Text from Text area to be used in scroll <div>
 

Hi!

I'm in the process of creating a web page wherein there is a small <div></div> section wherein some text are scrolling from bottom to top. Now out of this <div> section in the main page, I wish to create a text area for user to fill-up and first few words of their contents should appear on the scrolling text as a link for whole text contents when clicked.

Could anybody help on these lines.

Thanks in advance..

Check out the Dynamic Drive Cross Browser marquee. I have used it before in conjunction with php and mysql. Basically, you create a form which posts to the server which updates the db and dynamically pulls the newest information first.

Hi!

Thanks for your reply! But I'm already using cross browser marquee, and the problem is that I want to use part of write-up of user in the text area should scroll in the scroller section as a link for whole write-up. What could be the js code that picks the part of write-up in the textarea and writes it in the scroller section for link to work, since scroller is in <div></div> section.

Thanks in advance

Yes, where are you going to store the users input? (database, text file...)
