Creating A Scrolling Text Box in Publisher 2000

Hi

I'm creating a website for my partner's soccer team and under "Match
Reports", as there is a lot of information, I am trying to create a scrolling
text box which will take a lot of information.

I've tried inserting a multiline text box but it only allows for a very
small amount of information. Is there a way to do it in Publisher where I can
enter all this information?

Thanks.

You have to code this yourself using the html code fragment dialog. I'd
assume you don't know any html... alas I have a code snippet for this that
you can copy from over at

Thanks David

I actually do know a lot of html, when it comes to creating eBay pages etc
but doing webpages through Publisher had me a bit stumped.

I ended up getting around it by creating links to subsequent pages with each
match report on a different page. The team ended up preferring it that way.

Thanks for taking the time.

Regards
