Add Character To Your Web
Site!
MsAgent is a piece of Microsoft Windows® technology
that has lay dormant for many years. While some
applications have used it, most web functions have
never really been explored. We would like to "awaken
the beast" so to speak, by introducing you to MsAgent
Javascript Editor (MJE).
MJE is a point and click interface that allows you to
automatically create javascript routines that will use
MsAgent functions to bring your web site to life! Each
Agent can talk to your visitors, direct them to the
important areas on your site and help you promote a
certain product or service you offer.
Many
people are not even aware that MsAgent is included
with the Windows® operating system. The default
character of Merlin, is the only one included, but
there are 100s more available for download.
With MJE, webmasters can easily enhance their Web
pages with interactive personalities in the form of
animated characters. These characters can move freely
around the computer display, speak aloud (and by
displaying text onscreen), gesture, wink, wave and be
animated in many other ways to help get your message
out.
The
interface makes this very easy to create javascripts
that can be used on your web site. It will actually
embed the scripts for you automatically. The buttons
on the screen are clear and simple.
SHOW: This will make your Agent appear on the screen.
HIDE: This makes the Agent go away.
SHOW FAST: Agent appears instantly
HIDE FAST: Agent goes away instantly
MOVE: You can click on the Character and move him any
where on the screen and click the Move button. You
also can enter the X & Y coordinates.
PLAY: Each Agent has its own set of animations it can
play. Like doing Magic, or Announce, or Read, etc.
SPEAK: Whatever you have in the text box above, will
be spoken by your Agent.
THINK: Whatever you have in the text box will appear
in a balloon (like speak) but only words are shown.
WHISPER: Same as Speak but in a muffled voice.
SIZE: You can enter a certain size or percentage for
both width and height of the character.
TEST SCRIPT: Opens a browser so you can see what you
script will look like.
CLEAR SCRIPT: Removes all commands from the script
below.
EMBED SCRIPT: Will create all the javascript routines
needed and actually insert them into an existing file.
CLIPBOARD: Same as Embed, but only copies the created
routines to the clipboard, so you can manually place
it where you want in your files.
SAVE SCRIPT: Saves the current list of commands as a
MJE script.
WebMasters will be amazed at the response they will
get from users! These characters can take an ordinary
webpage and bring it to life with just a few simple
lines. Show visitors what is important on your site.
Direct them where to go to find additional information
about a certain product or service. Greet them and ask
them to sign up for your newsletter or download your
latest software creation. Tell them What to buy and
How to do it! The uses for MsAgent technology is
endless.
