    Post Cross Browser Marquee text monthy auto change

    I am using your excellent Cross Browser Marquee script to display a monthly item on my not-for-profit society website. At the moment I have to manually change the text each month. I would expect that it would be possible to modify the script to automate the change-over each month using the getMonth() function. Can someone suggest a suitable modification.
