 * Hi,
 * I have the following code working in a standard HTML page how do I get it to 
   work in a wordpress post?
 * What parts of the code do I put in the post and what parts of the code do I put
   in an external javasript .js file?
 * I would really appreciate if someone who knows javascript in wordpress to help
   to split the code up so that I can copy and paste into the post and an external
   javascript file.
 * Please HELP !!!
