Spritle Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 I'm new to PHP, I haven't done a whole lot with it except for an email form, and now I need to code a form to update a news ticker on the side of the page so it can be updated by someone with no HTML/CSS knowledge. I know how to pull all of the info off the form and format it for HTML, but I don't know what to do with it from there. I'm not sure weather to have it go to a database or just a separate text file, which I know NOTHING about. Then have the ticker pull info from that text file or database. The ticker wouldn't need to hold more than 5 articles, it's not going to link to a real article, just a couple lines to tell people what's going on. It doesn't need to scroll or anything fancy. Just be able to Or if there's already a program/script that does this for me, that'd be great too. Thanks in advance!

Spritle Posted May 20, 2009 Author Share Posted May 20, 2009 Well I figured it out for the most part without anyone replying to my post. Just have another question someone might be able to answer, i have the results going inside a table, but they wont stay within the table's boundaries, or wrap at the boundary. Anyone give me any insight into this? Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/158312-solved-website-news-ticker/#findComment-838285 Share on other sites More sharing options...
