I'm currently working on a personal site, the first that I have managed to construct and code all on my own. One of its distinctive aspects is the transparent div layers it features. The site is best viewed in FireFox, but as many softcore surfers wouldn't think of downloading anything other than the browser their computer came with, I'm doing my best to format it to work in other browsers as well.
So far, there are many flaws with it, I am aware, but I believe only one of them belongs in the Javascript area, and that's the only one I'm addressing here, unless you have any other script solutions.
Now, I don't know if this happens for everyone, but when I view my site in IE, a little Windows security popup comes up saying there is blocked active content. Apparently, it's referring to my transparent tables, because when I allow the content, the transparency shows up. First of all, it would be nice if some people went there on IE to see if it has the same effect for everyone. The url is this: http://www.wiseowlcreations.biz Be sure to go to the IE version, because for some reason, Windows is known to be fine with the tansparency until I get to the IE version. Please let me know if Windows alerts you like it did me.
If enough people report that it doesn't, this is kind of a moot point. But here I'll get to my original reason for posting. Does anyone know of a javascript alert that will only show itself to a person the first time their IP address has visited the site? I'd like to have an effective way to let my visitors know what they're missing without cluttering my page. Please let me know if you have any suggestions.
Much appreciated,
Karira
