Question

I need to torch or light source effect on an image/div on my webpage without the use of Flash.

This is something similar to the light path effect on the main banner on this site:

Please advise.

You can do something like this using CSS:

EDIT: Posting code as requested in comment:

HTML

<div class="box"></div>​

CSS:

body {
    background:#000;
}

.box {
    margin:50px;
    width:150px;
    height:150px;
    border-radius:50px;
    background:#ef5d22;
}

.box:hover {
    margin:50px;
    width:150px;
    height:150px;
    background:#ef5d22;
    box-shadow: 0 0 20px #fff;
}

​

Hope that helps!
