Marquee

[Carol Hooton]

Using FP2002. I would like to place a hyperlink in a marquee. Weather.com
has a hyperlink on this page

http://www.weather.com/outlook/travel/local/19147?GO=GO

that stops the marquee and releases a pop up. I want to stop the marquee
and link to another page within the web. Can be done?

Not sure what you are really asking... Do you want to use the FP Marquee component which only works
in IE browser and assign a link, if so then just insert the marquee, then select it, then right
click and select hyperlink properties and assign your hyperlink. You can not assign hyperlinks to
the text within the marquee, only to the marquee.

Otherwise you will need to locate a JavaScript scrolling text script that allows for individual
hyperlinks.

Thanks, Thomas. The site is here:

Currently I have directed members to the News.htm page for links to other
pages described in the marquee. I was hoping to find code which would allow
the user to stop the marquee on one of the subjects and go directly to the
specified page - i.e. if you were interested in scholarships, you would
click on the scholarship text and be linked immediately to the scholarship
page.

Ok, you will have to search for a JavaScript Marquee script that allows individual text hyperlinks.
You can do this by typing the following in the IE address bar:

? JavaScript Marquee script

Look for those that are cross-browser.

This scroller does exactly what you want. Just paste it where you want it in the document and modify the code to fit your needs. It is from www.dynamicdrive.com. I've been using it without problems on a Frontpage site for years.
