Animating Images

Does anyone know if you can make images fade within Dreamweaver? I can move
them, however, I can't seem to make them fade to on or off. I've also been
trying to animate with the visibility tool. It works in Dreamweaver and in the
Timeline, but when I preview the page, nothing happens.

Fading is not an HTML function. You would need to use javascript to achieve
this in IE only, or use a Java applet to achieve it in all browsers.
Neither of these is a particularly good option.

I've also been
trying to animate with the visibility tool. It works in Dreamweaver and
in the
Timeline, but when I preview the page, nothing happens.

Probably because you haven't told the page to play the timeline. Can you
show me your body tag, please?

Murray,

FYI: "*Your* body tag" could as well mean a private tattoo to kids under
50. "*The* body tag" might keep them thinking about web design, though.
What's the world coming to...?

Make a fading image in Flash or an animated gif in Fireworks or ImageReady.

As in fade-in and out? No. No real consistent way to do this with DHTML
efficiently.

I'd suggest using Flash for this. Check out
http://www.pga.com/pgachampionship/2004/
for an example.

One of those beautiful and highly appropriate uses of flash, IMHO.
