This JavaScript produces a rotating globe. The JavaScript in its current state is not really applicable to be used on live-sites. There are no problems with current browsers, but it overstrains current CPUs. The script works - as long as the radius is not chosen to large - without problems, but strains the computer in a way you would not expect your visitors to take. Serious problems this JavaScript has with Firefox, version 3 and above. On versions up to 3 the script worked like a charm - starting with version 3 its a real pain.
The JavaScript is till now tested as follows:
Demo (shown inside an inline-frame): License: Free to use as long as the copyright-notice in the sources stays intact. Provided as is, no warranty, no liability! Miscellaneous: I am happy about everybody who gives me a link back to www.bretteleben.de on his website, this way helping me to popularize the script. The JavaScript "rotating globe" is till now listed in different JavaScript - resources, including the largest - as far as i know - JavaScript resource: HotScripts. If you have questions or suggestions about this JavaScript, please use the comment-function. Records about the behavior of this script with further browsers/operating systems would be appreciated. The ZIP-archive contains a demo-page, all configurable parameters are commented inside the script. |
