Scrolling news
|
Can't Post

re the recent discussion on news tickers - I have implemented scrolling news using a free javascript scroller and simply inserting an Art-Man syndicate webfeed. You can see this in action on http://www.miningjournal.com/. Also a couple of static webfeeds on the same page.
You're very welcome to view source and copy-and-paste the script (lines 9 to 157)
best of luck !

From what I see you are not using a JavaScript ticker. But a standard "marquee" tag.
Unfortunately this tag only works with MSIE and NS 6.X

Motozine - You're very perceptive ! Yes, a few days ago I switched to the marquee tag because it works better than the javascript version for IE and NS 6+. (and for earlier NS versions this is automatically replaced by a simple manual scrollbar in a <div>). Problem that I found was that on some browsers the javascript seemed to be giving trouble - and since it's a production website developed for a client I didn't want to take any risks.
Only difficulty I have now (for this at least) is reliable browser detection: finally selected Xagent, although even this is not perfect.
If you'd like the javascript version for the scroll, it came from http://www.iinet.net.au/~biab/ - I might well go back to it again when I have a bit more time to work out what the problem is.

I have a PHP detection script that I wrote a few years ago to detect browser versions. Works great and easy to add new browser versions to it.
When I get back to work on Monday I'll see if I can dig it up from my archives.
P.S. You Marquee idea is a good one though!
