Contour

This applet makes vertical control panels for the web pages. You can use any buttons (in GIF or JPG format) for it - all you need is one button , it also works even without buttons (like one above). You can have up to 20 buttons on one panel, if you need more you can connect two applets.Please write me if you find any bugs.

If you don't have any buttons and want the applet look like the left one then just copy the following text to your page and change the parameters with names of the buttons ,values of URLs and height parameter, you also can change the other parameters like fontsize and colors (specially "backcolor" that defines background):

But the best way is to use your own buttons and upload the applet from you own site . To do it copy the "Contour.class" file to the directory of your site, then download the image that you'd like to use as a button to the same directory.Copy one of the html sections above to yuor site and customize it. Change the codebase URL - it should link to your site directory where are the image and the "Contour.class" files. Calculate the width and height parameters (width=button width, height=button height*button number + 10 *(button number - 1 )) if you don't have buttons then define the "but_height" parameter.

`Param name`	`Value example`	`Default value`	`Comments`
button	mybutton.JPG	no button	A name of any image in JPG or GIF format
name1..name20	guestbook	no	You can use up to 20 parameters to define the text on the buttons,use it separated:name1,name2,...etc.
link1..link20	http://www.mysite.com	no	You can use up to 20 parameters to define the URLs of the buttons,use it separated:link1,link2,...etc.
fontsize	15	18	A number that defines a font size
width	80	150	Menu width, usually equals the button width
height	183	170	Menu height,usually equals (button height*button number + 10 (button number - 1))
but_height	25	50	Button height if no image is define as a button (no "button" parameter found)
wait	200	100	A number of milliseconds to stop when moving the triangle.
win_name	contents	current window	The name of window where to open the defined URLs, if there is no this parameter then URL is opened in current browser window.
backcolor	green	black	The name of color to use as the background.Only the main colors are supported. If the color is not found in the collection then default color is applied.
fontcolor	gray	pink	The name of color to use it on the titles of the buttons
