Web Source Web Design Tips: Creating A Customized Marquee

The MARQUEE tag is used to scroll text across a web page

and is only supported by Microsoft Internet Explorer.

You can change the background color, width, the number of

times your message will scroll and the speed that your

text scrolls, by adding the following attributes within

your MARQUEE tag.

BGCOLOR="#CCCCCC" - background color

LOOP - Determines how many times the text will scroll.

-1 is indefinite and will continuously scroll. You can set

this to whatever you'd like.

SCROLLAMOUNT - Determines the speed your text will scroll.

WIDTH - Determines the width of your marquee.

<MARQUEE bgcolor="#CCCCCC" loop="-1" scrollamount="2"

width="100%">Example Marquee</MARQUEE>
