What is a marquee?

Well a marquee can complete various different tasks but basically a marquee makes text or images move across the viewers monitor.

This is a Marquee

Well what do you think? Here's the code:

<marquee>This is a Marquee</marquee>

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------The bouncy marquee is similar to the normal marquee but instead of the information (text, images, etc) scrolling off the edge of the marquee it actually bounces back and forth.

This is The Bouncy Marquee

The simple piece of HTML for The Bouncy Marquee is as follows:

<marquee behavior="alternate">This is The Bouncy Marquee</marquee>

<hr width= 2 color= white size= 2>

 You should know this one:

A Marquee With a Background color

Well you can see that, that will have an effect on the viewer but you have to make sure that the color you set for the marquee will 'fit in' with the color scheme of your web site.

Well if you hadn't already guessed at what the coding for the background color is, here it is:

<marquee bgcolor="#FF0000">A Marquee With a Background color</marquee>

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This is a Vertical Marquee

Change the direction of your marquee as you can see:

<marquee direction="left,right,up,down">Scrolling Anyway you Want</marquee>

You can only have one of the directions in there of course, but those are the ones which you are allowed to have.

This for you to fill in this can be done in pixels or percent.

<marquee width="20%">Marquee At 20%</marquee

ScrollMount 4:

This is with the scrollamount of 4

 Here is the code:

<marquee scrollamount="4">This is with the scrollamount of 4</marquee>

The scrollamount is controlled with the numbers 1 - 50. 50 being the fastest and 1 being the slowest.
