HTMLHelp Forums _ Graphics, Flash and Multimedia _ A lil help with a candle animation

Posted by: elirishjeff Apr 22 2011, 06:43 AM

I have set up a small memorial site for my gf who has just passed,
I would like to have a small candle on the page, a simple click and light with a counter to show how many times it has been light/
Is this possible on HTML??
Thanks in Advance
Jeff

No. It would take JavaScript to switch the image with the unlighted candle to an animated one with a burning candle. It would take a server-side script to count the clicks.

Sorry about your girlfriend.

The server-side part should write the count in a .txt file. See for example http://green-beast.com/blog/?p=78 to give you an idea. Found by searching for "php count clicks session".

I'm sorry for your loss too.
Only, I thought "gf" to be grandfather.
