Data File Typewriter Content

The Advanced Typewriter Text Effect can set read all the text to be displayed from either a Plain Text File or a Server Side Process (eg. PHP, JSP, ASP, Perl etc). The parameter which specifies the location of the data is "dataURL", eg:-

<param name="dataURL" value="textdata.txt">
(Please Note: File names are case sensitive ie. "textdata.txt" is not the same as "TextData.txt")

To create your data file, simply open up your favorite text editor (eg. Notepad) and add the text you wish to be displayed. Now save the file as 'textdata.txt' in the same directory as your web page.
(If you choose to use a different filename or location remember to change the 'dataURL' parameter to reflect this.)

In addition to plain text, the Advanced Typewriter Text Effect allows you to add to special functions to the text. These are achieved by adding Special Instructions (Tags) within the text file. The possible tags and there function are listed in the table below:-
