Vertical Scrolling Text

I'm looking for a way to vertically scroll text within a box (table cell or css created box or other). The text will be a column of text longer than the box and I want it to wrap end to end and continue srolling as long as the page is visible. I think I've seen such things in java or javascript, but, if possible, I'd like to do it in php though I would accept javascript.

RE: Vertical Scrolling Text

i am not sure i understand you. do you want smth like this (but in js)?

http://www.esb.edu.yu/serbian.html (top-left box)

or

http://www.goldsmiths.ac.uk/ (top middle)


if so, look at this:

http://javascript.internet.com/scrolls/layer-scroller.html (you would probably put this one in a <IFRAME>)

http://javascript.internet.com/scrolls/line-scroller.html (this is horisontal, but would probably be easy to convert to vertical)


but you will probably like this best:

http://javascript.internet.com/scrolls/news-scroller.html

and

http://javascript.internet.com/scrolls/multiple-message-scroller.html (it works in mozilla, but doesn't show right. i think it can be fixeed..)


hope you can make one of this work for you. (if you need help, scream! ;)

last one seems to work best in mozilla, and just can't display text (it is there, if you select it, you can see it). interestingly, images scroll ok.

RE: Vertical Scrolling Text

Check what Zombie said and know that you'll need to use JavaScript in any case, if you want the text to scroll by itself. If you want the user to scroll it, simply put it in an <iframe src="something.html"> ...

RE: Vertical Scrolling Text

Thanks, guys. Zombie, all of those vertical scrollers are representative of the concept. I'm not a .js guru so this may be a learning experience for me. I appreciate the link to those resources.
