Mouse trails?
I could use some JavaScript expertise! :)
Two pages on my web site (the main page and the Me page) use a bit of JavaScript which is supposed to make a trail of stars behind the mouse pointer as you move it around. I got that script from a web site a very long time ago; the code itself is in the file stars.js.
Problem is, that code no longer works with Mozilla or Safari or other modern browsers, so the trail of stars no longer appears! :( And I don't know nearly enough DHTML yet to make sense of the code, especially since different browsers seem to implement DHTML in radically different ways. :-b I can't find any good web site which offers a comprehensive and helpful explanation of how modern DHTML works.
Would someone please help me unravel this JavaScript code and update/streamline it so that it works with modern web browsers? (I don't care about Netscape 4 compatibility any more!)
