Need a Scrolling Marquee

Starting a web page for my local Little League, I want a led-like
scrolling marquee like the one found here: http://www.lnll.org
I'm willing to pay for it.

Thanks,
Coach Jeff

That part of the page is written in Java, not JavaScript. There is no way
to replicate that in JavaScript.

A Google search produces many results for tickers (watch for wrap):

http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&i...=Google+Search

From a quick look at some of the returns, there are some very nice
implementations . They do lack the "LED look" though. Results for
LED-styled tickers aren't quite so impressive.

Yes there is, it's just not worth the effort. The LED background is
simple enough, just an image. Then it becomes just a matter of moving
text around. Could probably be done with a marquee tag and scripting it
to change its text/direction.

Hello, I am redesigning my website and would like to have the text scroll within the webpage without the page itself scrolling.... if you understand what I mean... ;-) I want a very sleek look and would like to use little arrows that people could press to see more of the text rather than have a very long page.... How should I go about that? I use DW3. Can it be done???? Thanks for any info!! ;-)

I've written a custom controll that scrolls text (marquee style) one character at a time. This works - but is too jerky looking. I'd like to make a smoother-scrolling marquee. I think the way to do this is to turn the text into a bitmap, and scroll that. Are there any examples of doing this or anything similar? Thanks

Hi I am wondering if someone can help me here with the "perfect" marquee vertical scrolling script I've found. This marquee is great for me as it will call an external html page. This allow me to design a html page and update just that page without having to muck around on coding with the main page. There is one thing I like to have this marquee script able to do for me.
