The blink tag was a nice touch.
- roadnottaken 16y agoHmm... no blinking in Chrome. I think I'm happy about that "feature"...
- taylorbuley 16y agoPersonally I think a <marquee> would have also sufficed.
- elliottcarlson 16y agoOT: My first website back in the mid-90's had both a <blink> and <marquee> tag in it... so so sad...
- wladimir 16y agoMine also had a java applet with a lame animated menu! Beat that :)
- Luyt 16y agoMy website featured a permanent 'Under Construction' graphic.
- brk 16y agoMy website was actually a gopher:// site.
- chopsueyar 16y agoI had a BBS.
- linker3000 16y agoI actually went out, met and talked to other people.
- wladimir 16y agoIt can't get more old-school than that, you win :)
- rbanffy 16y agoLuxury! In my time, there weren't other people to talk to. ;-)
- chopsueyar 16y agoLike at an internet cafe or someplace with free wifi?
- InclinedPlane 16y agoIE and Chrome don't support blink, only Firefox does. A legacy of the Netscape heritage I'd imagine, since blink is a Netscape proprietary HTML addition.
- robin_reala 16y agoGecko also supports text-decoration:blink if you’re a fan of semantic markup and keeping presentation in the presentation layer. Personally, I’m waiting for “Bug 173540 - make text-decoration:blink pulse instead of blink” to be fixed: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=173540 https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=173540
