fading effect between pages ??

[darkjedi]

A member of ours requested that we add something that would make our pages fade into each other rather than the standard "click the link and the next page pops up" transition....would anyone know how to do this ?

I'm not sure we'll use it, but I'd like to at least see what it looks like for them.

Wouldnt this requirea Javascript thingy, or perhaps Flash?

With some basic javascript you can achieve this effect rather easily... I don't know how to do it myself but I'm sure you could find it at some javascript website.

Actually, it requires Page Transitions that were introduced in IE 4.0. You don't need javascript or flash as they can be accessed through a Meta tag or even CSS.

You can find out more about them at http://www.dynamicdrive.com in the page effects section. You can also read about them at http://msdn.microsoft.com.

If you want to see a simple transition working, you can look at http://www.witchesgrove.com and simply mouse over the tabs at the top of the page.
