stop news ticker on mouse over

[clausowitz]

Hi All,

 

I use  some code that I found on-line to display a scrolling text.

I am a JavaScript dummy but my question is can someone show me how to stop the scrolling on mouse over.

 

$(function()

{

var ticker = function()

{

setTimeout(function(){

$('#ticker li:first').animate( {marginTop: '-120px'}, 800, function()

{

$(this).detach().appendTo('ul#ticker').removeAttr('style');

});

ticker();

}, 4000);

};

ticker();

});

jQuery has a .stop() method you an use you stop animations for a given selector. Have a play around and see what you can do...
