Can anyone tell me how to make my "snow" fall to the bottom of my page, not just stop part way...? I got the code from "Lissa's" fun stuff, tried to change the height variable, but it never goes any farther...

Here is my test page......

My 1st Test Page.... (http://www.geocities.com/quilts_n_more1/test-page1.html)

Thank you,

Tam :help:

Yes... it is after the <body> tag.

Here is the first part of my page & the first part of the script...

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN">

<html>
<head>

<title>Test Page.....</title></head>

<font size=6 face="Garamond,Comic Sans MS,BaskervilleTMed">

<body BGCOLOR="#C2F7FF" TEXT="#551A8B" LINK="#0000FF"
VLINK="#0083FF" ALINK="#EE0000" BACKGROUND="quilt7-back.gif" alt="">

<body>

<script language="JavaScript1.2" type="text/javascript">
<!-- This cool script is copyright Altan, visit his site! -->

<!-- Begin
var no = 10; // snow number
var speed = 10; // smaller number moves the snow faster
var snowflake = "leaf7.gif";

var ns4up = (document.layers) ? 1 : 0; // browser sniffer
var ie4up = (document.all) ? 1 : 0;
var dx, xp, yp; // coordinate and position variables
var am, stx, sty; // amplitude and step variables
var i, doc_width = 800, doc_height = 600;
if (ns4up) {
doc_width = self.innerWidth;
doc_height = self.innerHeight;
} else if (ie4up) {
doc_width = document.body.clientWidth;
doc_height = document.body.clientHeight;
}


Thank you for looking....

I don't know if this might have something to do with it, but you have two body tags, and the font tag is in the wrong spot. Change this:

<font size=6 face="Garamond,Comic Sans MS,BaskervilleTMed">

<body BGCOLOR="#C2F7FF" TEXT="#551A8B" LINK="#0000FF"
VLINK="#0083FF" ALINK="#EE0000" BACKGROUND="quilt7-back.gif" alt="">

<body>

To this:

<body BGCOLOR="#C2F7FF" TEXT="#551A8B" LINK="#0000FF"
VLINK="#0083FF" ALINK="#EE0000" BACKGROUND="quilt7-back.gif">
<font size=6 face="Garamond,Comic Sans MS,BaskervilleTMed">

here try this code instead: <script language="JavaScript1.2">
