No, that will show a scrollbar. Instead you need overflow:hidden to disable scrollbars.

It should be fixed now, I changed overflow-y:hidden to overflow:hidden

True, but using auto should work too.

Hmm I could do document.write, I'll think about it, thanks.

I used:

code:

---

inc_syndicate_js =
'<marquee direction="left" height="20px" loop="30" scrollamount="2" scrolldelay="2" behavior="slide">'
+ 'New site now up!'
+ '</marquee>';

// end_var_declaration
document.write(inc_syndicate_js);

---

And then in the webpage I used

code:

---

<div id="marquee"><script type="text/javascript" src="marquee.js"></script> </div>

---

Yes I've seen what you did. Anyway, your page validates now, but officially it isn't 'valid'. But thanks, I'll probably use your method, back ontopic

I remember your site...someone fake emailed me from it. ¬_¬ I saw the new design and I really like it. Keep up the good work.

OH GOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
document.write = evil! it should never be used in xhtml docs since it can presume it needs to write to a new document and clear your page then start writing.


use something like

code:

---

var m =document.getElementById('marquee');

inc_syndicate_js =
'<marquee direction="left" height="20px" loop="30" scrollamount="2" scrolldelay="2" behavior="slide">'
+ 'New site now up!'
+ '</marquee>';

// end_var_declaration
m.innerHTML = inc_syndicate_js;

---

to insert the maquee into the div.

Why, the other way works fine, its not document.write its basically like include()

IT IS DOCUMENT.WRITE LOOK AT YOUR CODE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

innerHTML is alot better way then document.write , document.write is stupid we have a DOM for a reson people , by using document.write your basicly saying "hey i sure as hell dont care for the DOM so lets write random crap to it and hope it parses it right"
another better way (a WAY better way) would be a full DOM approch with

code:

---

var orginalElement =document.getElementById('marquee');
var mElement = document.createElement('marquee');
mElement.setAttribute('direction','left');
mElement.setAttribute('style','height:20px');
mElement.setAttribute('loop','30');
mElement.setAttribute('scrollamount','2');
mElement.setAttribute('behavior','slide');
orignalElement.appendChild(mElement);
