Scrolling Recent Topics Block

[joybreezy]

This is the code that i used;

SMF_ROOT/Themes/default/TPortalBlocks.template.php find;

echo '<div style="width: 100%; overflow: hidden;">';
    foreach($what as $w){

above add;

echo '<marquee  behavior="scroll" direction="up" height="200px" scrolldelay=" 10" scrollamount=" 1" onmouseover="this.stop()" onmouseout="this.start()">';

then find;

$counter++;
    }
    echo '</div>';
}

and replace with;

$counter++;
    }
    echo '</div></marquee>';

}

Thats why I am confused as well because based on this code instruction I went and found the lines listed and placed the new code above or below.    That is when I noticed that under TPcategories is where the first line that I am suppose to put code "above" is listed.

Well its off, but not by much. Look for this for the first part. Suprised you didn't see the similarities.

<div style="width: 100%; ' , $context['TPortal']['recentboxscroll']==1 ? 'overflow: auto; height: 20ex;' : '' , '">';
foreach($what as $w){

155: echo '<marquee  behavior="scroll" direction="up" height="200px" scrolldelay=" 10" scrollamount=" 1" onmouseover="this.stop()" onmouseout="this.start()">';

156: <div style="width: 100%; ' , $context['TPortal']['recentboxscroll']==1 ? 'overflow: auto; height: 20ex;' : '' , '">';

157: foreach($what as $w){

I don't think you can scroll the div. You have to put the marquee around the text if I remember right. The error (since you didn't post what it is), I assume is from a bad formed echo statement. All echos have to start and end with certain code.

What do you need me to post for you?
I can do the same thing on my test site so you can see the error.

Thank you
