That will be why its not working then. Is their no other way to do it?

Yeah you can use jquery blink plugin.
see the demo >> http://sunjava1.site90.net/memberlist.php

Instructions:
add this code to headerinclude template ( ACP >> template >> your template >> ungrouped Template >> headerinclude )

<script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.3.2/jquery.min.js"></script>


<script src="jscripts/jquery-1.3.2.min.js" language="javascript" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script src="jscripts/jquery-blink.js" language="javscript" type="text/javascript"></script>
 
<script type="text/javascript" language="javascript">
 
$(document).ready(function()
{
        $('.blink').blink(); // default is 500ms blink interval.
        //$('.blink').blink({delay:100}); // causes a 100ms blink interval.
});
 
</script>

Download the attachment and upload js files in jscripts directory.

Then add this code to blink your text

<span class="blink">{username}</span>
