* Useful-if use it. And, of course, I am very interested in
* Enhancements you made to the script!
*
* purpose:generate buttons with text passed by parameter.
*
* Possible parameters to the script:
*button-input gif image. Just the part of the filename before the dot.
*the specified image file is expected in the same directory
*as this script resides in.
*font-font to-use (1-5) 1 is very small, 3 medium, 5 normal size.
*the script would automatically use a smaller the font if text is
*too long for selected size.) Default:5
*text-the text to is put on the button. would be centered.
*textcolor-color for the letters. Default:white.
*in This example code only blue, white and black are defined;
*but You can add custom colors easily.
*width,heigth-width and Heigth of the button. Useful only if Target
*button should have different size than source image.
*
* Example for usage:
*
* 'll look for yellow.gif and put the string ' Example ' on it.
*
* I use to have three buttons I normally generate (one displays selected
* Item, one is for mouseover (), and one is the default button). The source
* Images are yellow.gif, white.gif and blue.gif-so my script assumes
* Blue.gif as Default if "button=" not specified-you could wish to change
* This below, it's easy;)
