Ah! I see! Thanks for the explanation, Kool Dude... and thanks for saying it in English.

Boader301 -- are you saving the images over as something, or downloading them and uploading them without resaving? The reason I ask is that animated gifs are a special format of gif, and if you open them in a regular image editor and save them, they will no longer be animated.

The animation will only show in an animation program or a browser.

The image tag above (or Kool Dude's odd scripted version) will work fine, but if you aren't seeing an animation, the problem is with the file format.

hope that helps,

Suzanne

OK, Thanks Suzanne, will that give me what I want??

I recently got some free animated gifs and I was wondering how I can put them on my page...

When I tried to put them on they were just image, and they were not animated,

Tahnks for your reply!

Well, a script was asked for, so I gave a script. If you want plain HTML, it can be done without the extra script tags.

Kool Dude -- is there a reason why you are adding all those extraneous script tags when you answer a question?

xx = exact pixels of height or width
border=0 is for if the image is inside a hyperlink

Same deal for the embed tag from the other post -- you don't need the script tags as it isn't a script, it's a regular HTML tag. Older browsers will ignore it fine, and there isn't an older browser out there, is there, that is graphics capable and will not recognize the basic <img> tag?!

Hi,

Hate to break the news to you, but...
GIFs (animated or not) are a graphic thing, no scripts involved. You need a paint program like the GIF Construction Set (shareware).
If you really mean by animated that you want to "move" the image on the screen, you need to use dHTML. You either move the division layer or you use drag. For the former solution, see the "Self-Closing Moveable Layers" script at my site. For the latter.........
