jaymc Posted November 2, 2007 Share Posted November 2, 2007 For anyone that uses ICQ or MSN, when the window is minimized and you get a new message, it flashes colour If you have XP it flashes orange by default I want to replicate the same sort of thing I think.. if the window is minimized and an alert is sent it flashes by deault as there is new activity. Dont quote me on it though. This is kind of what I want though Obviously there isnt something that says setimeout(make tab flash) but if something is change when the window is minimized Im pretty sure windows kicks in and makes it flash Would be greatful for advice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fenway Posted November 2, 2007 Share Posted November 2, 2007 You can't -- that would be controlling the client windowing environment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaymc Posted November 2, 2007 Author Share Posted November 2, 2007 But as per my alert() example which obviously windows interacts with, it will make the tab flash Obviously I dont want an alert, but maybe another way around it even if it is a bit of a trick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fenway Posted November 2, 2007 Share Posted November 2, 2007 You could try opening a tiny window and closing it right away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
