So Javascript has raised its ugly head again I see! When you use these sites there is a general assumption that you know a little about Javascript but is not always the case, if you do n ot mind me saying so? I will talk you through the bits that you can change and what it all means.
//Configure below to change URL path to the snow image
var snowsrc="snow.gif"
// Configure below to change number of snow to render
var no = 10;
// Configure whether snow should disappear after x seconds (0=never):
var hidesnowtime = 0;
// Configure how much snow should drop down before fading ("windowheight" or "pageheight")
var snowdistance = "pageheight";
The first line begins with //....programmers use this to insert notes regarding their coding in order to help them to remember what they are doing. In this case the programmer has left notes for you.
var stands for variable in JS and it can looked upon like a box and the name of the box is snowsrc.In the first var, (box) you have the name and path of your snowflake, in this case snow.gif. So, if you save the gif of the snowflake and upload it to your site into your image folder for example, then you will need to change the path of the gif to "images/snow.gif" in the javascript itself. The variable will now read
var snowsrc="images/snow.gif" and that is all he is asking you to do. You can also change the values of the other variables to change the look to the whole thing. So here is a recap..
1 Copy the snow and upload to your site.
2. Copy and paste the JS code into the the body of your page, that is anywhere between and .
If you have uploaded the image to a folder then you will need to change the JS code as shown..if you have just uploaded up to your site then you shouldn't need to change anything.
Upload your page with the JS in it and view it in your browser and bingo! it should all work.
Hope it goes ok..Merry Xmas!
