Newsfeed mod?

[losthai]

Has anyone built such a thing for 1.4.1? Specifically thinking of the free feed from moreover.com

thanks.

Aw, nuts! Now I done gone and dropped this into my template--

Code Select Expand

<tr>
<td width="100%" bgcolor="#FFFFFF">
<applet codebase="http://p.moreover.com/dr/ticker_applet/"
code="JavaTicker.class" width=100% height=16 MAYSCRIPT>
<param name="feed" value="c=Southeast%20Asia%20news&o=tsv">
<param name="speed" value="2">
<param name="delay" value="20">
<param name="bgcolor" value="ffb600">
<param name="Font1" value="Arial, 12, 0, 000000">
<param name="Font2" value="Arial, 12, 2, 000000"></applet></td><tr>

speed, delay and bgcolor work, as do the font sizes [12 in mine], styles [0 is plain, 1 is bold, 2 is italic, 3 is bold italic], and text color [000000 is, suprise!, black]. But it seems like it's all Arial, all the time, no matter what. You can also change the height and width attributes in the applet tag, lah!

Enjoy! [Yes, I took this off a phpBB mod.]
