Fun harmless javascript trick

[Doug Nelson]

Copy the following, navigate to the Challenges page, then paste it into your browser's address field and hit return

javascript:R=0; x1=.1; y1=.05; x2=.25; y2=.24; x3=1.6; y3=.24; x4=300; y4=200; x5=300; y5=200; DI=document.getElementsByTagName("img"); DIL=DI.length; function A(){for(i=0; i-DIL; i++){DIS=DI[ i ].style; DIS.position='absolute'; DIS.left=(Math.sin(R*x1+i*x2+x3)*x4+x5)+"px"; DIS.top=(Math.cos(R*y1+i*y2+y3)*y4+y5)+"px"}R++}setInterval('A()',5); void(0);

It actually works with any page, but it's just cooler with lots of thumbnails. To stop it just hit refresh.

Doug, definitely cool!! It may be harmless but if you paste it into the Adobe PS user forum link below, it raises a whole bunch of red flags with Adobe.

You've got too much free time on your hands Doug.

You should be busy chasing the contractors, to make sure that the moderators new swimming pool and sauna complex gets finished on time.

Gary, you can't post this here - please use the moderator's thread.
Otherwise everybody's going to know about the big christmas party at Doug's place.

OOPS!

And to think I nearly mentioned the RP Ferrari that Flora's been hogging all this time.

Gary,

Flora promised I could have it next!

[Gary Richardson]

Not fair, I was promised it next, you're just picking on me cos I'm a newbie.

EDIT: In danger of going a bit too far OT here, sorry.
