Java Applet: MoveText.class

The Applet will allow you to easily create scrolling text banners in your web page. No experience is needed. Please have a look at this sample first.

Though IE has a 'marquee' tag to enable this function and we can do the same with DHTML in IE and Netscape, it's not a easy job to create a marquee banner between browsers unless you are a DHTML guru. With the java applet I designed, you will feel it's extremely easy. On the other hand, you can also change the display message within the page with JavaScript. Please type in a message and press 'update' in this form:
