But im not sure.. Heres what im looking for yet have extreme trouble finding (but it does exist).. I use dreamweaver and prefer the "design" segment rather than the code so maybe youl lget more of an idea.. i want to add a scrollable text area (that i can drag and resize to fit anywhere on my webpage) and in the design area of dreamweaver.. just add the text to that area.. i assume it will have to be overlay also because my website is mainly image based.. Its to add news ect so that it looks tiday while the site remains static and so that i can avoid frames.. Any help would be greatly appreciated as this has bene bothering me now for a couple of months thank You..

Its just a scrollable text area that i can use to add news and othe content ect.. so the page remaisn static..

I don't know if I exactly understood what you mean But I think it’s about somewhere on your site to put news whit a scrolling text So I think you need the “ <marquee></marquee> “ It’s a scrolling text and you can add some little images to it using HTML code … CODE <marquee bgcolor="#FFFF00" height="0" scrolldelay="100" loop="2" direction="right">this text will scroll on the marquee area 2 times from left to right</marquee>

You can create one by giving the div limited dimensions (width and height) and then setting the CSS overflow property to a value of either auto (scrollbars appear when needed) or scroll (scrollbars appear whether needed or not). @ahmad_511: The marquee element is proprietary and shouldn’t be used. Besides that, scrolling marquees are obnoxious.
