I am currently using the hopping text effect of Frontpage when the page loads. I also want to use a trailing bullet script but when i put the code in it stops the hop-in effect from working. I would like to get both working together if possible.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers,

Matt

Here is the code.

The above points to a javascript file on your local computer. You must upload that to your web host first of all.

Most likely something in that file conflicts with your other script, perhaps this: http://www.wsabstract.com/javatutors/multiplejava.shtml
