Marquee II Scrolling Time Between Star and End of News

[Badge]

Ok I have this site Im working on http://www.oceancup.com/ and I got the script working to display my news. My news is being generated by CuteNews and as you can see its all working great. What I hate is the long pause from the end of all the news to the repeat of the news. How can this be eliminated to be seemless?

I found on example durring my search of the forums but it was for text only and wont work with a php include.

Yes the script is working, I said that, what I want is not to have the long pause at the very end before it starts rotating through the news again.

Could we see a link to the other solution? Also it doesn't matter whether the html is hand coded or from a php include.

anyone got an idea?

Can I ask why you don't just use that? I see nowhere is the source that says it will only work for text.

There is one line of code in the example where they say all news must be on the same line, well if I sub in an include it doesnt work.

what I meant was that I did not see a long delay in the time between the two.... I tested in both IE and Firefox (latest versions available to PC) and I did not see any significant delay.

well this should be solved serverside then. I haven't tested this by the way.
Put all of this code where your include was

<?php
ob_start();
//Replace with your include
include('blah.html');
$ob_contents = ob_get_contents();
ob_end_clean();
$ob_contents = str_replace('\n',' ',$ob_contents);
$ob_contents = str_replace("'","\'",$ob_contents);
echo $ob_contents;
?>
