make a series of vertically tiled animation frames for both lava and water.
name them:

custom_lava_still.png
custom_lava_flowing.png
custom_water_still.png
custom_water_flowing.png

sling them into your texture pack's zip

then download McPatcher by Xau.

highlight the custom water and lava and animated water and lava options. Patch your game. Voila!

it's actually a little more complicated than that if you want it to animate properly...and you want the width to match the size of the pack..if it's 32x..make it 32 wide..for the length to animate properly..do 32x32 and just fill with the texture..for the flowing water..stretch the canvas 2 squares down,select the entire water and stretch it down to the bottom. for flowing lava only expand 1 square down. 1 square would be 32.. hope that helps

edit: I really need to make that tutorial I keep saying I'm gonna make for simple/advanced water animation.

i don't know the size. it's just the default minecraft 1.4 size

16x16.. so 16p wide and 256 long for still water/lava..16 and 288 for flowing water.. 16 and 272 for flowing lava.. might wanna check my math...lol I fail at it hard.
