Scrolling Images with
Java
You can
pause the scrolling of the images by clicking on the banner.
Please be patient
while the images for the scroller are downloaded.
Java Programming Notes
This
scrolling display is controlled by a Java program which was adapted from
a program from Sun Microsystems called ImageTape.
In an
animation like this one, where the small images are moved to new positions,
the download for the Java progam is much faster than it would be if it
were a GIF animation. With GIF animations many different frames in
the sequence must be downloaded, but with Java, only one copy of the small
images is downloaded and then they are reused many times over, by simply
displaying them in new positions.
