What you are looking for is not javascript, it's a marquee tag. I don't believe it's available for netscape, but they may have added it since I last looked. The basic code for one is:

The scroll will be the width of the page and be the height of the text.


Now, if you want it wider/smaller, just use the "width" attribute like so:

And if you want it taller/shorter, use the "height" attribute:

You have a lot of control over these guys. You can change how they look, act, and what direction they scroll in.

For direction:

Your text
Your text
Your text
Your text


And behavior:

Your text
Your text
Your text


You can alter the speed too:
