* Author  : Roy Whittle  (Roy@Whittle.com) www.Roy.Whittle.com
*
* Purpose : To create fading text descriptions
*
* History
* Date         Version        Description
*
* 2000-05-28	1.0		Initial version. Based on the State Transition
*					Diagram created for animated rollovers I
*					modified the code to fade text.
* 2000-05-29	1.1		I did not follow the STD correctly and introduced
*					a bug that left objects in the ON state.
*					This is now corrected.
* 2000-06-07	1.2		Introduced a start colour so that the script
*					can be used on different backgrounds.
*					Change the var AnimationRunning and FrameInterval
*					so they don't conflict with animate2.js
* 2000-08-09	1.3		Added Gecko ( Netscape 6 Preview Release 1 ) support
*					- Ken workman k.workman@3DASA.com
* 2000-10-15	1.4		Modified to make Netscpe 6 (PR3) more efficient
*					by just changing the color instead of replacing
*					the whole content of the DIV.
