Silverman Posted June 25, 2008 Posted June 25, 2008 I've got some marquee text scrolling an RSS feed from the BBC, it has scrolling hyperlinks in the RSS feed My question is, is it possible to add some code so when you hover over the hyperlink in the marquee the marquee stops scrolling, and then when you move off of the link it starts scrolling again? Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks, Silv.

Jona Posted June 25, 2008 Posted June 25, 2008 Might be worth noting that if your using xhtml a marquee tag will invalidate you page as it's not a supported tag (The marquee Element - scrolling marquee). Javascript with css might be a better way to do this.

Might be worth noting that if your using xhtml a marquee tag will invalidate you page as it's not a supported tag (The marquee Element - scrolling marquee). Javascript with css might be a better way to do this. I didn't know that. I'll use the above code currently, but look into Javascript - It's on my list to learn. Do you know of any good books/websites for a beginner in Javascript? Thanks for the help. Silv.
Jona Posted June 25, 2008 Posted June 25, 2008 about.com actually provide a javascript example (I don't know if it is standards compatible) here: Cross Browser Ticker/Marquee Example Beginners javascript website you can't go wrong with w3schools - JavaScript Tutorial As for books anything by O'reilly I've generally found to be very good.
