Manual Up & Down controlled content

[jnscollier]

I really like the functionality that google uses to show their newest news. If you click the link below and look at the right side, I like the manual movement of content using the up and down arrows... I'm not sure if this is a scroller?

Anyone know? Anyone know where I can find a similar script?

Thanks

Take a look at this thread:

This is one of the only ones that I can think of off the top of my head (that is without really searching for it).

Hope this helps.

Yeah that example is similar to what I'm looking for but the script directions are hard to follow.

I'm trying to do a search on this, but can't seem to find the right scripts. Can anyone tell me what exactly this is called so I can locate a script?

This could easily be modified to look like that:

If i use the manual scroller, how can I get it to jump down or up in chunks of information (like google's does)?

Thanks

You can use these functions in place of the defaults:

function movedown(){
if (window.moveupvar) clearTimeout(moveupvar)
if (iens6&&parseInt(crossobj.style.top)>=(contentheight*(-1)+100))
crossobj.style.top=parseInt(crossobj.style.top)-40+"px"
else if (ns4&&crossobj.top>=(contentheight*(-1)+100))
crossobj.top-=40
}

function moveup(){
if (window.movedownvar) clearTimeout(movedownvar)
if (iens6&&parseInt(crossobj.style.top)<0)
crossobj.style.top=parseInt(crossobj.style.top)+40+"px"
else if (ns4&&crossobj.top<=0)
crossobj.top+=40
}

You may want to play with the numbers a bit. I chose 40 as, that is about the height of two lines of text and that is about how much the Google scroller moved with each click.
