You've probably heard this beforeStop 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%">

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.
