Can someone please help with this code.
The window is supposed to automatically scroll and move but it isn't working.
(It was taken from a discontinued book called javascript in 24hrs)
The javascript
:
Quote:
var pos=100;
function Scroll(){
if (!document.getElementById ) return;
obj=document.getElementById("thetext");
pos -=1;
if(pos < 0-obj.offsetHeight + 130) return;
obj.style.top=pos;
window.setTimeout("Scroll();", 30);
}
//start scrolling when the page loads
window.onload=Scroll;
|
the css:
Quote:
#thewindow{
position:relative;
width:180px;
height:150px;
overflow:hidden;
border:2px solid red;
}
#thetext{
position:absolute;
width:170px;
left:5px;
top:100px;
}
|
the html:
Quote:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
