Change pace and direction of <marquee>

I am a newbie in HTML. I am using <marquee> tag.

Is there a way to change the direction of text movement from right to left to otherway round or top-up?

Also, can I change the pace at which these marquee run?

Solution

  • You can create a scrolling marquee (i.e. scrolling text or scrolling images) by using the tag. It can be completely customized. In your you are interested in modifying the direction and pace of scrolling text, which is possible by adding some attributes.

    For example, a sample html code:

    <marquee behavior="scroll" direction="left" scrollamount="1">Pace-slow</marquee>

    Here attribute direction can take values like LEFT,UP,RIGHT etc depending on direction of scroll and scroll amount can control the speed, more the faster.
