how to use a marquee type control in asp.net

Question

I have a news table in my database which stores the news submitted by the teachers of my school.

Now i want to show these news headlines to students in their profile page. But the way i want to implement is the one like shown in BWF . The Global Headlines column . Please refer.

I want to show these stored headlines in vertical rotation.

Also , how does this randomly change when some new news has been added by the teachers.

If there are other methods of implementing this such as jscripts and jquery , i am also open to them.

Please help.

Thanks.

Have you tried anything so far???

Sehaj 9-Oct-13 1:48am

i am unable to group my thoughts over this. I did try using the simple marquee control but it didn't work.

Moreover , since i wanted to dynamically get the news from the databases, i could find no way out to implement this.

I was also trying this some months before but I could not find the perfect solution for this. So, I simply used <marquee> for the purpose. Visual studio will show the warning message but that will not affect your system.

Check my answer, we have jQuery plugins for News. That will be very easy and you can also do it instead of marquee.

Thanks for info, but I need that before six month for Final Year Project. But I completed it with just using marquee :), will be using these plugin if required in future.
