[solved] Marquee failing to scroll and show content

Is there any news about these modules?

I've just reactivated Marquee on a school site and its failing to scroll or indeed show any content at all.

I've searched fruitlessly for an alternative module that will allow me to show scrolling content so I'm hanging out for any good news here.

I'm working on News at the moment, but I'll take a look at Marquee today. I'll let you know what the problem is.

I should be able to solve the content showing problem however the problem with scrolling (probably javascript) will be more difficult to solve.
I'll report back after I've taken a look.

Can you tell me a bit more about the Marquee you added?
Is it a fixed text or is it from a module? Which module?
Can you tell the behaviour, direction and loop settings?
Are you using Marquee on ImpressCMS?
With the module's options (preferences), did you set the Method to use to "Marquee" or Javascript?
Can you try the "Marquee" option instead of the Javascript option?

I've managed to get the Marquee working for ImpressCMS with a tinyMCE editor, using the Marquee method
with a fixed text

I've managed to get the Marquee working for ImpressCMS with a tinyMCE editor, using the Marquee method (haven't tried javascript)
with the News module

could be a javascript library conflict.

@lucidlee - xoops or ImpressCMS? Which version? Any other js libraries being loaded?

Sorry about the slow reply - I was monitoring a related thread I started ("imagemanager seems broken") and forgot about this one. The short answer is that this was a xoops 2.0.17 site, upgraded a couple of years ago to icms 1.0 (I think) and since upgraded whenever icms went final, so now its 1.2.1.

I added marquee a few years ago too and it worked well enough with fixed text (faultlessly but clunky to set up) until the latest icms upgrade. I've been posting my js errors to the related thread and while the first one was in xoops.js subsequent ones appear to be in deprecated js frameworks (scriptaculous and one other, lost to memory). Once I started comparing the website against a virgin icms 1.2.1 directory I realized there is a fair bit of xoops related cruft in there so I deleted what was obviously unnecessary too. I don't know if I got it all, nor do I know if the remaining files are the latest, although since the rest of the site functions perfectly I suppose its up to date.

Firefox is no longer reporting js errors and Marquee is now scrolling again but I still can't get ImageManager to insert an imagelink. I can insert the links by hand, so Marquee is no longer the problem. I guess the answer will arise in the other thread.
