Scrolling News Box

A

Adamus01

I've already asked this, but I didn't get very far last time...

How do I create a scrolling box, in which I can type news, on my site. Not
one for people to write in, but one for me to type news in, in Frontpage, and
then publish to the net.

If you are unsure of what i'm talking about, go to
http://www.wakingashland.com/body.html and see the news box on their
homepage. That's what i'm after.

Please help, however you can.

Thanks.

I checked out this site and just get some green wallpaper with a black
paisley pattern on it. Couldn't you use the scrolling marquee facility?

Hi Adamum,

The example you gave uses an iFrame. Unfortunately if you have site visitors
whose browsers either don't support frames or have frames turned off, they
won't see your news content.

Try using <Div> instead.

Example HTML here. This is inside a table set to 34%. You could place it in
an existing table or simply change the orientation and size of this one. The
scroll bar will take on the properties of that on the page it is placed.

<table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="34%">
<tr>
<td width="100%">
<div style="height: 100px; overflow: auto;" >
<font SIZE="1">Your stuff goes here</font>
Your content goes here

Your content goes here

Your content goes here
Your content goes here

Your content goes here
Your content goes here
</div></td>
</tr>
</table>
