TinyScroller

Parameters

LINE1 - LINE100 (Some Required)

- LINE1 through LINE100 make up the content to be displayed. If you're not using all 100 lines you don't have to define them all but the applet will stop reading lines at the first NULL line it encounters.

BGRED, BGGREEN, BGBLUE (Optional)

- You may set the background color of the applet by passing the one byte (0-255) RGB (Red, Green and Blue) component values. The background color defaults to white.

FGRED, FGGREEN, FGBLUE (Optional)

- You may set the foreground (font) color for the applet by passing the one byte (0-255) RGB (Red, Green and Blue) component values. The foreground color defaults to white.

FONTNAME and FONTSIZE (Optional)

- You may force the font type and size by passing these values. If you pass one, you'll need to pass both.

SPACING (Optional)

- You may define the line spacing by passing it as a parameter. Spacing defaults to twelve.

DELAY (Optional)

- Delay controls the time interval between shifts in the line positions. Delay defaults to 100 milliseconds.

XPOS (Optional)

- XPOS stands for X position, this controls the horizontal position of the lines within the applet. XPOS defaults to five.

DIRECTION (Optional)

- DIRECTION allows you to specify whether you want the applet to scroll up (DIRECTION=0) or to scroll down (DIRECTION=1). DIRECTION defaults to zero.

BACKGROUND (Optional)

- If you wish to use a graphic for the background of the applet, pass the filename here. You may pass a JPG or GIF. Displaying a graphic does, however, impact the speed of the screen update. As a result, you may notice a flicker. Also, bear in mind that the graphic will move with the text. I don't wrap the graphic so it should be large enough (larger than the applet) to display continuously.
