// Basic Element Animator (04-October-2008) DRAFT
// by Vic Phillips http://www.vicsjavascripts.org.uk

// To progressively change the Left, Top, Width, Height or Opacity of an element over a specified period of time.

// **** Application Notes

// **** The HTML Code
//
// when moving an element the inline or class rule style position of the element should be assigned as
// 'position:relative;' or 'position:absolute;'
//
// The element would normally be assigned a unique ID name.
//

// **** Executing the Effect(Script)
//
// The effect is executed by an event call to function 'zxcBAnimator('left','tst1',20,260,2000);'
// where:
// parameter 0 = the mode(see Note 1).                                                                     (string)
// parameter 1 = the unique ID name or element object.                                                     (string or element object)
// parameter 2 = the start position of the effect.                                                         (digits, for opacity minimum 0, maximum 100)
// parameter 3 = the finish position of the effect.                                                        (digits, for opacity minimum 0, maximum 100)
// parameter 4 = (optional) period of time between the start and finish of the effect in milliseconds.     (digits or defaults to 2000 milliSeconds)
//
//  Note 1:  The default units(excepting opacity) are 'px'.
//  Note 2:  Examples modes: 'left', 'top', 'width', 'height', 'opacity.
//           For hyphenated modes, the first character after the hyphen must be upper case, all others lower case.
//  Note 3:  To 'toggle' the effect include '#' in parameter 0.
//           The first call will set the toggle parameters.
//           Subsequent calls with '#' in parameter 0 and the same start and finish parameters will 'toggle' the effect.
//  Note 4:  The function may be re-executed with a different set of parameters (start/finish time or period)
//           whenever required, say from an onclick/mouseover/out event.
//           The period parameter will be retained unless re-specified.
//
// **** Advanced Applications
//
//  It may be required to access the current value of the effect.
//  The element effect is accessible from the element property
//  element effect = elementobject[mode.replace(/[-#]/g,'')+'oop'];
//  where mode is parameter 0 of the initial call.
//  An array storing the current, start and finish values of the element effect may be accessed
//  from the element effect.data as fields 0, 1 and 2 respectively
//

// **** General
//
// All variable, function etc. names are prefixed with 'zxc' to minimise conflicts with other JavaScripts.
// These characters may be changed to characters of choice using global find and replace.
//
// The Functional Code(about 2K) is best as an External JavaScript.
//
// Tested with IE7 and Mozilla FireFox on a PC.
//



// **** Functional Code - NO NEED to Change

TextAry[1]='PKF NA is cutting edge as far as the services provided and the resources available. You would have a hard time finding a non-Big Four network that has the depth of resources we have access to.<br  />Steven Lutz, Partner<br  />Wolf & Company LLP';
TextAry[2]='We have had three people go through the PKF NA Leadership Development Program so far. After the program, they have a better feel for what the firm is trying to do, and they have a stronger voice in challenging us to improve. Also, the camaraderie they build with peers in other firms is a strong benefit that will last for years as they continue to grow as leaders.<br  />William Cloppert, Managing Partner<br  />Barnes, Dennig & Co., Ltd.';
TextAry[3]='PKF NA gives us the drawing power of a national firm when it comes to resources. In one case, we were able to demonstrate expertise in a particular area through one of our PKF members in Boston, and we got the project. If it weren&#39;t for the strength at the PKF national level, we wouldn&#39;t have gotten that work.<br  />James E.

TextAry[4]='We used RETAIN [employee retention tool] about two years ago and are going through the process again right now. The results from the survey have been extremely valuable and helped us discover some areas we need to focus on, in terms of staff development, which we were previously unaware of.<br  />Deborah Sessions, Partner<br  />Porter Keadle Moore, LLP';
TextAry[5]='The interaction with other members has been very helpful. We share ideas and materials &#150; for example, firms will share reports they have created, which we can adapt for our own use without having to create it from scratch.<br  />Adam Herman, Shareholder<br  />Mueller Prost, P.C.';
