Does anyone know of a way to have a scrolling news ticker that can be updated via CMSB?

Many thanks!

Here's one I've been using. The CSS is a little sloppy, so you may want to clean it up a bit... I just haven't had time to touch it since I first messed with it. It's set to build a box 350px X 350px once it loads. I don't have it set to auto-scroll news, but according to the website there is a speed option that can be set. It works with a "multi" menu type.

Get easySlider jQuery here: http://cssglobe.com/post/3783/jquery-plugin-easy-image-or-content-slider

============== Head Code ==============
// load news slider records
list($newsSliderRecords, $newsSliderMetaData) = getRecords(array(
'tableName' => 'news',
'limit' => '7',
));

<?PHP
function maxWords($html, $maxWords) {
$html = str_replace("<li>","<p>",$html);
$html = str_replace("</li>","</p>",$html);
$html = str_replace("<p>","*P*",$html);
$html = str_replace("</p>","*/P*",$html);
$html = str_replace("<"," <",$html);
$text = strip_tags($html);
$words = preg_split("/\s+/", $text, $maxWords+1);
if (count($words) > $maxWords) { unset($words[$maxWords]); }
$output = join(' ', $words);
$output=str_replace("*P*","<p>",$output);
$output=str_replace("*/P*","</p>",$output);
$output.="...</p>";

return $output;
}

You could also do this with JavaScript. You could try searching for [jquery news ticker].

Best of luck!

Most are less than $10.

I would choose one which is XML based and then use CMSB to update the XML file which the Flash ticker uses.

Hope this helps.
