Hi

Most people have seen a script similar to the following which displays a list of messages like a screensaver in a text area box however does anyone know how to display these messages in the same screensaver format but not inside one of the text boxes? I dont mind if its in between a <td></td> or if its in between a <h2></h2> however I would like it to be displayed without any visiable boundaries.

Can anyone help?


Code:
<html>
<head>
<script src="gets.js"></script>
</head>
<body onload="slidemessage()">

<table name="slideshow">
<tr>
<td></td>
</tr>
</table>


<form name="slideshow"><div align="center"><center>

<textarea rows="5" name="S11" cols="30" wrap="virtual"></textarea><br>
      <!--<input type="button" value="Take me there!" name="B1" onClick="window.location=messagelinks[curmsg]">--></p>
      </center></div>
    </form>


</body>
</html>

javascript code:

Code:
var curmsg=-1
var messages=new Array()
messages[0]="Check out CNN, one of the premier news site on the net, covering national international, sports, and wheather news!"
messages[1]="Visit Wired.com for the latest happenings in the technology sector."
messages[2]="Go to download.com to download the latest shareware and demo programs!"
//add more messages as desired

var messagelinks=new Array()
messagelinks[0]="[URL unfurl="true"]http://www.cnn.com"[/URL]
messagelinks[1]="[URL unfurl="true"]http://www.wired.com"[/URL]
messagelinks[2]="[URL unfurl="true"]http://www.download.com"[/URL]
//add more links as indicated by the number of messages 

function slidemessage(){
if (curmsg<messages.length-1)
curmsg++
else
curmsg=0
//document.getelementbyname("s").value=messages[curmsg]
document.slideshow[0].value=messages[curmsg]
setTimeout("slidemessage()",4500)
}
slidemessage()
