Is it at all possible to have a revolving text, sort of like a "marquee" if you like...i'll explain what i mean.

Say i've got five messages that i need to display on my forum...and want to rotate the text from one message to the next, as if a news flash switching between headlines, without using a scrolling marquee...how would i go about this?
 
if you go to DHTMLCentral.com the wonderfull thomas bratti wrote a news ticker (thats what they are called) that does all that and has instructions to configure it tooo.

good luck

thank you very much American Zombie, Tuffgong4 and Geffy...but unfortunately the forum i run, Javascript doesn't work on...again thank you very much for your help though.

Moonz-thanks very much for the link, currently checking it out, it is very kind of you to take the time to post this link, :)

just to clarify, the thing i am looking for is kind of a flashing text, from one sentence to the next, not a scrolling one.
 
If it is the same text all the time you could just make an animated gif file.

Free online gif maker here.
 
Unfortunately mate it changes regularly, forum announcements and things like that.

Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
Any of the SP crew still out there?

Impressed you have kept this alive this long EP! So many sites have come and gone. :(

Just did some crude math and I apparently joined almost 18yrs ago, how is that possible???
