Can anyone tell me how to do automated scrolling text within a asp page ? It's like a box embedded within a page where some text will be scrolling slowly in the box.
Thanks

Go to the Dynamic Drive website:

You should be able to find one script that suits your needs.

or if you only code for IE users use marquee (although its very rude to code only for a specific browser)

oh sorry forgot about that its a html tag

<marquee behavior="scroll" align="bottom" direction="up" bgcolor="#000000" loop="-1">yeah baby yeah!<marquee loop=""></marquee></marquee>

behavior can be "scroll", "slide", "alternative" i wront explain just look at what they do. then you have direction which is self explainatory. then loop (-1 is infinity i think) you can also add width/height attributes to it as well.
IE only tho so if you only want IE visitors (80% of people i think) then thats for you!
