This script is a simple modification of <a href="link_hint_scroller.htm" class="link">Link Hint Scroller</a>. The only difference here is that the hint will scroll diagonally.<br><br>
When you move your mouse over the above link a hint or something about the link
will appear below the link in a diagonally scrolling fashion. When you move your mouseout the scrolling will stop.
<br><br>To use this Javascript,view the source of this document. Firstly you must copy the script
and place it in the head section. Then you must copy the <DIV> section and place it wherever you want it in the body. All the required section are marked by the comments <!--BEGIN REQUIRED--> and <!--END REQUIRED-->
<br><br>
<font face="courier">scroll_height</font> : Scroll height variable (150 here)<br>
<font face="courier">time_length</font> : Speed of scroll (50 here, meaning after 50 milliseconds the hint will change position by 1 pixel i.e a speed of 20 pixels/second)<br>
<font face="courier">begin_pos</font> : Beginning position of hint (20 here)
