EXAMPLE

HOW TO USE
1) Insert this script in the section of the page.


<script src="contentscroller.js" language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript"></script>

2) Create a host element on your page to locate the placement of the scroller:


<div id="elementtoscrollcontentof"></div>

3) Create an Javascript object instance of the scroller assigning the DOM element to host the scroller. And provide content to scroll:


<script>

    window.myscroller = new ContentScroller(

      { myname: 'window.myscroller',

        containerid:'elementtoscrollcontentof'

      }

     );


    var articles = new Array();

    articles.push({displayhtml:"Welcome to Frank's world 1."});

    articles.push({displayhtml:"Welcome to Frank's world 2.", id:null});

    articles.push({displayhtml:"Welcome to Frank's world 3.", id:"testid"});

    articles.push({displayhtml:"Welcome to Frank's world 4."});

    window.myscroller.Items = articles;

  </script>

4) Using your preferred method, create an onLoad event handler to start the scroller, examples:


<body onLoad="window.myscroller.start()"

or, using a portable attach event inside a <script> tag on the page ...


<script>


    if (window.addEventListener) window.addEventListener ("load",function(event) {window.myscroller.start();},false);

    else if (window.attachEvent) window.attachEvent ("onload",function(event) {window.myscroller.start();});

  </script>

To configure otherwise, see these settings on the object instance (this. is the object):

   // Width of entire scroller.
   this.scrollerwidth = 350;

   // Height of Scroller.
   this.scrollerheight = 25;

   // Pause the scroller on mouseOver. (use 0 for no.)
   this.pause = true;

   // Orientation of scroller, one of: horizontal or vertical
   this.orientation = "horizontal";

   // increase this to reduce loop resets to merit a smoother scroller.
   this.smoothfactor = 4;

   // The number of Pixels to move by. Lower number merits a smoother, slower scroll. (1..100)
   this.moveby = 1;

   // time in MS to re-trigger movement, eg: scroller speed. (smaller value :== faster scroll)
   this.speed = 25;
