• Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.

Hey guys,

How would I make new.gif display only if the person hasn't viewed the page since it was updated?3

For example:

Person views the page.
Webmaster updates the page with some news.
Person views the page again and sees the new.gif image displayed in front of the new news.
Person views the page later and no longer sees the new.gif image.

I've seen this done before, but I cannot find the script anywhere.
 
most likley puts cookies into the users computer to track it.
 
I never did one sorry about that, I just figured thats what they do.

Right. Now tell me how to do it.
well. there's a critical piece of information missing. What language are you using.
 
English!


Ha ha ha.

I'm usign html, but I could change it to an .asp page if necessary. I am not using .php or .net.
 
you won't be able to do it with plain html and i highly doubt javascript. if you know asp, then great, you can use that. i personally konw and recommend php.
 
The problem I'm going to have is that the page I want this to appear on is currently html, and part of a larger page that has shared borders.

I've noticed when adding some scripts that they don't work because of the shared borders.

Could you maybe point me to the script and I can try it?
