Stop me if you've heard this a thousand times before but it's about the news ticker. I hope I'm in the right place. I followed your instructions to the letter and everything was going swimmigly, until I tried to change the text. All i get now is the news ticker heading and a closed box. I'm not all that brilliant where the technical side of forums comes in, but i get by. Any help you could give would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Can I ask which guide are you following as there's three at current two of which are locked and shouldn't be used.

This should be the one your using?

**EDIT**

This is the source code from your news ticker, which tells me your using the fader and not a news ticker from one of my guides.

Your fader is working for me in Firefox2, but may be slow due to the falling snowflakes.

Code:
<table class="forumline" align="center" border="0" cellpadding="4" cellspacing="1" width="100%">

<!--BEGIN switch_fader_title -->
   <tbody><tr>
        <th class="thCornerL" height="25" nowrap="nowrap"><font color="cyan">News</font></th>
     </tr>
<!--END switch_categories_title -->    
 
<tr>
<td align="center">


<div id="fscroller" style="padding: 2px; font-family: Verdana,Arial; font-weight: bold; width: 100%; height: 100px; opacity: 0.9;">The competition to get your written piece on the webpage is still running. So get scribbling. All we want is a small piece about what you think of this forum.</div><script language="JavaScript1.2" type="text/javascript">

if (""=="")
{

{

}
if (""=="")
{

</script>
</td></tr>

</tbody></table>


Also to correct it's look find:
<td align="center">

and add in:
class="row1"

so you should get:
<td align="center" class="row1">

I changed to the fader to see if it would work better. It did. Now i can changed text and links with no trouble. With the ticker i changed one letter on one of the line ad it all disappeared, change it back and it was back again. Funny.
