"Blink tag"Is one of the HTML commands with the effect of blinking text and is known as one of the most disliked tags for many people. Although it was originally implemented in Netscape Navigator 2.0, IE was not originally supported, and in 2013Fifefox obsolete blink tag supportSometimes I have not seen anything recently. The inventor of such Blink tag himself talks about a funny funny development secret story "Why did you develop the blink tag?"

The origin of theTag - www

In 1994, Lou was one of the engineers who founded Netscape, a text-based browser that pioneered the current popular browser "Lynx"Was developed. Engineers including Mr. Lou at Netscape spend a lot of time spending devising applications suitable for the future of the web and technology - new classes of documents, etc. As a result, "HTML Table", "SSL", "JavaScript" etc. It was said that it was made.

One summer evening, Mr. Lou went to the bar in Mountain View to relax with his colleagues. So we talked about Lynx's inability to display many HTML extensions, in which Mr. Lu talked about the joke as saying, "Would you like to make Lynx's own one if you tag a text?" And what happens when the text flashes I thought it was a big laugh. The next morning, Lou who came to the office found text blinking in the screen. What is it all about? One of the engineers who liked the joke last night returned to the office and installed the blink tag overnight.

"Thiseaster eggContrary to Mr. Lou's optimistic expectation that nobody would use something like "When deliberately released Netscape Navigator 1.0, it should have not documented the functionality of the blink tag on purpose, The blink tag has been leaked from somewhere. As a result, texts and advertisements such as "Please see here", "Buy this item", "check this!" Have started flashing like Las Vegas all over the world.

After that, as for the blink tag, criticism was written to bulletin boards and forums all over the world as "the most disliked tag", and it became fake that wears a huge disgrace. Mr. Lou says, "I am certain that it is the originator of the blink tag, but I'd like to declare that I did not actually write the code, I would like to say that I did not really want to blink the text."
