scrolling text marquee html code

Marquee html code. Use this marquee code to display scrolling text on your website, MySpace or blog.

Handy Tip : A HTML marquee is a scrolling piece of text displayed either horizontally across or vertically down your web site page depending on the settings. This page shows you how to make a scrolling marquee using div tags that are often seen in CSS (Cascading Style Sheets).

Making scrolling text with the use of the marquee tag

This is cool!

Make your text scroll across your page using simple html, which loads fast. Here I use the <marquee> tag. The code is below.

Scrolling upward text or vertical text.

You can use the html marquee tag to make your text scroll upward. This tag does not work in Netscape browsers.

Here I have used simple html to make the text scroll upward. Because this is just straight html, it loads very fast and is easily placed into any page on any server.

Below is an example of how it can be used.

THIS IS A COOL WAY
TO MAKE YOUR TEXT
SCROLL UPWARDS

IT IS EASY AND FAST LOADING

And here is the code that I used. Just copy and paste the code into your html document where you want the scrolling text to show.

(Homesteaders, use the "insert html" element and drag the html snippett where you want the scrolling text to appear on your page.)

You can change the font color and the background color to suit. You can make it wider if required and you can set the speed of the scroll by changing the "scrollamount" variable. The higher the number, the faster the speed of scroll.

Handy hint.
To select all the code in the text box, click inside the box and press your keyboards ctrl + a. To copy the text ctrl+c and to paste into your html document ctrl+v
