Filters And Transitions In IE5 (
Page 1 of 9 )
You may not know this, but Internet Explorer 4.x and above has
image manipulation capabilities similar to those normally found only in
image editing programs like Adobe Photoshop. This article takes a look at
IE5's image filters, and demonstrates how they can help you add special
effects to your images and text on the fly.Not too long back, this column demonstrated how PHP's image-generation
capabilities on the server side could be used to create simple GIF or JPEG
images that responded dynamically to text input. This week, I'm going to help
you take a few more graphic artists off your payroll by demonstrating some
powerful tricks on the client side of things, with some of the powerful special
effects that ship as a part of Microsoft Internet Explorer 4.x and
above.
Yup, you read that right - the image filters and transitions
you'll be learning about over the next few pages will not work, no how now way,
in Netscape Navigator 4.x. You have been warned!
