Hej!

I just wanted to show this wonderful page that llizard made for me:

http://jota.sm.luth.se:80/~e93-vkn/docs/monster.html

(the joke is that I have a couple of "rubbish bins" on my homepage where
I put all sorts of things and one day I discovered that llizard had a
habit of going through them looking for "goodies"...)

:)

It works for me.

I have just changed the size of the window to see if that helps but...

Drat!! Window size makes no difference. It seems that Internet Explorer 
doesn't like my characters and/or my html code. The only way you can see the 
animation is to view it in Netscape.

Oh how sad!  Eric, are you using Internet Explorer? I'll do some experimenting 
with the window size to see if that will resolve the problem. But if you view 
it in Netscape, the animation works fine.

Excuse me for keeping on replying to my own messages, but here is an update.

For some reason, Internet Explorer doesn't accept the blinking " % " on the 
green lizard at the top of the page either. I checked with another blinking 
ascii and found the same problem. Again, it works fine in Netscape. 

Hmmm. Very distressing. (I KNEW there was a reason to distrust Internet 
Explorer!)
