HTML: Scrolling Marquee Element
Published: 3rd Jun 2006
Revised: 3rd Jun 2006
<marquee></marquee>
The marquee tag is not part of the XHTML specification, but most modern browsers support it. It is a very quick and easy way of getting scrolling text on a web page but do not rely on it for critical applications.
The following optional attributes can be used with the <marquee> tage:
- align
- behavior
- bgcolor
- dir
- height
- hspace
- loop
- scrollamount
- scrolldelay
- transparency
- vspace
- width
Some example uses of the marquee tag have been provided below:
<marquee>Scrolling Text</marquee>
<marquee scrolldelay="200" width="250">This text scrolls every 200 milliseconds</marquee>
