Scrolling Text Window using asp - 2/10/2008 5:16:43   
Gurus,

I want to set up a text display frame window that is based upon an access "memo" field. The display to be like a news "Ticker".

Can probably do it via timed loop containg
response.write Mid(memo,1,x)
x = x+1
if x = len(memo) then
x=1
end if


Anyone know of a simpler way of acheiving this? (Ideally in JS as it's not really a server side function.)

TIA
Bernie
Spooky

You would still use client side JS, however - just extract the memo field from the database first using asp and place the variable inside the javascript you wish to use
