Hi

I have seen a scrolling text line on the status bar on this website
http://www.wakefieldhospice.org/
The words appear at the bottom of the screen when the page is loaded.

How is this done - I like the effect but it may be above my skill level

Dose anyone have a link to a web page that would discribe this or really
simple instrctions.

Thank you
 
Not a good example - no scrolling status bar on the Home page, and other
all other pages fail to open with Active-X and VB Script errors.

The status bar text is controlled by JavaScript, but be warned that IE7
and FireFox can be set to ignore any JavaScript that affects the status
bar.

Googling for "status bar scrolling text" (without the quotes) gives lots
of javascript sources.
 
I will leave it then. It's good to have advice when "not" to try things.

Thank you
