I would like for a marquee to loop once then stop mid screen.
This is the line I currently have but it scrolls all the way off of the screen. how can I get it to stop at the left margin?


<marquee bgcolor="#00000g" loop="1" ;="" scrollamount="20"
width="100%">blah blah blah</marquee>

Also the background is transparent and I just luckily did that by mistake is 00000g a legitimate color code for transparent?

Thanks

is 00000g a legitimate color code for transparent?

No! just invalid.


BTW It is almost 2010 why are you using code that has been deprecated for 10 years?

Because I am brand new at this and it is all i know to do.
I was told to start by learning html so that is what I am doing. I am starting from the basics that I find as I search the net. If you have some suggestions on improving my learning curve I have another thread that discusses this;
