Not bad - only problem is items with two lines (second line gets cut
off). The only solutions to that may ruin the effect though.
Increasing the height to allow room for the second line would mean
extra whitespace when there is only one line used for a news item.
Dynamic resizing will impact the layout of a page.

Perhaps I should improve my newsticker
(http://www.texotela.co.uk/code/jquery/newsticker/) to allow ajax and
different fx to be used. Mine just fades in rather than scrolls.


That's cool, I hadn't seen that before.


What I want to know is how to do a typewriter effect (i.e. type from
right to left single letters until the entire text is written).


I don't this this would be that hard to do apart from when complex markup is
used within a string. For example if you have "Hello [World]" with "World"
being a link. What are your thoughts?

Cheers,
