It should work flawlessly

As yoyoyoyo said, because it's completely HTML enabled, just enter it as if your adding an image to a HTML page.

HTML Code:

<img src="image.gif" border="0">

Because your able to use HTML, the modification can be extended further!

Interesting. Thanks for the release of the hack!

Thanks yoyoyoyo. Thanks mark! I give it a try...

Thanks, great hack, however I can't figure out how to make it show up on VBA. It doesn't show there as default.

cygy2k · #19 10-26-2007, 01:44 PM

No luck on VBA pages here either.

Marky · #20 10-27-2007, 01:52 PM

Are you placing the code in your navbar templates?

Nice one Marky - very useful. Installed.

Can't seem to get HTML working though - is it possible to have a hyperlink in the marquee? Useful none the less.

Also, can the Title be left justified please? And maybe some more room for longer titles before they word wrap?

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
