Javascript Text Effects

The JavaScript library TextEffect.class.js can be used to perform various effects on any piece of text within a document.   The 4 effects that have be implemented so far are: disperse, assemble, fade-in and fade-out.  If I can think of more I will add them.

Limitations:

• The tag containing the text cannot contain any markup
• Starts to slow down dramatically with a large amount of text

Features:

• Supported (tested) in IE6, Firefox2 and Opera 9
• More than one ‘TextEffect’ object can exist on a page without interferring with each other.
• Code should be non-intrusive and fail gracefully.
