Java applet that types the text from a file. It automatically formats the text to wrap around the bounding box. When the typer reaches the bottom of the screen, it will scroll up one line. Other configurable features include background / foreground / font colors, font face / size, typing speed, background image, etc.
[Parameters]: Cut and paste the code in this commented HTML exmaple, TypeText.html and open the file TypeText.txt to it is used. Only one keyword is available - for a line break.
[Tips]: The only functionality is when you move the mouse onto the panel, the typing will pause.
The Advanced Typewriter Scroll Java applet is available as part of Popular Applets Collection.
You can use the applet freely to enhance your web pages (commercial or non-commercial). However, I placed a status bar warning that will appear when the applet is online on a site and regcode parameter isn't correct.
