im running a marquee on one page and it works great in explorer but netscape wont scroll, it just shows all the text all across the page and makes the page very wide in the process. here are the tage...any changes i should make?


<MARQUEE ALIGN="BOTTOM" BGCOLOR="black" WIDTH="250" SCROLLAMOUNT="4">my text is here.</MARQUEE>

note: i tried both with quotes around the commands and without. same result.

Unfortunately, only Explorer supports the <marquee> tag.

Actually Mozilla does too, very likely since marquee is in the CSS 3 drafts.

I'm not sure how well supported the CSS 3 marquee stuff is yet though.
This thread give a lot of links to up to date listings of what Mozilla support.
