Hi guys...

If you wish to have a : Latest News Trickle going across the top of your forum like this

http://thegoonerforum.phpbb24.com

Then

Go to Administration Panel>>>

Menu phpBB24>>>

Design settings>>>

Content in head>>>

Use this code

Code:

<MARQUEE bgcolor="#DEE3E7" loop="-1" scrollamount="4" width="100%">TYPE IS YOUR NEWS</MARQUEE>

Send>>>>

DONE :wink:

Tips
You can change the background color of your MARQUEE by changing the HTML color code #CCCCCC to the left. The loop determines how many times the words will scroll and is set to -1, which is indefinite. It can be set to whatever you would like. The SCROLLAMOUNT determines the speed your text will scroll.

And if you put this here:

Code:

  <tbody><tr> 
   <td class="catHead" colspan="2" height="28"><span class="cattitle"><center><FONT color=0000CC>Latest News</font color></center></span></td> 
  </tr> 
  <tr> 
   <td class="row1" align="left"><span class="gensmall"> 

<font size="1">
<b>10/04/2007</b> - Binnenkort op dit forum: 
<a href="http://pixelcars.phpbb2.us/viewtopic.php?t=11"> Nieuwe crewleden!</a> Inschrijvingen staan open!
<br>


<b>25/03/2007</b> - 2 uur = 3 uur geworden! Zet daarom je forumklok via je profiel op + 2 uur, als dit nog niet gedaan is.
<br>

</td> 

  </tr> 
</tbody></table><table width="100%" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="2" border="0" align="center">

You can use the HTML code to embed windows media player on your forum

Code:

<embed type="application/x-mplayer2" src="LINK TO MUSIC HERE" name="MediaPlayer" width=320 height=42></embed> 

You just have to supply a link to the music file or a steaming radio station to have it play the music.

<marquee scrollamount="2" scrolldelay="5">WWW.PIXELCARS.TK is voor geopend verklaard, het is één van de grootste databases ooit! Registreer nu!</marquee></div>

Code:

<marquee scrollamount="2" scrolldelay="5"><font color=red><b>WWW.PIXELCARS.TK is voor geopend verklaard, het is één van de grootste databases ooit! Registreer nu!</b></font></marquee></div>
<br />

The red things you change, it's almost the same like above, only here is nothing around the letters..
this was my request but ive found it now..

Code:

<div id="staticbuttons" style="position:absolute;">
<a href="javascript:" onmouseover="myspeed=-thespeed" onmouseout="myspeed=0"><img
src="http://belgiumpixeldesign.phpbb24.com/images/belgiumpixeldesign_phpbb24_com/files/move_up.PNG" border="0"></a><br><br>
<a href="javascript:" onmouseover="myspeed=thespeed" onmouseout="myspeed=0"><img
src="http://belgiumpixeldesign.phpbb24.com/images/belgiumpixeldesign_phpbb24_com/files/move_down.PNG" border="0"></a>
</div>

<script>

var Hoffset=70 //Enter buttons' offset from right edge of window (adjust depending on images width)
var Voffset=80 //Enter buttons' offset from bottom edge of window (adjust depending on images height)
var thespeed=3 //Enter scroll speed in integer (Advised: 1-3)

var ieNOTopera=document.all&&navigator.userAgent.indexOf("Opera")==-1
var myspeed=0

var ieHoffset_extra=document.all? 15 : 0
var cross_obj=document.all? document.all.staticbuttons : document.getElementById? document.getElementById("staticbuttons") : document.staticbuttons

function iecompattest(){
return (document.compatMode && document.compatMode!="BackCompat")? document.documentElement : document.body
}

function positionit(){
var dsocleft=document.all? iecompattest().scrollLeft : pageXOffset
var dsoctop=document.all? iecompattest().scrollTop : pageYOffset
var window_width=ieNOTopera? iecompattest().clientWidth+ieHoffset_extra : window.innerWidth+ieHoffset_extra
var window_height=ieNOTopera? iecompattest().clientHeight : window.innerHeight

if (document.all||document.getElementById){
cross_obj.style.left=parseInt(dsocleft)+parseInt(window_width)-Hoffset+"px"
cross_obj.style.top=dsoctop+parseInt(window_height)-Voffset+"px"
}
else if (document.layers){
cross_obj.left=dsocleft+window_width-Hoffset
cross_obj.top=dsoctop+window_height-Voffset
}
}

function scrollwindow(){
window.scrollBy(0,myspeed)
}

function initializeIT(){
positionit()
if (myspeed!=0){
scrollwindow()
}
}

if (document.all||document.getElementById||document.layers)
setInterval("initializeIT()",20)

</script> 

For 2 scrollbars on your forum, if you have guitar tutartubles or something xD

Gooner you can add the code under "design settings - content in head".

And this script replaces the window's default scrollbars in scrolling the page. It also allows you to custom the images as you wish, and the page will go up or down as you put the mouse on top of the images.
You can see it on my forum
