Javascript scrollers

Scrolling for images, RSS feeds and more

JavaScript scrollers are often used to squeeze more dynamic content into pages or sidebars. Look to the right of this page, there are three types of scrollers for images, feeds or brief text abstracts and hyperlinks. There are many different types of JavaScript scrollers, but the downside of using them is that they take a bit longer to load and run than plain HTML marquee scrollers; but more importantly, the search engine bots have difficulty parsing content that is inside of JavaScript. Google will probably not see the great stuff you have in your JavaScript.

Zazzle has a very neat JavaScript content 'scroller' for marketing tee shirts and printed items. If you intend to use your scroller to sell your own products, the easiest way by far is to simply upload your gallery to Zazzle and you will have your online store up and running in an hour or less.

If you want to create your own script without using Zazzle there are a number of ways to do it.
