We want to have a news ticker at the bottom the webpage that looks the same as the TV ones for CNN or FOX News.

Our client has HD TV Monitors (1920 x 1080) showing their company homepage in their customer waiting rooms.

So at the bottom of the homepage which we create for them (which actually self-refreshes every 5 minutes), we want CNN or FOX News tickers. Naturally non-clickable/no links etc.

I have looked at the example at http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex17/rsstickerajax/index.htm but it's more for desktop users.

Does dynamic drive have what we want -- something that emulates the actual look and functionality of the TV CNN or FOX tickers?

You can try using: http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex2/crawler/index.htm

And positioning it absolutely to the bottom of your screen

The closest I can come to what you want is here:

You could resize the width and use two in div next to each other.

I know this is not what you see on those tv channels you mention but I am not am not sure if one of the local gurus could make them scroll left like you want.

Hopefully someone is working on that revision and will post it when they get it done
