Leveraging the YUI; A Functional News Scroller Part Two
In part one of this tutorial, we looked at getting the basics of the scroller in working order. We've created our XML data source and extracted the relevant information from it and displayed it on the page. In this part, we're going to refine it initially by making it actually look like a news scroller. We'll then add some additional features that make it pause scrolling when the mouse pointer rolls over a news item, and deal with the issue of linking to or displaying the full story information in some way.
