vB 3.0.7 - Scrolling Portal Box for News, etc.

[YLP1]

I have search this site, vb.com, vbhacks and cannot find a CMPS Portal News type Scroller box where it will scroll top/bottom vs left/right and that will allow new news items to be added while keeping a record of the previous added news items

(I am trying to replace this CGI script: http://www.yourlincolnpark.com/cgi-bin/news/news.cgi )

But need a VB solution to take it's place.

I am newer to PHP and VB and would really appreciate where I can find such a mod/hack.

Thanks in advance.

YLP1, most of the guys using CMPS modules are just using a marquee tag to scroll the Latest Topics module from bottom to top instead of having to do it with PHP or CGI.

Hi KW....I am really new to PHP and Vb..... where would I put this marquee tag and which is the best one to use with VB?

It's completely up to you, it's a simple html tag with whatever parameters you choose to set. In VB you will add it to the template for whatever block you decided to put up. Here is a source for several that you can use. http://www.draac.com/marquee.html
