Scrolling text
For announcements or last-minute info, nothing attracts attention like scrolling text.
Your message is placed in a form field produced in your HTML code by the following lines, to be placed in the desired location:
<FORM NAME="affichage">
<INPUT TYPE="text" NAME="texte" SIZE=30 VALUE="">
</FORM>
Where the value 30 is the width in pixels of the field in which your message will be displayed.
Next add an OnLoad attribute to the tag <BODY>:
<BODY OnLoad="banniere()">
Then copy the following JavaScript between the <HEAD> and </HEAD> tags of your document:
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
<!--
var position=0;
var msg="message";
for (count=0; count<10;count=count+1)
{
msg=msg+""+msg;
}
function banniere()
{
document.affichage.texte.value=msg.substring(position,position+100);
position=position+1;
if (position==100)
position=0;
setTimeout("banniere()",100);
}
//-->
</SCRIPT>
Now simply replace message with the message of your choice.
