Please post the url of the problem code.

In what capacity is it not working? One problem I can think of is that you didn't download the javascript libraries and put them in the right directory.

Yeah, works fine with the scripts in the same folder:

http://home.comcast.net/~jscheuer1/side/mikes-scroll/mike_2_h.htm

But there could be some other problem or problems in addition to or in place of missing files.

If you want more help, please include a link to the page on your site that contains the problematic code so we can check it out.
