>From the scroll text (marquee) test page at <http://www.hicom.net/~oedipus/wai/ua/tests/scrolling_text_test1.html> using: 1) MacOS X 10.1.5 2) no assisting programs 3) Mozilla 1.1b Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X; en-US; rv:1.1b) Gecko/20020730 4) no special settings 5) <marquee> is recognized by this browser. All three test paragraphs behaved as described in the instructions (ltr, rtl, back and forth scrolling). 6) I was unable to stop the text from scrolling in any of the 3 test cases via keyboard, mouse, or menu. Observations: Clicking/dragging on the text only selected parts of the text and it was difficult to select a specific string. If I selected a substring and waited for the text to scroll around so I could select the rest of the string, the original selection was lost. Reading the text was difficult, particularly in the example with text scrolling left to right. At narrow window widths, the entire text was often not be displayed at once. Adding "marquee { -moz-binding: none; display: block; height: auto !important; }" to the user style sheet completely disabled the text movement. Text could be selected normally and read with ease. Also, the entire text was shown, irrespective on window width. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo! Health - Feel better, live better http://health.yahoo.com
