Highlight effect like Scriptaculous

Gives highlight effect for the elements.

Usage: params - el, start_color, end_color, duration (millis) [, restore_background_image]

Code:

---

HighlightEffect.highlight(field.el(), "FFD700", "EEE8AA", 2000);

---

Code:

---

public class HighlightEffect extends SingleStyleEffect {

    private int[] base = new int[3];
    private int[] delta = new int[3];

    private String backgroundImage;
    private boolean restoreBackgroundImage;

    public static void highlight(El el, String from, String to, int duration) {
        highlight(el, from, to, duration, true);
    }

    public static void highlight(El el, String from, String to, int duration, boolean restoreBackgroundImage) {
        new Fx().run(duration, new HighlightEffect(el, from, to, restoreBackgroundImage));
    }
   
    protected HighlightEffect(El el, String from, String to, boolean restoreBackgroundImage) {
        super(el);
        this.restoreBackgroundImage = restoreBackgroundImage;
        for (int i = 0; i < 3; i++) {
            int b = Integer.parseInt(from.substring(i * 2, (i + 1) * 2), 16);
            int e = Integer.parseInt(to.substring(i * 2, (i + 1) * 2), 16);
            base[i] = b;
            delta[i] = e - b;
        }
    }

    @Override
    public void onUpdate(double progress) {
        StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder(7).append("#");
        for (int i = 0; i < 3; i++) {
            String v = Integer.toHexString((int) (base[i] + delta[i] * progress));
            sb.append((v.length() < 2) ? "0" : "").append(v);
        }
        el.setStyleAttribute("background-color", sb.toString());
    }

    @Override
    public void onStart() {
        this.backgroundImage = el.getStyleAttribute("background-image");
        el.setStyleAttribute("background-image", "none");
    }

    @Override
    public void onComplete() {
        if (restoreBackgroundImage) {
            el.setStyleAttribute("background-image", this.backgroundImage);
        }
    }
}

hello spambot,

i looked over the code and find that there a more pretty strange spam links in your footer ;-)

I a trying to make a chat room for a new site design.
So far to show my enterys i have
<?php
require('../PHP/mysql.php');

$settings = mysql_connect($database_comp,$database_user,$database_pass);
if (!$settings)
{
die('Could not connect: ' . mysql_error());
}

mysql_select_db($database_db, $settings);

$chat = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM room1");

while($show = mysql_fetch_array($chat))
{
echo '<tr>';
echo '<td width="75">'.$show['username'].' : </td>';
echo '<td width="355"><div align="left">'.$show['text'].'</div></td>';
echo '</tr>';
}

mysql_close($settings);
?>
What i would like help with is that if people no html they can put it in so is there a way i can let them choose a style but they cant enter html.
