Scrollable content II Modification Help

[devinrayolsen]

Hi,
I was wondering if anyone could help me make the below script scroll text not up and down but left and right.

http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex11/scrollc2.htm

I have been trying to accomplish this for sometime now but I am not that good with JavaScript.

I don't want to change any of the internal workings of the script but only need it to be scrolling left to right instead of up and down.

Can anyone please help me with this?

MANY MANY Thanks in advance.
Devin.

Change the script to:

<script type="text/javascript">

iens6=document.all||document.getElementById
ns4=document.layers

//specify speed of scroll (greater=faster)
var speed=5

if (iens6){
document.write('<div id="container" style="position:relative;width:175px;height:160px;border:1px solid black;overflow:hidden">')
document.write('<div id="content" style="position:absolute;width:170px;left:0;top:0">')
}
</script>
