vB-marquee - scrolling "recent threads" for non-vb page

Ok, this is my first, and only "hack" (although it's really more of an add-on). It's VERY simple and may not even be worth releasing here, but I thought some people might be able to make use of it.

It is losley based on the Taskbar Ticker by wluke, so props to him.

It provides a scrolling marquee of your most recent threads on a non-vb page. You can easily include this file on your home page, or whereever you need the most recent threads listed.

As it uses the "marquee" tag, it only works in IE. Netscape users will see the list of threads, but it will not scroll.

To install: simply download the attached zip, and place the one file in your vB directory. Configure the variables to your liking, and include the file wherever you wish.

Online demo: http://forums.newbeetle.org/marquee.php

I'd love to hear comments, suggestions, and/or see your modifications to this script. Thanks!

top hack mate

you can see what it looks like at http://www.manutdchat.com/content_for_your_site.php

im using an iframe though
i know you use the tag target="_blank" or target="new" in html but im not sure how to implement this in marquee.php so that when someone clicks on the link, a new window appears with the forum

Great! I'm so glad that someone made use of it. Using it in an IFRAM and letting people pull from your fedd is a GREAT idea. I might do that myself...


Try this in marquee.php for the target attribute...

On the lines with the links, look for the "href." Just BEFORE "href", type this:

Code:
target=\"_blank\"
Make sure you leave a space between the end of your taget attribute and the begining of the href.

Let me know if you need more detailed help...

Jeff

I went ahead and used fonzerelli's idea for my site, as well. This is a great idea!

Awesome job! I'm using it with the iframe method. I have a page up so anyone can easily include the code into their own site. Check it out:

:up: EXCELLENT! It's on my site www.billsinsider.com getting 4 million hits per month, so you're famous now!

Question: Can something similar be done for a news feature. For example, we could post some news on the message boards, and have it show up on a non-vb page in a similar style, but without the scroll? is there already a hack like that?
