Mouse & Cursor Trailers

Saturday, 09 July 2005 06:26pm

Often referred to as Mouse/Cursor Trailers or Trackers... simply for the reason that they follow the movement of your mouse/cursor.. makes sense doesn't it! They definately add flair and personality to a site but don't forget that some people will find them quite irritaTing, especially if they're on every page! Dynamic Drive (as with others) have taken the 'irritation factor' into consideration and authors are creating and posting scripts that will fade out after a certain amount of time!

Remember....please DO NOT take the bees (or the script!) off this site, the graphics are © bee.geek.nz & WackyB.co.nz. The scripts are © their respective owners, please visit the site concerned to get a copy of it for yourself.

Links to the examples will open in a new browser window so if you have a popup blocker you'll need to temporarily disable it (or all bee.geek.nz to the "allow" list :)

these ONLY work in IE (Internet Explorer)
