I am trying to put a news ticker on my front page of the new content that has been created. I have tried using a php snippet within marquee tags to display the recent content and have set the limit to 10. I wanted it to scroll left like a news ticker. I removed the ul and li tags because I wanted them to scroll individually to the left. But, when I do that there is no break in between listings. I couldn't think of a way to break up the output.. so if that can be done, that's all I need.

If not, I was thinking there was a way to create a news ticker with an rss feed, so I created a feed of what I wanted through views, and ave that set up... but I have no idea how to get that into a news ticker..

I know this can be done, but I can't find the answer.

Thanks,
Kris

I thought that would only work with html. I don't think I can put that in the php snippet. And if I could, where would it go? In the output line?

I'd also be interested in a scrolling ticker display for views content. (It would make a cool Views option, actually.)

I am curious too...... the slideshow part in the views is only good for one node at a time.... but this marquee will be like a scroll ..........

thanks again.
