Stop Animation with HTML
Does anyone no if there is an HTML code that will stop an animation after a number of rotations or actions....
I have some animation on a business Intranet site, and it has been requested that the animation run a few times and then stop...but that it will restart once the page is refreshed...
Any suggestions would be welcomed!
Thank you

What sort of aminations?
When you create animated gifs you can usually set the number
of times the animtion will loop.

What about animations that you have not created?
Is there a way to stop the animation after so many loops, or is that only with those that you personally created?

I'm not aware of any way of specifying the number of loops using script.
but it should just be a matter of getting some freeware gif editor,
opening the file changing the settings and saving it again.

this is what i would try doing, assuming you want a animated gif.
you need 2 image files(the animated gif, and a static gif)
then when you load the page you have the animated gif playing
<img src="anim.gif" name="foo">
then you need a setTimeOut function that will trigger a function
that will replace the anim.gif with static.gif)
function swi() {
document.images['foo'].src='static.gif';
}
in you <head>
a = setTimeOut("swi()",5000); //this will call the function after seconds
my example is not tested but should give you one way of dealing with the problem
