Variations
The MARQUEE element is a MS Internet Explorer 2.0 enhancement.
Based on the description it might be assumed that only parsed
character data may be in the content of the MARQUEE element.
The ALIGN attribute defines the location of the text within the marquee.
The BEHAVIOR attribute determines whether the text will
scroll completely in and completely off (the default),
slide in and stay,
or bounce between alternate sides of the marquee.
The BGCOLOR attribute defines the background color for the marquee,
which is specified as an "#rrggbb" number, or
the following color names:
Black, Maroon, Green, Olive, Navy, Purple, Teal, Gray, Silver, Red, Lime,
Yellow, Blue, Fuchsia, Aqua, White.
The DIRECTION attribute specifies the direction towards which the
text should flow.
The HEIGHT attribute specifies the height of the marquee, either
in pixels or with a percentsign character suffix to define a
percentage of the entire screen height.
The HSPACE and VSPACE attributes are specified in pixels
and define the amount to separate the marquee from surrounding text.
The LOOP attribute specifies how many times the text will loop.
If LOOP=-1 or LOOP=INFINITE,
the text will loop indefinately.
The SCROLLAMOUNT specifies the number of pixels and
the SCROLLDELAY specifies the number of milliseconds
between each successive draw of the marquee text.
