Sorry folks, I'll try to explain this as best I can. I would like to add, in the top left section of www.bbqtalk.ca/forums , an area where I can have some text that would rotate news or info that I could add on a daily basis. I have approx. 140 x 240 area to do this in.
In short, it would be a stationary 140x240 box with a static title, but the contents would be text and rotate.
Hope that was clear, cause it sure was painful to write
Any help on design is really appreciated. I'm very new to this, so please explain it in detail.
Thanks in advance.
Hi!
http://www.bbqtalk.ca/forums/
You have a cell on each side of the logo image. They just contain empty paragraphs now. You could use one of those.
You could search for ramdon scripts in PHP.

It doesn't matter that those are quotes. You have to exchange whatever sample text they use anyway.
I found this script but when I try to add another line, it shows up outside the box. How can I add more lines inside the box?
MARQUEE is an old IE extension to HTML. You shouldn't use that. But if you must, you have to use one MARQUE for each line.
If it is a scroller you want there are JavaScript ones. Of course, they won't scroll if JS isn't available but they are still better than MAQUEE.
But you said you wanted automatically updated news? There's nothing like that with a MARQUEE. It's just HTML, or at least Microsoft's take on it.
JavaScript scrollers:
