More PHP for me too.

However, a question of clarification--
Should it loop or jump back? The difference is that looping would be smooth and jumping would be obvious to someone watching it. Depending on use, you might need one or the other.

A loop would be great or a jump back to the top as in the top action in the script

I have tried a few things with this but , i still have not managed it, any help would be much appreciated

I assume you mean move back up and scroll down again in a loop? If so, just replace the old function movedown() with the below instead:

function movedown(){
if (window.moveupvar) clearTimeout(moveupvar)
if (iens6){
if (parseInt(crossobj.style.top)>=(contentheight*(-1)+100))
crossobj.style.top=parseInt(crossobj.style.top)-speed+"px"
else
crossobj.style.top=0
}
else if (ns4&&crossobj.top>=(contentheight*(-1)+100))
crossobj.top-=speed
movedownvar=setTimeout("movedown()",20)
}

Many Thanks!!

The function works perfect, one last tweak would be great, could I set a delay before it jumps back to the top?

To enable a pause before the content scrolls back up and downwards again, use the below movedown() function instead:

function movedown(){
if (window.moveupvar) clearTimeout(moveupvar)
if (iens6){
if (parseInt(crossobj.style.top)>=(contentheight*(-1)+100)){
crossobj.style.top=parseInt(crossobj.style.top)-speed+"px"
movedownvar=setTimeout("movedown()",20)
}
else
movedownvar=setTimeout("crossobj.style.top=0; movedown()", 1000)
}
}

Here 1000 means wait for 1 second- you can change that to your own.

You are a star, many many thanks!
