How do I put scrolling text on my webpage? Text that would scroll from left to right. Do I have to use Flash or is there some HTML code I can use (something like the BLINK code to make text blink)?

Mahalo!

It can probably be done with either DHTML, Javascript, or Flash (whichever suits you).

have you tried the <Marquee> all text in between this tag will scroll from the right side to the left side! </Marquee> tag?


Good luck!

Best off with javascripts or flash. 99% of all DHTML codes can ONLY be seen in IE, which is a big disadvantage.

the marquee tag is really old. I used it in a page that I created in 1996 or so.


if you reallly reallly want to see it, I can let you in on it. It was my very very very first attempt at HTML and was quite horrible!

IE only script, so if anyone using any other browser views it they only see it standing still and puts your page completely out of proportion.
