In order to start the scrolling one must mouse over then back off.

Nice module!

I remember reading about that bug before, but I don't have the time to find out what happened. Is this with IE7 ? It might be an old bug that was fixed in the 5.1 release...

This is in IE6 and FF.

If you come across it please send it my way!

Ticker is over on the right (grey box). Mouse over the box and it begins.

I had a look at your site and the call might need to be manually modified to be like this : 

<body onload="startTicker();">

This shouldn't be necessary, but it seems that the auto-start stuff (if (isJsEnabled() && ... ) doesn't work for you. That would be a bug, but your site includes the misc/drupal.js file, so I can't see what's wrong...

I can confirm I too experience this problem.

Firefox 2/Mac OS X
IE7/IE6/WIN XP

Got it working by manually adding body onload.

where exactly do you put this line to manually start the ticker ?

In your theme's page.tpl.php. There is (hopefully!) already a tag .. you need to add the onload="startTicker();" part.

Yes, it sure worked! Thanks a lot!

Ok, one very weird problem occurs as a result of adding this line though. Now the ticker starts working automatically without mousing over, but all the collapsed menus in site stop working.....like say, you have search and advanced search (which is collapsed). The Advanced search link is not clickable anymore. Same happens with a number of other collapsed links.

Oh yeah, not only do collapsed menus stop working, even nice menus don't work anymore. I don't know if its only me or others are having the same problem.....
