DONE: a self-scrolling, BPM adjustable html/notepad/text file gizmo
toddmatherne:
I found a java code that web designers use to scroll text on a webpage. I tested it with some success. The page will automatically began to scroll once you click on your local web page, but using only a browser you wouldnt have to be reliant on just MS Word.
Here's an example with Sweet Home Alabama. Just copy everything as is, paste into notepad and save it with quotations around the file name to specify .html. ex. File->Save As->"sweethome.html". This will save the file with a .html extension rather than .txt. Start at the <html> and end at the </html>. The var speed controls the tempo. Not sure if this would help, but, with a common style sheet you could simply include this java script, css style sheet and format a bulk of songs with all common font size, etc... The BPM notepad concept really got me thinking especially with the ability to insert images, establish things precisely so that they match the tempo of the song.
Enjoy!
Todd

Sweet home Alabama<br>
Where the skies are so blue<br>
Sweet Home Alabama<br>
Lord, I'm coming home to you<br>
</p>
<p>
In Birmingham they love the governor<br>
Now we all did what we could do<br>
Now Watergate does not bother me<br>
Does your conscience bother you?<br>
Tell the truth<br>
</p>
<p>
Sweet home Alabama<br>
Where the skies are so blue<br>
Sweet Home Alabama<br>
Lord, I'm coming home to you<br>
Here I come Alabama<br>
</p>
<p>
Now Muscle Shoals has got the Swampers<br>
And they've been known to pick a song or two<br>
Lord they get me off so much<br>
They pick me up when I'm feeling blue<br>
Now how about you?<br>
</p>
<p>
Sweet home Alabama<br>
Where the skies are so blue<br>
Sweet Home Alabama<br>
Lord, I'm coming home to you<br>
</p>
<p>
Sweet home Alabama<br>
Oh sweet home baby<br>
Where the skies are so blue<br>
And the governor's true<br>
Sweet Home Alabama<br>
Lordy<br>
Lord, I'm coming home to you<br>
Yea, yea Montgomery's got the answer<br>

cool script!
but i don;t want the bloat of having a browser running just to scroll text...
tho if it works for ya, theres a tiny free browser that may work well for that, if it supports java...it';s called "off by one" or something like that...i use that sometimes if i'm surfing in dangerous waters.
do you like the bose system?
i think my smallest marshall would probably put a severe hurtin on it...we do al ot of hendrix and zeppelin and pink floyd, some of it isn;t very quiet!!
;)

Cool :)
I guess i should make another release soon, I've been very busy with other projects though,
maybe i'll just do a small one with some suggestions implemented from here :)

Methinks I can safely say that it'll be thoroughly tested. :P
