This page was created with the WebTv Webpage author in mind. Most of these tags are WebTv specific, meaning that the HTML tricks will not look the same on a PC. Remember that all romcache images and sounds will not be seen or heard by a PC user,if you are designing a site directed towards a WebTv audience this page will be a vital reference so be sure and bookmark it!

The transition tags:
You may have visited fellow WebTv owners webpages and noticed that when you clicked on a link the next page loaded by zooming in or the page wiping,these are called page transitions,the tag is as follows:
<a href=filename TRANSITION=transition type>
TRANSITION TYPES:

WebTv logos and sounds:
You can find these in romcache,when linking to them it would look like:
<img src="///romcache/webtvlogojewel.gif">
Notice the three slashes after the http.
You can find images at:
<file://romcache/index.html>
You can find WebTv sounds at:
<file://romcache/music/index.html>.
"I have seen pages load automatically,how do I do this?
<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="5;URL=filename">
This would load another file you specify in 5 seconds.
Add a clock:
<clock,hour,minute>
Hide the options bar:
<display hideoptions>
Eliminate scrolling option:
<display noscroll>
Add The Audioscope
<audioscope>
