| How do I make text flash between two defined colors using a custom BBcode?; Man, that's quite a topic title isn't it? | |

I am using the "Best BB Tag Code EVER" (link) to add some additional formatting options. I managed to cobble together the most of what I needed, save one code: a [blink][/blink] code. Ideally, the code would be used something like this: [blink=#0FF,#088]This text blinks between cyan and teal.[/blink] Initial exploration suggests that this requires Javascript. Poking around, I extracted this code from the rainbow text BBcode on that post I linked to mere sentences ago:
Best guess is that all I'd have to do is find a way to plug a pair of hex values into that function, add a delay if one doesn't already exist, cross my fingers and pray. Unfortunately, while fairly fluent in C++ I know nothing about Javascript and have only a very tentative understanding of HTML. So, here I am, asking anyone with too much free time to link me to the other person who asked this question that I couldn't find by using search and thereby make me feel like a tremendous fool. Or, if I'm the first person to make this particular request, to write a function or equivalent simple HTML/CSS for me. This is my first post here! Forgive any faux pass I have doubtlessly made!

Then I'll do that. Can't hurt having my post in yet another location. |
