    Default Scrolling text marquee

    Is there a way to have a line of text scroll across the screen without having to use another program like Flash?

    Okay. I created the text where I want it, went to Web Properties--Placeholder--HTML Code body and added the code below, except I keep changing direction="right" to "left" but it won't save that change. How can I get it to scroll from left to right instead of right to left? Also, I want to change the font size and color. What is the code for that and where would I add it in the following? Thank you so much for all of your help.

    <marquee behavior="scroll" direction="right"
    onmouseover="this.stop();"
    onmouseout="this.start();">

    </marquee>

    For the first, you must press OK to exit the code editor and then Apply/OK to save the change; you just need to change the right to left.

    Here's the trick:

    Create some dummy text in any height, width, style and colour as a text block.
    Name the text block htmlblocktext.
    Add the above marquee text into the dummy text's Placeholder Body.

    The marquee adopt the styling you used.
