If you have content that blinks, note the following:
-
The <blink> tag is not
in any W3C standard. Don't use it
-
Make sure that users can stop blinking objects
-
Use other ways to highlight text, such as presentation markup. For example:
Use text-transform (for uppercase,
lowercase, and capitalization)
Use text-shadow for shadow
effects
Use text-decoration for underlines,
overlines and blinking. Note: In CSS, text-decoration:
blink causes content to blink but users can stop the effect by turning off
style sheets or overriding the rule in a user style sheet
