Text Effect

[Chantayle]

Is there any way at all to house a text marquee inside of a division or a cell?
The one I currently have makes me position the text by pixels, which will obviously change if someone has large print on their screen, or has a different resolution. I have found it is not a very versitile script, and was looking for another. Any ideas?

What script are you using? All you should have to do is change the style from position:absolute to position:relative.

Here's the relative chunk:

if(document.getElementById) // IE5 and NS6
{
document.write('<DIV STYLE="position:relative;top:'+divtop+';left:'+divleft+';width:'+divwidth+';height:'+divheight+';visibility :visible;background-color:'+divcolor+';overflow:hidden;clip:rect(0,'+divwidth+','+divheight+',0)">')
document.write('<DIV STYLE="position:relative;top:0;left:0;width:'+divwidth+';height:'+divheight+'">')
document.write('<DIV ID='+divname1+' STYLE="position:absolute;top:0;left:0;width:'+divwidth+';height:'+divheight+'"></DIV>')
document.write('<DIV ID='+divname2+' STYLE="position:absolute;top:0;left:0;width:'+divwidth+';height:'+divheight+';visibility:hidden"></DIV>')
document.write('</DIV></DIV>')
}


So, if I understand you correctly, just change all of the positions to relative?

Yeah, you could try doing that. It uses document.write() instead of you having to put the object in your page manually, which is a little different from how I normally code...
