These scripts all scroll some information on the screen - either on the status bar (that bar on the bottom on your browser that says 'Document:Done') or in a text box. Some are very difficult to write - just look at the code.
Title:Box Message Contributor:Keith Swerling (keiths@topixonline.com) Contributor URL:http://www.TopiXonline.com Details: 1.31 KB * Uploaded December 17 1999 Description: Scrolls a message in a textbox. When the user clicks in the box, however, the scrolling text is stopped and the box can be used normally.
Title:Classic Scroll Details: 1.35 KB * Uploaded August 23 1997 Description: This is the classic scroll that you see EVERYWHERE! This script is also highly configurable (as are most in TJS). One more thing. Be aware that this effect does eventually get very annoying.
Title:Cryptic Scroller Contributor: Nebojsa Pajkic Contributor URL:http://justfreestuff.homepage.com Details: 1.88 KB * Uploaded February 28 2000 Description: Most of us never fulfilled our dream of working for the FBI or the CIA. But, that doesn't mean we can't play like we did! This script displays a cryptic series of numbers in the status bar at the bottom of the browser and decrypts it one letter a time. Sweet!
Title:Date & Time Details: 2.68 KB * Uploaded March 6 1998 Description: Yes, this is another JavaScript scroll. But, unlike the others, this one has the date & time included at the front of the first message! It looks very professional!
Title:Editor Details: 1.89 KB * Uploaded August 23 1997 Description: This is a very cool way to show you a little bit better how Javascript works. Go ahead. You can manipulate several different variables and then see the effects on the scroll box. Have fun!
Title:Expanding Text Contributor: Nicolas Contributor URL:http://www.javascript-page.com Details: 2.09 KB * Uploaded June 1 1999 Description: Draw attention to information on your site with JavaScript-powered expanding text! Just enter the text you want to use, the max size you want it to reach, and speed it should "grow" and it's ready to go. Neat!
Title:Flasher Details: 0.83 KB * Uploaded August 23 1997 Description: This script simply flashes (hence the name) a message on and off on your statusbar. This script probably got your attention better than the Classic Scroll but, is not used as much. The Flasher is just not as well known as the Classic Scroll.
Title:Keyboard Slider Contributor:Massimo Giari (motore@iol.it) Details: 2.32 KB * Uploaded September 20 2000 Description: Now you can move images and objects across the screen by simply using keys from the keyboard. Amazing!

Title:Marquee Contributor URL:http://www.geocities.com/SiliconValley/Horizon/5235 Details: 1.00 KB * Uploaded March 5 1998 Description: (Internet Explorer preferred) This JavaScript scrolls information back and forth across a page - the message appears to float back and forth! If you don't have Internet Explorer, it'll just show the message on the screen. Works great!
Title:News Scroller Contributor:Dion (yobo42@hotmail.com) Contributor URL:http://www.iinet.net.au/~biab/ Details: 2.71 KB * Uploaded October 26 1999 Description: Scrolling words along the bottom of the page is cool and all, but this one takes the cake.... You can scroll text, links, images, buttons, basically anything you want, in a little news like box on your site. And, you can have as many 'messages' as you want. Amazing!
Title:One Letter Contributor:Pun Man Kit (mkpunnl@netvigator.com) Details: 1.67 KB * Uploaded April 16 1998 Description: This script will scroll one letter at a time of your message until the entire message has been displayed! Very neat!

Title:Textarea Scroller Contributor:Tarjei Davidsen (the@rescueteam.com) Details: 1.89 KB * Uploaded February 8 2000 Description: Saves a great deal of space on a page by displaying an infinite amount of news, updates, or other information to your site's visitors in a textarea box through a typewriter style display. Internet Explorer users can also see a colored background in the textarea. The size of the textarea and the messages are all customizable. Great!
Title:Textbox Details: 1.30 KB * Uploaded August 23 1997 Description: This is another version of the infamous scroll. Although, this one scrolls your information in a text box and is far less 'annoying' that most of the status bar scrollers. Just imagine what you can draw attention to! Anything!
Title:Up & Down Vertical Scroller Contributor:Mike McGrath (mike_mcgrath@lineone.net) Contributor URL:http://website.lineone.net/~mike_mcgrath/ Details: 4.08 KB * Uploaded November 23 1999 Description: This script allows the user to scroll a vertical box up and down with two buttons.

Title:Vertical Boxes Contributor:Michael Tartaglia (stonedstan@hotmail.com) Contributor URL:http://www.geocities.com/SiliconValley/Horizon/5235 Details: 1.53 KB * Uploaded August 24 1998 Description: This is probably the most interesting scroll that doesn't use the browser's status bar (the bar at the bottom of the screen) or a text box on the page. Instead, it scrolls vertically up and down multiple text boxes! Take a look to see what we mean!
Title:Write And Slide Details: 1.09 KB * Uploaded August 23 1997 Description: This again is a very simple scroll. It keeps adding letters one by one across the status bar until the entire message is written out. Then, it quickly scrolls the entire to the left, until it is disappears from the status bar. Then the whole process starts again... Just look at the statusbar to see what I mean. Not very spectacular, but nice...
