I am getting near the end of finishing my second web site ever and I cannot figure out how to change the font face color in the javascript text box scroller that I picked up from www.dynamicdrive.com. Can some one take a look at this and tell me if it is possible to change- at www.yellowpages-nds.com/NewWeb/newhome.htm the script is only on the "newhome.htm" page. I realize that there are some loose ends to tie up on this site but I would appreciate any constructive critisism or tips when your looking around.

Thanks

I assume that you have tried to use the COLOR Attribute for the FONT tags that load into the array?

Do you want to change the colors on each message or all to one color?

Why not use CSS to change the link colour of the scroll - something like this:

<style type="text/css">
A {
color: #FFFFFF;
text-decoration: none;
}

A:visited {
color: #FFFFFF;
text-decoration: none;
}

A:active {
color: #FFFFFF;
text-decoration: none;
}

A:hover {
color: #CC3300;
text-decoration: underline;
}
</style>

- this would go in your head section

You say what about what, I am very new to this whole HTML and Java thing. I want to change all the messages to a font that is alot smaller and white or the yellow color used in the page.

This just came to mind is there any way to modify the script so that when the mouse cursor is placed inside the text box the scrolling stops?

I may need to just go and find a whole different script that does more of what I want and (some instructions for the idiots).

Thanks

I think that is going to work your awesome. Now what do I need to do to change font type and size? And do you have any suggestions on how to get the scroller to stop when cursor is in the text box?

Add this to the above code for Verdana for example:
TD {
font-family: Verdana;
font-size: 13px;
}
Cheers
