Dynamic News Scroller

Hi

I would like to know if there is any News Scroller which runs on the Top and where I can display the news moving from right to left or left to right.

Newsflashadvance scroller It is not that powerful

It does not scroll through Specified Sections or categories.

but i tried Display Latest news Module 1.2 which worked great with all the functions built in it.
But there was one thing which I could not do. While displaying the latest news from specified Section, it only displayed one. When i set the Count from 1 to 5 . It displayed it stacked upi horizontally. i wanted it to display in a marquee style one after the other.

Not sure what you are trying to do, could you explain a little further.
I might be able to help you to get it doing what you want.
Do you have a 'live' demo? If you don't want to post the site publicly, you can Private Message (PM) me.
Seeing it might help me figure out what you are trying to do and what the problem is.
Could you also post/PM the paramters you are using.

There is a bug in the access_* Criteria Parameters which I have fixed and will be available in the next release.

@stingry

I have pm'ed you .

A...yeah sorry about that, completely forgot about your PM and someone else's. Moderating threads and coding I just lose track off things sometimes

Here is the parameter settings i am using :

Quote:

scroll=y
scroll_direction=left
set_count=1
scroll_height=30
scroll_speed=3
set_section_id=7
show_arrow=n

You can see it in action here:

http://63.175.194.25/index.php?ln=eng

Its in the top namely " Latest Fatwas"

I want to display it in the same manner. I have got it to work the same way but it only display's one item while scrolling from left to right. When I increase the count to 3 to 4 or any other number. It shows up stacked up horizontally as one over the other.

for eg.
>First News is this and its scrolling
>Second News is this and its scrolling

It scrolls in the exact manner as above fromleft to right. But I want to make my news appear one after another in a single line and not in multiple lines.

Can anyone else help ?

I noticed you were able to get the Latest News module to scroll like a marguee. Can you give me some tips on how you did it? I would love to copy this and am experiencing the same issues you mentioned (i.e., horizontal scrolling, multiple items are stacking).

Thanks much
