Use the Cross Browser Marquee script, you can use HTML where the text is input.
Works for me.

As cr3ative said:

I.E The text and the link are seperate, so you can display what you want and link to the site is they want the easy route. rgds,Simonf :cool:

Hi,

You could display the code in an inline frame. If you dont know how to do this there is a great tutorial on webmonkey. http://webmonkey.wired.com/webmonkey/96/37/index2a.html?tw=authoring

You can keep your code you want to supply on a seperate page but display it in an iframe
alternatively you could display a text box
<input type="text" value="your text goes here" name="textarea" align="top"
maxlength="25" size="40">

the text you want to display goes in the value and you can change align to where you want the box and change you sizes to what you require. I hope this answers your question.
