Hey guys, I am trying to apply a color to Eric's scrolling marquee code and it's not working.. the color is not showing up..

<marquee bgcolor="#242424" loop="-1" scrollamount="2" width="100%">Horizontally Scrolling Marquee</marquee>
<div id="text" class="text">Home</div>

div.text { color: yellow; text-decoration: none; font-size:40pt; }
div.text:hover { color: green; text-decoration: none;font-size:40pt }

You got -1 as a loop, now I haven't used marquee for a million years but try 1 or above

It's easy to overlook something you're not looking for.

-1 is continuous looping.

Yeah, man it is so long since I've used Marquee tag, even when I did, it was only occasionally. Think some browsers were thinking of dropping it. Javascript is better for scrolling but not as easy, the ease of Marquee is it's strong point.
