[Code] Simple Announcements

Forum Url: http://SMFDesigns.smfforfree3.com

Code Demo!

This adds a scrolling text box to the top of your forum for quick announcements you may want your members to see right away.

Headers:

Code:

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">

var myMainMessage=" YOUR SIMPLE ANNOUNCMENT TEXT HERE! ";
var speed=150;
var scrollingRegion=50;

var startPosition=0;
function mainTextScroller() {
var mainMessage=myMainMessage;
var tempLoc=(scrollingRegion*3/mainMessage.length)+1;
if (tempLoc<1) {tempLoc=1}
var counter;
for(counter=0;counter<=tempLoc;counter++)
mainMessage+=mainMessage;
document.mainForm.mainTextScroller.value=mainMessage.substring(startPosition,startPosition+scrollingRegion);
startPosition++;
if(startPosition>scrollingRegion) startPosition=0;
setTimeout("mainTextScroller()",speed); }
</script>

</HEAD>

<BODY onLoad="mainTextScroller()">

<form name="mainForm">
<center>
<input type="text" name="mainTextScroller" size="40" value>
</center>
</form>

You can change the speed of the scroll of the text by modifying this:

Code:

var speed=150;

Change my pre-set text here:

Code:

var myMainMessage=" YOUR SIMPLE ANNOUNCMENT TEXT HERE! ";

Enjoy.
