Re: [WSG] To or not to here is the question!!!

the liScroll solution looks just fine. CPU is 99% on idle for me on all browsers. WP loop has nothing to do with it. This Javascript solution is what I would prefer to use. Your CPU might peak because of some other reason.

I hope I helped.

Heh!! Is this something like 'who dares win'? cause i'm a bit afraid to do this to be honest, but at the same time we should respect CPU's resources as well... any ideas please ?

        Greetings to everyone,

        I prepare a web project (wordpress), where my boss desires a
        horizontal news ticker scrolling from left to right at the top
        of my header....!!! It is something i would not propose to
        anyone to do, but unfortunately i have to do it..

        Initially i used the li scroller from
        
http://www.gcmingati.net/wordpress/wp-content/lab/jquery/newsticker/jq-liscroll/scrollanimate.html
        , which is extremely slow and uses huge CPU resources,
        especially when using it with IE8, but almost the same thing
        happens with Firefox, Safari, Chrome and Opera... I cant
        figure out if this a .js problem or something to do with
        wordpress loop (as this is a custom loop which creates an
        unordered lists of some particular posts).

        At the same time <marquee> seems to do the job, extremely fast
        and without 'eating' my CPU's resources!!! I know that the
        particular html tag is a big NO NO these days and a not
        semantic element whatsoever...

        The situation is really tough as i need good performance and
        at the same time, to only use semantic elements in my code!!!

        If anyone has been through these problems before or knows
        anything about it i would really appreciate it!!!

        Best regards and many thanks to everyone!!! Have a good day.
