Abstract
A method for creating a Web page component, including opening a remote connection to a server provided with a plurality of basic animation sequences having variable attributes associated therewith, and choosing, via the connection, at least one of the basic animation sequences. One or more of the variable attributes of the chosen animation sequence are changed, and a Web page is posted which includes the animation sequence with the changed attributes.
Claims43
A method for creating a Web page component, comprising:
- opening a remote connection to a server provided with a plurality of basic animation sequences represented by corresponding files in a markup language held on the server, the sequences having variable attributes represented by placeholder tags in the markup language files;
- choosing, via the connection, at least one of the basic animation sequences to be used in the Web page component;
- changing one or more of the variable attributes of the chosen animation sequence by inputting, over the remote connection to the server, values to be assigned to the corresponding placeholder tags;
- and
- posting the Web page component including the animation sequence with the changed attributes to a Web page.
A method for creating a Web page component, comprising:
- providing a plurality of basic animation sequences represented by corresponding files in a markup language held on a server, the sequences having variable attributes represented by placeholder tags in the markup language files;
- receiving from a remote processor a selection of at least one of the basic animation sequences to be used in the Web page component;
- changing one or more of the attributes of the chosen animation sequence responsive to an input from the remote processor to the server of values to be assigned to the corresponding placeholder tags;
- and
- posting the Web page component including the animation sequence with the changed attributes to a Web page.
Apparatus for creating a Web page component, comprising:
- a server which displays a plurality of basic animation sequences represented by corresponding files in a markup language held on the server, the sequences having variable attributes represented by placeholder tags in the markup language files, and which allows a user of a remote processor to select at least one basic animation sequence and change one or more of the variable attributes of the sequence by inputting values to be assigned to the corresponding placeholder tags;
- and
- a communication interface which receives a connection from the remote processor to the server, whereby the user thereof selects the sequence and inputs the values to be assigned to the placeholder tags.
A software package for creating Web page components, comprising an executable file on a machine readable medium which is run by a server having a communication interface adapted to receive a connection from a remote processor, such that running the file causes the server to display on a Web page a selected basic animation sequence from among a plurality of basic animation sequences represented by corresponding files in a markup language held on the server and having variable attributes represented by placeholder tags in the markup language files, responsive to selection of the sequence by a user of the remote processor via the connection, and causes the server to allow the user to change one or more of the variable attributes of the selected sequence by inputting values to the server via the connection to be assigned to the corresponding placeholder tags.
