Hi there

I was wondering if somehow can be done that those Topic Names from Board News Block can be written in news base.

So let say, for example:

I choose to show 10 topics in board news block and each topic name is written to news db. Hope you understand what I'm saying about.

Later i'll use news in <marquee> to scrool latest news :]

Thanks in advance.

I have done it using a PHP Block by placing a call to "board news" block  between marquee tag.

sp_boardnews(32.0); 

As I use one board exclusively for the latest news, I don't have to filter it further. 

Hope this would help you



cheers!

Not really, can you show me your script

[bvs]

other than the call to sp_boardnews function which is part of SP standard functions, the remaing code is for the marquee. Please note that  I found the HTML version of  this marquee script at  www.dynamicdrive.com and had to convert to pure PHP to put it in a PHP block.

[code]
echo "<style type='text/css'>";
echo "";
echo "#marqueecontainer{";
echo "position: relative;";
echo "width: 200px; /*marquee width */";
echo "height: 200px; /*marquee height */";
echo "background-color: white;";
echo "overflow: hidden;";
echo "border: 3px solid orange;";
echo "padding: 2px;";
echo "padding-left: 4px;";
echo "}";
echo "";
echo "</style>";
echo "";
echo "<script type='text/javascript'>";
echo "";
echo "/***********************************************";
echo "* Cross browser Marquee II-

I've searched in ManagaNews.php file from Source folder and found this

updateSettings(array('news' => implode("\n", $_POST['news'])));

Could be used in New Block when reading last news to update or something.

Any help
