Kaz,

In order to do this, you would have to register an application desktop
toolbar. Check out the section of the Platform SDK titled "Using
Application Desktop Toolbars", located at (watch for line wrap):

http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/de...ng/appbars.asp

Hope this helps.

I'm looking for an applet or script to feed from an RSS page (perhaps RSS 0.91) and turn its <title> and <link> entries (perhaps using <description> as well) into a scrolling news ticker where the ticker will pause when you move your mouse over a news item and clicking on that item would jump to the hyperlink in the RSS page. There are a lot of simpler tickers out there and some even take basic XML format pages as their content source...

Hi Does anyone know of a good Javascript typewriter ticker that allows you to insert HTML into the ticker. I have found lots but when HTML is inserted, the ticker pauses at the point it reaches the HTML as well as applying the formatting. I need one whose character timer ignores characters in tags. I need to apply font color and weight styling to different words. Please see www.launchpr.co.uk for how the ticker currently looks in
