Oh, I'm having a blast from the past. Did you know that Firefox supports blink?

I'm having too much fun today from a satirical point of view and using <span class="blink">Blinking Text Here</span> has added to my satire! ;)

I hear Firefox also supports animated GIFs and bevelled borders. Hang on a minute, the phone's ringing...

... it was the 90's. They said they'd be happy to answer any web design questions we might have.

;-)

(But surely you meant

<span style="text-decoration:blink">blink</span>
?)

Nope. I don't use inline styles, too much code bloat. I prefer external style sheets.

.blink{
text-decoration:blink;
}

P1R, I think you missed zCat's *90's* sarcasm there ;)

Ah, but you didn't include this in the <head> of your original post, which caused me to go into quirks mode ;-).

Darn, darn, darn, darn, darn... Herman from The Munsters

Why doesn't IE support the Blink Element? They support all the other nifty little features like page transitions, scrollbar colors, etc. but not Blink. Bummer!

Ah, thanks DrDoc! Do you think that matches the quality effect of the Blink Element?

Dude, you are awesome! I didn't even think of that. How do you think users would react to that particular implementation?
