A Marquee allows you to scroll words across your
screen. The code for a simple marquee is:
<<>marquee<>>Your text here<<>/marquee<>>
The are several different attributes you can add to
your 'marquee' to change the speed, the color, the
background, even the size of your text.
To make your marquee scroll faster use the following
code. You can play with the numbers to adjust the speed to
suit your needs.
<<>marquee scrollamount="20"<>>Your Text
<<>/marquee<>>
To make your marquee slower use this code. Again, you
can change the numbers to get the desired
effect.
<<>marquee scrolldelay="20"<>> Your Text<<>/marquee<>>
If you put the two codes together, you will get a
blinking text. Again play with the numbers to get different
effects
<<>marquee scrollamount=200 scrolldelay=300<>>
Your Text <<>/marquee<>>
.
You can change the color and size of your font using
the font color and size tags, just make sure you
change these attributes before the opening <<>marquee<>> tag!
It would look like this:
<<>font
color="red"<>><<>marquee<>>RED<<>/marquee><<>/font<>>
or
<<>font
size="7"<>><<>marquee<>>Big<<>/marquee<>><<>/font<>><
P>
or
<<>Font color="limegreen"
size="5"<>><<>marquee<>>WoW!!!<<>/marquee<>><<>/font<>>
You can change the background color of the marquee by
adding the attribute 'bgcolor=colorname' just before the
closing bracket in the opening <<>marquee<>> tag.
<<>marquee bgcolor="black"<>>How about
this!<<>/marquee<>>
You can also change the behavior of the marquee by
specifying
'direction=' and use 'right' or 'left' and 'behavior=' 'slide'
or 'alternate'.
Examples:
<<>marquee direction="right"<>>Goes
Right<<>/marquee<>>
<<>marquee direction="right" behavior="slide"<>>Watch
this<<>/marquee<>>
Another attribute you can use is 'behavior="alternate':
<<>marquee behavior="alternate"<>>Looks like
this<<>/marquee<>>
One thing to remember, if you use more that one
marquee on a page or e-mail, it will slow down the speed of
the other marquees. Play with the numbers and combine different attributes. You'll be amazed at all you can do!
