Could you please tell me how & where to adjust the number of feeds the rss pausecroller grabs?

To answer your questions:

1) Not with this script unfortunately, which can only show one feed at a time. You can check out gAjax RSS scroller for such an ability instead.

2) Sure, just find this line in the .js file:

setTimeout(function(){scrollerinstance.animateup()}, 50)

and increase 50 to a larger number, such as 100 or 150

3) You can edit this line within the script, by adding to it the line in red:

var description='<div class="rssdescription">'+unescape(rsscontent.description)+'</div>'
description=description.substring(0, 100)

100 in this case would mean return the first 100 characters of the description.

Was there something wrong with the changes I had posted above? If so please let me know what, just for the sake of other members that may be having the same problem.

This is really a function of LastRSS, the PHP parser used by the script. It simply returns all the items within your feed I believe.

Sorry to get back so late....
Nothing wrong with what you wrote, I just typed it in wrong while editing.

Well, I would love to be able to set the no. of items. Well this scroller just may be too limiting for me. I may have to try out the rss box or something like that when I have time.

Again, there's always gAjax RSS scroller
