Overview Evaluation Questions Solutions


Solutions: Checkpoint J, flicker

Flashing or flickering elements are usually added through technologies such as animated gif's, Java applets, or third-party plug-ins or applications. Java applets and third party plug-ins can be identified by the presence of <APPLET> or <OBJECT> tags. You also should not use the <BLINK> or <MARQUEE> tag to make text blink or move.

Elements that ficker should be avoided.
