Is there anyone ever used a free vertical scroller that is compatable with both Firefox and IE?

If so is it possible to share it here as an answer?

Thanks

What do you mean by scroller? You can try one of the many plugins of JQuery. There are many other javascript frameworks that could probably help you (Prototype, mooTools).

I want to mean a vertical scroll routine where text is scrolled periodically, like in the news format. Check this out http://www.gwu.org.mt (Notices on the right side of the page). thanks

gwu.org.mt appears to use pause scroller from http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex2/crosstick.htm

To do this you nest two DIVs:

<div style='position:realtive;overflow:hidden'>
  <div id='news' style='position:absolute'>your text</div>
</div>

Then you reposition the inner DIV.

I use Prototype/Scriptaculous: but you can do this any way you want.

new Effect.Move('news',{mode:'absolute',x:(some value in pixels, or you can use y: for vertical),duration:(some value in seonds)}
