This is a Cross Browser Javascript Button Ticker that ticks a number of messages on a button.You can change the direction in which the message ticks. (i.e the order in which the message ticks).
This ticker is very easy to customise. You can add any number of messages and their corresponding URLs. Messages must be added to the array ticker_msg and the URLs must
be added to the array ticker_url.
This ticker ticks the messages on a button. You can change the style of the button easily.
The ticker speed can be changed easily by changing the value of the variable ticker_speed. (Here it is 1, which means that the message would change every 1 second.)
To use this script, you just have to copy the <script> section of the source and paste it wherever you require on your web page.
