Q: My friend has animated images when he views
certain sites, but if I view the same site, I do not see the animated
images. Why don't I see them?
A: First, you need a browser that supports
animated gifs, such as Netscape 2.0
or later, and Microsoft Explorer 3.0.
Second, if you are using Netscape, make sure under OPTIONS | NETWORK
PREFERENCES you have your memory cache set to at least 500 so that your
computer has the memory designated to show animated gifs. Animated images
can be found right on the
home page of this site, in which the various
Warner-Lambert products display in rotation.
Q: Do all browsers support Javascript?
A: Currently, only Netscape 2.0 or greater
and Microsoft Explorer 3.0 or greater support the Javascript language.
However, Microsoft's Explorer version of Javascript is still buggy.
Also, Netscape 3.0 test versions have some Javascript bugs in them sometimes.
An example of Javascript on the Warner-Lambert site would be the
interactive Body
Mass Index calculations.
Q: Do all browsers support Java?
A: Both Netscape 2.0 or greater and Microsoft's
Explorer 3.0 provide Java support. An example of Java on the
Warner-Lambert site would be the Warner-Lambert Stock Ticker.
Q: What is RealAudio? How can I get a RealAudio
player?
A: RealAudio is an online audio format that
compresses audio files for faster transmission. What is nice about RealAudio
is that a user does not have to download the entire audio file and then play
it. Instead, the audio file begins playing almost the minute the user clicks
on the audio link. RealAudio players are available from
Progressive Networks, along with
technical support. An example of RealAudio on the Warner-Lambert site would
be the President's Welcome message.
Q: What about these plug-ins I keep hearing about? What are they, and what browsers support them?
A: Both Netscape and Microsoft Explorer support
plug-ins, which are various programs (usually multimedia-based) that perform
right inside a web page (as opposed to loading into a completely new window).
RealAudio supports a plug-in (as seen on our
President's Welcome
message) in which the audio console controls appear right on the web page!
Other popular plug-ins include Macromedia's
Shockwave, for playing multimedia
presentations, and Adobe's Acrobat Reader,
which allows users to view PDF documents.
