No Way you might say. Yes, Way!
And probably many more, but here's one I've found,

Le Clever Animated JavaMouseOver Button!
This Java applet was crafted by Dave Griffiths and modified by myself to mimick the mouseOver function of JavaScripting...
It may be used in multiple instances to highlight different subjects... & also works quite well with MS Explorer.

Ah ha! - no Java!!!! Get some here How to implement it:
Required are an animation "strip": gif or jpg - and, residing in the same directory animBtn.class . . . Plus, of course, the applet itself inserted in the proper place in the HTML doc.

The applet can take the following PARAMETERS:
fps (Default 10) - Number of frames per second.
target (Default _top) - Target frame.
step1, step2, step3 (Default 1 in each case)
  These values set the number of frames in each of the three animations.
Step1: is when the mouse is not over the button,
Step2: when it is over the button, &
Step3: when the mouse is clicked.
  The frames of all the animations are stored in a single GIF or JPG image:
images (Default "anim.jpg") - The image file that stores all of the frames in-line, left to right. The images used for the buttons on this page are:

         


(These strips may hold a complete animation if desired.)

sound (Default N/A) - The .au sound file if desired.

Do you want to use it?
The above is a brief explanation of the applet. I have prepared a FAQ that covers the most common inquiries about this applet. Most likely, you will find an answer here to any problem you may be having.
