I am trying to setup a marquee like display for a link. (for a custom
ticker tape type mod)
I can scroll the link horizontally by updating the x property of a
link inside a div using a script.
when I set the x property to for example the size of the div element
the link overflows from the div and only a part of it is displayed, as
expected.
For example i have a div of size 200, and a link with innerText.length
= 15, when the x property is >185 the text starts overflowing towards
the right.
My problem is how can I accomplish this for the left side? so that the
link scrolls in from the left side.
the x property cannot be -ve and the main view does not support css
styles (I have it working on normal web pages using css position
tags).
Here is the code I am using right now. This function is called every
200ms. it scrolls the link to the right untill it eventually
disappears then restarts (the mod function).
function shiftText(){
var m = marquee_container.children("link1");
var w = marquee_container.width;
var init = m.offsetX;
//debug.trace(init);
if (init>w)
{ init=(init+1)%(w); m.x = init; }
else
{ init=init+1;m.x = init; }
}
