<SCRIPT>
<!–
function scrollit(seed) {
var m1 = “Hope you’ve enjoyed your stay here!”;
var m2 = ” JavaScript Kit. Your ultimate”;
var m3 = ” source for JavaScripts!”;
var m4 = “”;
var msg=m1+m2+m3+m4;
var out = ” “;
var c = 1;
if (seed > 100) {
seed–;
cmd=”scrollit(“+seed+”)”;
timerTwo=window.setTimeout(cmd,100);
}
else if (seed <= 100 && seed > 0) {
for (c=0 ; c < seed ; c++) {
out+=” “;
}
out+=msg;
seed–;
window.status=out;
cmd=”scrollit(“+seed+”)”;
timerTwo=window.setTimeout(cmd,100);
}
else if (seed <= 0) {
if (-seed < msg.length) {
out+=msg.substring(-seed,msg.length);
seed–;
window.status=out;
cmd=”scrollit(“+seed+”)”;
