I am looking for a HTML command line effect.

Basically, I am creating a 404 page, and I want to put in a fake command line that displays new text every second or two. Is this possible, or am I wasting my time?

I may need to do this with Flash, but I prefer not to.

Any ideas?

    Javascript would be trivial, smth like:

    <html>
    <head>
    <script type="text/javascript">
    <!--
    function refreshparentclose()
    {
     window.opener.location.reload();
     window.close();
    }
    
    -->
    </script>
    
    </head>
    <body onload="setTimeout('refreshparentclose();', 3000);" >
    <br>
    Boo!
    
    
    </body>
    

    Replace “window.close” with generating “command” to display. Flash is overkill here.
