;
color:black;
}
</style>
<script>

*/

var x,y
var step=20
var flag=0

// Your snappy message. Important: the space at the end of the sentence!!!
var message="Lissa Explains it All! "
message=message.split("")

var xpos=new Array()
for (i=0;i<=message.length-1;i++) {
xpos[i]=-50
}

var ypos=new Array()
for (i=0;i<=message.length-1;i++) {
ypos[i]=-50
}

function handlerMM(e){
x = (document.layers) ? e.pageX : document.body.scrollLeft+event.clientX
y = (document.layers) ? e.pageY : document.body.scrollTop+event.clientY
flag=1
}

function makesnake() {
if (flag==1 && document.all) {
for (i=message.length-1; i>=1; i--) {
xpos[i]=xpos[i-1]+step
ypos[i]=ypos[i-1]
}
xpos[0]=x+step
ypos[0]=y

for (i=0; i<message.length-1; i++) {
var thisspan = eval("span"+(i)+".style")
thisspan.posLeft=xpos[i]
thisspan.posTop=ypos[i]
}
}

else if (flag==1 && document.layers) {
for (i=message.length-1; i>=1; i--) {
xpos[i]=xpos[i-1]+step
ypos[i]=ypos[i-1]
}
xpos[0]=x+step
ypos[0]=y

for (i=0; i<message.length-1; i++) {
var thisspan = eval("document.span"+i)
thisspan.left=xpos[i]
thisspan.top=ypos[i]
}
}
var timer=setTimeout("makesnake()",30)
}

</script>

Put this in the body section:

<style>
.spanstyle {
position:absolute;
visibility:visible;
top:-50px;
font-size:10pt;
font-family:comic sans ms;
font-weight:bold;
color:black;
}
</style>
<script>

var x,y
var step=20
var flag=0

// Your snappy message. Important: the space at the end of the sentence!!!
var message="Lissa Explains it All! "
message=message.split("")

var xpos=new Array()
for (i=0;i<=message.length-1;i++) {
xpos[i]=-50
}

var ypos=new Array()
for (i=0;i<=message.length-1;i++) {
ypos[i]=-50
}

function handlerMM(e){
x = (document.layers) ? e.pageX : document.body.scrollLeft+event.clientX
y = (document.layers) ? e.pageY : document.body.scrollTop+event.clientY
flag=1
}

function makesnake() {
if (flag==1 && document.all) {
for (i=message.length-1; i>=1; i--) {
xpos[i]=xpos[i-1]+step
ypos[i]=ypos[i-1]
}
xpos[0]=x+step
ypos[0]=y

for (i=0; i<message.length-1; i++) {
var thisspan = eval("span"+(i)+".style")
thisspan.posLeft=xpos[i]
thisspan.posTop=ypos[i]
}
}

else if (flag==1 && document.layers) {
for (i=message.length-1; i>=1; i--) {
xpos[i]=xpos[i-1]+step
ypos[i]=ypos[i-1]
}
xpos[0]=x+step
ypos[0]=y

for (i=0; i<message.length-1; i++) {
var thisspan = eval("document.span"+i)
thisspan.left=xpos[i]
thisspan.top=ypos[i]
}
}
var timer=setTimeout("makesnake()",30)
}

</script>

Put this RIGHT AFTER the body tag:

<body onLoad="makesnake()" style="width:100%;overflow-x:hidden;overflow-y:scroll">


I think that is it. but if you have any problems go here: http://www.lissaexplains.com/java.shtml#cursortext

that's incorrect- the <body...> code shouldn't go AFTER the body tag, it should replace it. you should not have multiple <body> tags.
