I tried using tea leaves to determine the problem, but they just kept saying:

wow!!!
here's it mate..
<marquee scrolldelay="95">
<asp:Repeater ID="Repeater1" runat="server">
<ItemTemplate>
<asp:HyperLink ID="feed" runat="server"></asp:HyperLink>
<asp:Label ID="name" runat="server"></asp:Label>
</ItemTemplate>
</asp:Repeater>
</marquee>

the code inside the marquee tag is that of a repeater(asp.net's way of binding a dataset (data from database) to a control for display)...guess that aint gonna make any diff.

even tried this.
<marquee scrolldelay="95">
as they say in english, it aint over till its over!!!
</marquee>

i feel that, the text while moving, moves in kind of a jittery fashion.
aint smooth.

i would like to know whether its normal. if no what should i do to make it so...n also whether there are any better alternatives.

thanks,
gomzi.

better alternative is javascript as marquee only works in IE last I ever checked.

Try some of the attributes listed here and see if any helps to smooth the scrooling:
