    Dynamic Scrolling Link List XML driven (No Wrap)

    An interactive link list. Vertically scrolling list of links or just text. Could be used for a nav menu or a link list, or even just a scrolling list. Scroll speed calculated dynamically from mouse position to give not only scrolling control, but also speed control. Reads an external XML file containing just titles and url paths and creates this interactive click-able link list! On click the link is highlighted and on release loads the url either in a blank window or not (configurable). On rollover the list item grows with animation and is highlighted (all configurable, size speed etc). Once end of list is reached scrolling stops, another version is available with a wrap-around feature: Dynamic Scrolling Link List XML driven Auto wrapping

      Hi Valerie,

      I don’t know if you are still following this post, but I tried seeing if it is possible to add the text wrapping feature. I was however unable to achieve this. But I did a little googling and have found this interesting componnet. It’s developed by a flash team and I could download it free from http://www.flashxml.net/html-content-scroller.html.
      It allows you to use HTML formatted text, links, text wrapping and images.
      If you are still reading this post, I really recommend you try it, plus it’s free.
