Marquee help please

[Johny]

Hi all

I have been asked to include a marquee onto a site.

What is required is the marquee to be on all pages of the site and it wants
to be changeable at any time without editing every page.

Is there a way that the marquee can call up a txt file, this text file could
then be easily changed whenever the customer wants to change the wording.

Thanks
John

You have a dumb customer and your customer has a dumb employee.

Use server side processing and include it wherever you want it.

No. But with server-side includes, it doesn't need to "call up a txt
file", it only has to be inserted where you want it to show. And as an
include file, it could be a plain text file that the "customer" can edit
at will.
