HTML - [marquee] Writing Text [read]

alright when using marquee's is there actually a way to tell it where to be but not have to put it at the certain place in the html. like can u use coordinates instead of tables and lists and if so how? because i want to have a marquee of a welcome message/news on my webpage on the navigation bar at the top 1) because it looks better and 2) because theres a lot of blank space on it. the reason i need to find a way to do it by coordinates if possible is because i had to use a horizontal list for my nav bar and when i tried putting the marquee in there it didn't work so i'm guessing i got to put it there some other way out of the lists code.

thx in advance,

Hello all,

I have a simple page with a simple marquee on it (used in a local system, within a browser control and not an online website).

The problem I encounter is as follows:
1. I want the marquee to fit itself to the page, so I set
<marquee HEIGHT="100%"....>

However - this damages the scroll behavior -
instead of text scrolling from off-screen bottom, upwards and off-screen top (I set the direction to UP), it starts with as many lines of the marquee as it can show already shown.

Explanation:
If my marquee has 10 lines, and my browser is maximized, which could show all 10 lines without needing to scroll - then all 10 lines are shown, and no scrolling.

BUT I WANT IT TO SCROLL ANYWAY !!!
IT'S THE EFFECT I AM AFTER...

Any ideas how I can bypass this?

Thanks,
Maor.

Problem Fixed

I have a simple marquee with percentage height.
The problem is that the marquee 'jumps' casually.
I can't specificate a fixed height because the marquee must be adaptive to the height of the page.

This is the example:
EXAMPLE

Thanks in advance!

im tired of that simple thing.

is there anyway i can make the marqee stop in the middle for a few seconds then continuing on?

Anyone here use a light weight marquee replacement that allows images to scroll horizontally? I need one

Hello all,

I have the following marquee code:

Code:

<p><marquee><img src="images/gallery/gallery (1).jpg"/><img src="images/gallery/gallery (2).jpg"/><img src="images/gallery/gallery (3).jpg"/><img src="images/gallery/gallery (4).jpg"/><img src="images/gallery/gallery (5).jpg"/><img src="images/gallery/gallery (6).jpg"/><img src="images/gallery/gallery (7).jpg"/><img src="images/gallery/gallery (8).jpg"/><img src="images/gallery/gallery (9).jpg"/><img src="images/gallery/gallery (10).jpg"/></marquee></p>

But this marquee only reach till my window's left side and it start to restart without completing the scroll....

I'm not sure if you can use CSS for this, but here goes...

I want a marquee displaying the latest news on every one of my pages, the problem is, my site has hundereds of pages, which means every time the news is updated, I would have to update the marquee on every page, which would get very tiresome.

Is there anyway you can set a marquee in a seperate file or something, and call it from that file to every page?

Thanks in advance,
