You’re just going to love this one! I’m sure you’ve heard of subliminal advertising before. You know it’s when words or images would flash up on the screen to persuade your subconscious mind to act.

Well, I’ve got an interesting twist on this idea that could be very effective and might help to encourage your potential customers to take certain actions on your website.

Have you ever seen those ticker tape messages that appear at the bottom of your web browsers window? If you’ve not follow this link and you can see an example of the script I’m about to give to you.

Can you see any potential here for subliminally commanding someone to “try your product risk free today”?

I’ll let your marketing skills put this script to the most effective use

Here’s how to install today’s script…

A. Select all of the text in the first box below then copy to clipboard (Ctrl+c) then paste (Ctrl+v) it above the </head> tag of your HTML source code.

<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
<!--
  // Script created by http://icoder.com
  // Subscribe to freescripts@icoder.com for this
  // and many other essential web site scripts.

  scrollingDelay = 100; // milliseconds per character
  scrollingText = "Place here your scrolling text";

  function scrollStatus() {
    if (scrolling_text.length > ++scrolling_count) {
      window.status = scrolling_text.substr(scrolling_count,
        blank_text.length + scrolling_count);
    } else scrolling_count = 0;
    setTimeout("scrollStatus()", scrollingDelay);
  }
  blank_text = (new Array(20)).join("     ");
  scrolling_text = blank_text + scrollingText;
  scrolling_count = 0;
  scrollStatus();
//-->
</script>

B. You should place your text in the line:
scrollingText = "Place here your scrolling text";
You can edit the scrollingDelay to change the scrolling speed.
(default is 100.)

That’s all there is to it, follow this link and you can see how it should look when you’ve installed it on your web page.

Simply follow the short instructions below and before you know it you’ll have an active deadline date counting down the days until your offer expires.

So where’s the twist?

What’s extra special about this unique code is as soon as the offer is over the HTML code you placed inside this script will no longer be seen on your website.

For example inside the HTML code could be an order button giving your visitors the chance to order at a discount. As soon as the special offer date has been reached the discount order button just disappears!

Here is some more information about JavaScripts and how to install them.

Getting your Web page to respond or react directly to user interaction with form elements is the main purpose of a JavaScript-program.

“Why JavaScript?” - you say.
“I have powerful CGI and PHP scripts on my server!”.

Well…

Why JavaScript?

Do you need to open a PopUp or PopUnder window when your website visitor enters or leaves your site?

Do you need to validate a form before it’s submitted to a server?

Only a JavaScript-program can help you in this cases.

Only a JavaScript-program can detect user activity and react with tasks you need. CGI and PHP scripts cannot.

Only a JavaScript-program can recognize your web page loading and open a PopUp or PopUnder window. CGI and PHP scripts cannot.

A JavaScript-program has the ability to process many other events such as a selection of list-items or filling out forms. CGI or PHP can do neither of these things.

Also, JavaScript is suitable for form validation before sending the information gathered to server. CGI or PHP can only do this after.
