Hello all,I'd like to create a news scroller for a client website i am building where they can update the content in a MySQL database and the results get pulled ino the site into a scroller feature that will transition through all the topics listed.  Can anyone point me in the right direction or assit me in getting started?  I realize that Java is probably the best solution but wasn't sure if Spry might also be a possiblity.  Thanks in advance for the help..Josh Henry

thanks, that is essentially what i am going for, however, i'd like it to auto scroll through all the elements it pulled from the database in a "page-by-page" transition. How to achieve the scrolling action is what i am looking for.
