um, I have a marquee of 
scrolling accross my user space.
Is there any way of having it scroll forever, or will it have to break at some point? 
(see my page for example! Watch the fish, they do stop coming!)

I believe if you remove SCROLLAMOUNT="20" from the tag it will scroll forever.

does that mean that it will only scroll 20 times?
What I mean is that I want a continuous line of fish, without the gap in the middle. To join the start and end together.

Oh I see. 
Well scrollamount="20" will scroll the item 20 times. I don't actually think it's possible to make a continuous line of I'm afraid.
The Marquee tag performs a function. It takes whatever it's given and scrolls it, then it leaves a break and scrolls it again, I don't think you can change that.

You might want to know that users of browsers other than Internet Explorer won't see a marquee at all - just a large block of fish.

As far as I know, every browser other than IE: Netscape Navigator, Opera, NetPositive, Konqueror, etc.

It's one of the reasons why HTML 'purists' (such as myself) refuse to use at all .
