If you open the marquee template you will find that there are 2 instances of:

<td class="vbmenu_control"

this controls the color or style of the table

I changed mine to: (2 instances)

<td class="tcat"

and this is the result:

example


you could also change it to:

<td class="thead"
or
<td class="alt1"
or
<td class="alt2"

or probably even an image or clear gif

Can this be coded to show a different message per user group?

is there any way you can have content from a thread or thread titles running on the marquee?

[AshokForums.com]

No upgrades to this hack? I was expecting so much from this.. even a HOTM nomination

[Totti]

i am perfectly satisfied with it ... without further updates

[itorrents]

Let's see how it looks, thanks

[Omega Prime]

Is it possible to have this effect integrated with this hack ?

[Spiffware]

concidering this is a table had a full page probly now most javascripts need the had header settings and this does not i say no but play if you can let us know we will look into it im sure. or be my guest to make a addon to it..

[Joshua5692]

Cute little mod. We are using it for our online staff announcements.

Thanks for the effort you put into it!

[shadowdancer36]

Just wondering how I would make this show on VBportal? I tried creating a block to place the $marquee in, but no luck. Should I make the block a php, or html?
I can't even get VBportal to pull that from the header either.

any/all help is greatly appreciated.

once you have added the $marquee bit to the vba_cmps_include_bottom.php file, this will show on VBA... if you ONLY want this on your VBA homepage and NOT every page that uses your header then simple add $marquee to your 'adv_portal' template after $header .

lovely marquee by the way - i love it !
