What is the Questionmarket?
Well, I mean besides 'an ad'. Sometimes while on PSOW a yellow triangle slides onto the page and proceeds to sit in the 'middle' of it for a while, then vanishes on its own. It would clog it up from reading the words, but I just read over/under it. This triangle of mystery also 'slides' when you scroll the page. It causes me to become curious (I never press it, because I dont want to take a survey, and am afraid it might produce more of itself if I do)
Is this something PSOW did on purpose to gather money to support itself?
How does it work?
It is not a pop up window or else it would get blocked...so what exactly IS it?
Does anyone else see it?
If another company (like those banners that get giant by accident sometimes on here) did it, it must be horribly complex to do something that runs on someone elses' web and then reports back to you when clicked like that thing.
It resembles to me a "Floating Box" which is a tool you can use in GoLive which I am just learning about and could be put to good/fun use possibly on my sites. These are page elements that can 'float' over other elements like pictures text boxes etc. and can contain all sorts of things, and even animate or be layered. Do you think it's a floating box? Was PSOW made in GoLive?
Obviously parts of it are transparent because you can't do triangles but even the invisible parts are clickable.
This isn't a complaint it is just a curiosity and possibly an inspiration to make some fun animated-ish content for my site if I figure out how to work the floating boxes of GoLive. If anywhere could explain this bermuda triangle, I figure it'd be here.
