Creating an iframe scroller (similar to the one used by PSC).

Ok, so this is based mainly on a script by Dynamic Drive, but I think many people would be interested in it, since it creates a scroller very similar to the one you see on the left side of Planet-Source-Code. It's an iframe scroller where the contents is contained inside a external document.

The script comes in two parts:

Index.htm:

<!--This script by Dynamic Drive (http://www.dynamicdrive.com)-->
<!--Modified by Mike Thompson-->
<iframe id="datamain" src="external.htm" width=150 height=150 marginwidth=0 marginheight=0 hspace=0 vspace=0 frameborder=1 scrolling=no></iframe>

External.htm

<html>
<body>

<div id="datacontainer" style="position:absolute;left:0;top:10;width:100%" onMouseover="scrollspeed=0" onMouseout="scrollspeed=cache">

<!-- ADD YOUR SCROLLER COMMENT INSIDE HERE--------------------->

YOUR CONTENT HERE

<!-- END SCROLLER CONTENT---------------------------------------->

<div>

<script language="JavaScript1.2">

//<iframe> script by Dynamicdrive.com //

//Specify speed of scroll. Larger=faster // (ie: 5)
var scrollspeed=cache=2

function initialize(){
marqueeheight=document.all? parent.document.all.datamain.height : parent.document.getElementById("datamain").getAttribute("height")
dataobj=document.all? document.all.datacontainer : document.getElementById("datacontainer")
dataobj.style.top=5
thelength=dataobj.offsetHeight
setTimeout("scrolltest()",200)
}


function scrolltest(){
dataobj.style.top=parseInt(dataobj.style.top)-scrollspeed
if (parseInt(dataobj.style.top)<thelength*(-1))
dataobj.style.top=5
setTimeout("scrolltest()",50)
}


window.onload=initialize

</script>

</body>
</html>

The entire script is also attached as a zip file, so you can begin using it right away on your site.

Note: Due to the size or complexity of this submission, the author has submitted it as a .zip file to shorten your download time. Afterdownloading it, you will need a program like Winzip to decompress it.

Virus note:All files are scanned once-a-day by Planet Source Code for viruses,but new viruses come out every day, so no prevention program can catch 100% of them.

FOR YOUR OWN SAFETY, PLEASE:
1)Re-scan downloaded files using your personal virus checker before using it.
2)NEVER, EVER run compiled files (.exe's, .ocx's, .dll's etc.)--only run source code.

If you don't have a virus scanner, you can get one at many places on the net including:McAfee.com

I haven't tried your code, but from a quick glance at it, i noticed a mistake. Just before the start of the javascript code, it should be </DIV> , and not
:)

This code works just great, but a suggestion for the users that want to use this. It skips. So you need to put several
before the info.

An addendum to the previous comment, you need to put BREAKS in before the info. It didn't put the tag in. :(
