Re: Re: Subject: Scrolling News

Thanks for that, it does look great, however I seem to be encountering some
problems with it and alas I can't seem to find the problem.
The code for the header (which is where this is located) is


mysql_select_db($database_Connection1, $Connection1);
$query_News = "SELECT ss_news.news_title FROM ss_news ORDER BY
ss_news.news_date";
$News = mysql_query($query_News, $Connection1) or die(mysql_error());
$row_News = mysql_fetch_assoc($News);
$totalRows_News = mysql_num_rows($News);
?>

Now, can you see the causes of these two errors... "A runtime error has occurred. Do you wish to Debug, Line: 20 Error: Expected "9"

Are you using pine to edit? Or a HTML editior. If HTML or notepad you have the option of turning "wordwrap" on/off. Use this to find line number.

With PHP/Javascript knowledge you should be able to easily identify the problem. I just counted the lines in the email you posted for your code. Incidently you need to know how lines work in PHP in an email form, one line can carry to another line. Generally you look for the ; icon to end code, generally means a new enter but not all the time. But in a query state it does 99% of the time.

I'll give you a hint, look at line 20 and think about adding a space or two. And also "A runtime error has occurred. Do you wish to Debug, Line: 36 Error: 'scroller1' is undefined.

It's undefined, define it, look on a javascript website for this error, explained nicely. Any help on this issue is greatly appriciated.
