PauseScroller question...

[Rfoate]

1) Script Title: pauseScroller

2) Script URL (on DD): http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex2/crosstick.htm

3) Describe problem: thanks for the great scroller, I have been using it for many years. Now however I have the scroller behind a header menu option, so it is not visible until a user selects/hovers over the option. The scroller is of course running already, which causes no issues, except in IE8, where the text is visible over other elements as it scrolls. Z-index doesn't help in this situation as the scroller has to roll above the orher elements when it is actually meant to be visible.

Is there a way to not have the scroller start until a user selects the menu option ?

Thanks for any help.

Hi

Thanks for your interest. The site is http://www.dvdorchard.com.au. You will probably see the issue on any page, providing you're viewing it in IE8 of course !

Sorry, i should qualify - the default page, and any other of the 4 pages with a carousel on them, don't have this issue as they are running in Compatibility Mode - so the Carousel works !

Can't see my earlier reply now - it advised that the site is www.dvdorchard.com.au - go past the default page to a page without a carousel and you will see white text scrolling upwards at the top of the page, under Testimonials.
