iPanner Image Panning Applet
The iPanner
applet is an extremely simple-to-use image panner.
Other than Notice and KeyCode parameters, just
give it an image,
and it runs... a great pro tool of course,
but also a fine choice for Java newcomers!
iPanner is
linkable (url and target or frame), and also has
(optional)
parameters to control start direction, speed, and
mouse reaction.
The demo
(everything here is included in the download)
shows iPanner
used in a simple HTML table with a graphic for a
background for dress.
You can view the
documentation for iPanner here.

Tech Note:
Making Seamless Images
You can use any
image (compressed .jpg's work best), and it really
isn't
necessary to use a "seamless"
image. However, this is often desirable,
to give the impression of a continuous landscape.
Most of the
better graphics editors provide tools for
this. PSP users will note
"Selections | Convert to Seamless
Pattern". Other editors offer similar
features.
However, a
little ingenuity with any image editor can produce
the effect.
The trick is just to have the left and right
picture edges the same.
One simple way to do this is to fade to white (or
black) at edges; another
is to make mirror images of your graphic, and
combine them end to end.

iPanner is fully compatible with all
standard browsers
(Netscape, FireFox, Internet Explorer, etc.)
