The document summarizes the attributes of the HTML <marquee> tag, which is used to create scrolling text on a webpage. It describes attributes that control the direction, speed, looping, background color, and spacing of the scrolling text. While the <marquee> tag is deprecated in HTML5, these attributes could previously be used to customize the appearance and behavior of scrolling text created with this tag.

3. An HTML marquee is a scrolling piece of text displayed either horizontally
across or vertically down your webpage depending on the settings. This is
created by using HTML <marquees> tag.
Note − The <marquee> tag deprecated in HTML5. Do not use this element,
instead you can use JavaScript and CSS to create such effects.

4. Sr.No Attribute & Description

etc.

5. 6 scrollamount

6. Width and Height Attributes
WIDTH and HEIGHT set the dimensions of the marquee.
<marquee width=200 height=50>Hello</marquee>
Neither attribute is required. The default value for WIDTH is 100%. The HEIGHT
defaults to the natural height of content as it appears in the width.
DIRECTION=LEFT, which is the default, indicates that the marquee starts at the right
and moves leftwards across the page. DIRECTION=RIGHT indicates that the marquee
starts at the left and moves rightwards across the page.
<marquee direction="left">Classroom. </marquee>
<marquee direction="right">Classroom.
</marquee>
The Direction Attribute

7. The Behavior Attribute
BEHAVIOR indicates how the contents scroll.
BEHAVIOR=SCROLL, which is the default, indicates that the content should scroll off
the edge of the marquee area, then reappear on the other side.
This code:
<marquee behavior=scroll>Hello</marquee>
BEHAVIOR=SLIDE is almost the same, except that it indicates that when the
leading part content reaches the left edge it should stop without scrolling off.
Notice in this example that the contents stop scrolling as soon as the “H” reaches
the left side:
<marquee behavior=slide>Hello</marquee>

8. BEHAVIOR=ALTERNATE makes the content bounce back and forth, all of it
remaining visible all the time (assuming of course that it all fits).
<marquee behavior=alternate>Hello</marquee>

9. The Scrollamount Attribute
SCROLLAMOUNT, together with SCROLLDELAY, sets the speed of the scrolling. Marquee
moves the content by displaying the content, then delaying for some short period of
time, then displaying the content again in a new position.
SCROLLAMOUNT sets the size in pixels of each jump. A higher value for SCROLLAMOUNT
makes the marquee scroll faster. The default value is 6. The following examples
demonstrate the default value for SCROLLAMOUNT, a value of 20 and 50.
<marquee> Hello </marquee>
<marquee scrollamount=20> Hello </marquee>
<marquee scrollamount=50> Hello </marquee>

10. The BGColor Attribute BGCOLOR sets the background color of the marquee.
<marquee bgcolor=cyan> Hello </marquee>

11. HSpace and VSpace Attributes
<marquee width="25%" bgcolor=cyan><p> Classroom </p> We are simply different.
</p></marquee> Welcome
<marquee hspace=10 width="25%" bgcolor=cyan><p> Classroom </p> We are simply
different. </p></marquee> Welcome
<marquee hspace=50 width="25%" bgcolor=cyan><p> Classroom </p> We are simply
different. </p></marquee> Welcome
HSPACE sets the horizontal space to the left and right of the marquee. VSPACE sets the
vertical space at the top and bottom of the marquee.
HSPACE has no effect unless you also use the HSPACE attribute. These three code
examples show the default value of HSPACE (which is 0) and two larger values:

12. VSPACE sets the space between the marquee and text before and after.
These code examples show the default value of VSPACE (also 0) and two larger
values:
Mission 2020 <marquee width="25%" bgcolor=cyan><p> Classroom </p> We are simply
different. </p></marquee> Welcome
Mission 2020 <marquee vspace=10 width="25%" bgcolor=cyan><p> Classroom </p> We
are simply different. </p></marquee> Welcome
Mission 2020 <marquee vspace=50 width="25%" bgcolor=cyan><p> Classroom </p> We
are simply different. </p></marquee> Welcome

13. The Loop Attribute LOOP sets howmany times the marquee shouldloop.
The default value (i.e. if you don’t put a LOOP attribute at all) is INFINITE,
which means that the marquee loops endlessly. This code creates a marquee
that loops twice:
One of the problems with LOOP is that the content disappears after the last
loop. To set the marquee so that the content is visible when the looping is
done set BEHAVIOR=SLIDE:
<marquee loop=2> Classroom</marquee>
<marquee loop=2 behavior=slide> Classroom</marquee>
