I am searching for a News Tickers module, but till now I didn't find any good one. what I am looking for is a News Tickers module to display selected news that I selected from different categories. how we can select it? we can do it by adding option to the Publishing Option (check box) called "Ticker News", when I select this box the news will go to News Tickers automatically. But how we can do it practical?

See: http://drupal.org/node/611924

There is mentioned another method, but is more complex to get working (needs some programming).

Here one with webticker_lib.js => http://www.mioplanet.com/rsc/newsticker_javascript.htm

Horizontal newsticker: http://www.hscripts.com/scripts/php/horizontalTextMover.php
Vertical newsticker: http://www.hscripts.com/scripts/php/newsTicker.php

WARNING: I don't know these sites and some of them give an immediate Kaspersky alert; so please dont download and install anything unless you have researched who you're dealing with!

Here a search through jQuery site: http://plugins.jquery.com/search/node/news+ticker+type%3Aproject_project

So there are a lot of possibilities + this drupal module might need some upgrade to get the plugin working...

Update: a ticker might technically mean something different than a scroller; so maybe better search on "news scroller" or "news scroll".

You can use Views with Views SlideShow modules to have a nice block/page of slide show of any node type of your choice.

Yes, thanks; I just found the OLD documentation and have added it above. But how about the new documentation, or do my help pages with the views 2/3 guide me through it?
