This is a Javascript Text Box Ticker that ticks a number of messages on a Text Box.
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.
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.
