edit: fixed it with a <base target="_blank">

thx.

mad props. that is exactly the simple code I was looking for. need to adjust the widths and such but now it works!

thx.

Put this code in your page instead:

<iframe src="http://app.feeddigest.com/digest3/PUTYOURDIGESTIDHERE.html" width="200" height="300"></iframe>

This will let you include the HTML version successfully. Make sure to use the right URL in there (copy and paste from the existing JavaScript call and then change the .js to .html)

<style type="text/css">

#marqueecontainer{
position: relative;
width: 200px; /*marquee width */
height: 200px; /*marquee height */
background-color: white;
overflow: hidden;
border: 3px solid orange;
padding: 2px;
padding-left: 4px;
}

</style>

<script type="text/javascript">

var delayb4scroll=2000 //Specify initial delay before marquee starts to scroll on page (2000=2 seconds)
var marqueespeed=2 //Specify marquee scroll speed (larger is faster 1-10)
var pauseit=1 //Pause marquee onMousever (0=no. 1=yes)?

var copyspeed=marqueespeed
var pausespeed=(pauseit==0)? copyspeed: 0
var actualheight=''

function scrollmarquee(){
if (parseInt(cross_marquee.style.top)>(actualheight*(-1)+8)) //if scroller hasn't reached the end of its height
cross_marquee.style.top=parseInt(cross_marquee.style.top)-copyspeed+"px" //move scroller upwards
else //else, reset to original position
cross_marquee.style.top=parseInt(marqueeheight)+8+"px"
}

function initializemarquee(){
cross_marquee=document.getElementById("vmarquee")
cross_marquee.style.top=0
marqueeheight=document.getElementById("marqueecontainer").offsetHeight
actualheight=cross_marquee.offsetHeight //height of marquee content (much of which is hidden from view)
if (window.opera || navigator.userAgent.indexOf("Netscape/7")!=-1){ //if Opera or Netscape 7x, add scrollbars to scroll and exit
cross_marquee.style.height=marqueeheight+"px"
cross_marquee.style.overflow="scroll"
return
}
setTimeout('lefttime=setInterval("scrollmarquee()",30)', delayb4scroll)
}

if (window.addEventListener)
window.addEventListener("load", initializemarquee, false)
else if (window.attachEvent)
window.attachEvent("onload", initializemarquee)
else if (document.getElementById)
window.onload=initializemarquee

</script>

<div id="marqueecontainer" onMouseover="copyspeed=pausespeed" onMouseout="copyspeed=marqueespeed">
<div id="vmarquee" style="position: absolute; width: 98%;">

And then this below..

</div>
</div>

Do not copy this from above in case the forum software has messed it up. However, this code is available to copy and paste from your digest edit panel when using the Scrolling Box template.

thanks for your help. don't want to change the template - most likely will f things up for rest of the site.

raising the white flag. will settle for plain digest.

if anyone has other suggestions lemme know.

thanks for the 411. put java script into side bar. it shows up but does not scroll :(
you can see at http://www.mashuptown.com left column near bottom.

upgraded account anyway. hope i can get this working.

thx.

If using a scrolling template is absolutely essential, this is possible to do with some tweaking in the manual view. I think all you'd need to do is copy and paste the JavaScript scroller code from the header template into your actual page template at TypePad, and then remove it from the FeedDigest header.

don't you have simple html code that will allow someone to use the digest in a sidebar (i use typepad)

thanks.

Perhaps adding a note to this template to specify its anti-JS properties will be a better course of action though.

Do you have the capability to use the PHP code instead? It's possible to make normal .html files contain PHP so it might be workable :) Otherwise.. in theory you can copy and paste the scroller code separately and tweak your template to just output the digest section and it'd work, but it'll require a little editing.

It works via the link above, but not when the javascript code is embedded into my site. Is something wrong with this feature?
