scrolling marquee

Post by Koolkat »

is it possible for you to create a scrolling marquee on the top of the forums page which would show all of the new posts (up to a certain number(as in the last ten)). I have seen this on the old PC Format forums site before you killed it and replaced it with this, it really helps for navigation on the site (keeps you informed).

<BR>Don´t worry v1c, there will be no scrolling. <IMG SRC="images/forum/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif"> I might put a block in the right/left column with the ten latest posts or something. I will check it out and get back to you guys.

You guys spoke and now you have it. If you look at the left column under "Who´s Online" you will see the last 10 forum posts.
