Wow! Both of the following blink fine in Netscape, but neither blinks in Internet Explorer 5!!

var enter = "Enter: "
...

document.writeln(enter.blink())
document.writeln ("<blink>Enter: </blink>") 

Note: blink is a Netscape extension to the HTML specification - this is why it does not work in Internet Explorer
