Scrolling Status Bar Text Block

[Techdomain]

If you want to add scrolling text to the bottom of visitors status bars, just add the following code to a script block, hide the frame and title, and publish it.
Edit line 4 to say what you want it to say.
I have tested this in IE6

Example: look at the bottom left of your browser window at http://www.techdomain.com.au

Code Select Expand


<Script LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
<!-- Hide this from older browsers
var Count = 0; var
Text = "This is the line that you edit.";
var Speed = 90;
var timerID = null;
var TimerRunning = false;
var i = 0;
while (i ++ < 140) Text = " " + Text;
function Scroll()
{ window.status = Text.substring(Count++, Text.length);
if (Count == Text.length) Count = 0;
timerID = setTimeout("Scroll()", Speed);
TimerRunning = true; }
function Start()
{ Stop(); Scroll(); }
function Stop()
{ if(TimerRunning) clearTimeout(timerID); TimerRunning = false; }
Start();
// end hide -->
</Script>

It works in FF for me too - havent tried opera yet though but it should I think
