I putting together some ideas on how to flash subliminal messages on a web page.

So far I've got a redirect that flashes a message before going to the real page.

If you want to download what I've written so far about it you can get it here. Don't worry. It's free. No sign in or anything:

My question:
Are there any other ways using php or html to flash hidden messages on a web page?

Thanks.

wouldn't just javascript and the timeout function accomplish this? have an image overlay on your page. in a js function tied to the onload, display the image for whatever, 30ms. then kill it's visibility by setting display: none;

It sounds like it would work great!!

Do you think one could use java to display a transparent image intermittently over a web page?

Unfortunately I'm no good at javascript. What are the resources you can send me to to develop this?

maybe its irrelevant, but exactly why do you want to use subliminal messaging? i cant really say its against netiquette but if i happened to read the source code of a page trying to brainwash me id consider it a bit rude, and likely discontinue use.

I have a long interest in influence and persuasion... including so called "mind control". That includes subliminals

The whole point of doing this is to find out for myself.
I want to have something that I can *TEST*.

I am really ....REALLY .... tired of people telling me it doesn't work without quoting me statistical evidence, quoting sources or giving me anything other
than hearsay or opinion.

So I want to test it myself in a controlled enviornment.

Besides a 2% increase is still an increase.

I wouldn't use *java*, I would use *javascript*. There is a big difference. And yes, javascript was designed to carry out tasks without the client resubmitting to the server, hence it is a *client-side scripting language.*

Check out jQuery, if your javascript knowledge is limited.

my opinion has nothing to do with it working or not working, i just personally think its wrong. you want to use mind control in order to control who and for what purpose?

id love to know what URL(s) you intend on adding this to, just so i can steer clear.

the idea of controlling people without their consent.. are you a fan of slavery?

p.s. your foil hat is crooked.

Please don't waste my time with your judgment.
Just get on with your life.

I'm now posing the question to anyone else who is curious and open minded.

Subliminal messages were banned by the government in theaters and media for a reason.

To answer your question, A web browser was not designed to raster images as fast as you'd need to, to make them subliminally possible. Why not look how Java performs rastering operations on a pragmatic front and see how this is not possible?

Subliminal messaging is a very taboo subject. You see it might not always be bad but throughout the history it has been known to be mostly used for propaganda. That lead the general population to completely dislike the idea of subliminal messages. As you are so familiar with the subject you shouldn't simply tell people off that do not agree with you but try and explain it to them a little more, i mean it should be obvious to you that many people will disagree with your idea anyhow. That being said it is possible to show images for a very short period as some one above me mentioned... However I wouldn't imagine that being the best method, but you should know since you wrote a whole book on this.
