-
-
- This applet can generate and animate a waving flag in realtime, and
- the flags of 34 nations are supported.
-
- If the flag you are searching for is not supported by this applet,
- please check the FlagLoad applet which loads any GIF/JPG flag.
-
- This applet is fully parametrized, so you can change the nation flag and
- change the intensity and speed of wind.
-
- ************************************************************************
-
- NECESSARY FILES.
-
- Apart from an optional foreground image, the following 3 ".class" files
- must be uploaded:
-
- AnFlag.class
- Lware.class
- anfy.class
-
- Plus, AnFlag.jar for speedy loading on recent browsers.

- INSTRUCTIONS.
-
-
- The following instructions describe how to change parameters:
-
- Note: Attempting to change the crdits parameter will disable the applet.
-
- To activate the "reg" parameters read the shareware registration notes.
- In the "regcode" parameter, place the registration code you purchased from
- the author. If the code is correct and the applet is run from the registered
- domain name, you can use "link" parameters to link to a URL when the applet
- is mouse-clicked.
-
- If you set "regnewframe" to "YES", you can specify a unique frame location
- for the reglink:
-
- "_blank" : To load the link in a new blank unnamed browser window.
- "_self" : To load the link into the same window the applet occupies.
- "_parent" : To load the link into the immediate FRAMESET parent.
- "_top" : To load the link into the top body of the window.
-
- You can also set a custom frame name, such as "myframe1".
-
- With the "overimg" parameter you can specify the name of an image that will
- be painted over the applet. The best options are transparent GIF images.
-
- NOTE: Animated GIF images are supported, but will be animated only on
- latest browsers (Netscape 4 and Explorer 4 or newer).
-
- With "overimgX" and "overimgY" you can center the image over the applet area.
-
- You can determine the width and height of the applet with the "width" and
- "height" parameters in the <applet> tag.
-
- The parameter "res" is the resizer and with any integer, you can strech
- the applet image. However, we have found that the best value is 1, because
- enlarging the screen causes poor display.
-
- You can change the background colour for best results on your web page.
- The RGB values are the same as those in HTML tags, but in purely decimal
- values without the "#" symbol.
-
- The style of painting may differ according to the value for the parameter
- "pattern":
-
- 1 = small dots
- 2 = double dots
- 3 = stars
- 4 = stars with center hole
- 5 = triangles
- 6 = triple dots
- 7 = triple dots dithered 1
- 8 = triple dots dithered 2
-
- The "speed" parameter will control the speed of the animation.
-
- The "curve" level will change the intensity of vertical waving.
-
- The "wind" value will change the meteorologic condition: 0 = no waving,
- and 20 = typhoon.
-
- The most important parameter is: "nation". The applet supports 34 flags
- of 34 nations, which you specify with a number as follows:
-
- 1 = Italy
- 2 = Spain
- 3 = France
- 4 = Ireland
- 5 = Austria
- 6 = Germany
- 7 = Netherlands (Holland)
- 8 = Belgium
- 9 = Luxembourg
- 10 = Sweden
- 11 = Norway
- 12 = Iceland
- 13 = Groenland
- 14 = Denmark
- 15 = Finland
- 16 = Poland
- 17 = Hungary
- 18 = Switzerland
- 19 = South Africa
- 20 = Russia
- 21 = Japan
- 22 = Israel
- 23 = Greece
- 24 = Usa
- 25 = Canada
- 26 = Australia
- 27 = New Zealand
- 28 = United Kingdom
- 29 = Argentina
- 30 = Peru'
- 31 = Venezuela
- 32 = Mexico
- 33 = Brazil
- 34 = Colombia
-
-
- The "pixdensity" parameter (1-20) determines the distance between plotted points.
- So, this works as another resolution parameter.
