I am using the DHTML script that allows an external html file to act as the text for a standard marquee.

Something has occured to where it does not work on ALL computers viewing it...

I see it working on my laptop, but not on the desktop. The desktop, if I browes my network to the actual htm document it works, but once its published it does NOT work.

It seems 50% of the people can see it scroll. Now if I just put text in the marquee normally it works, but its as if this DHTML script is having issues...

can anyone explain why it works on SOME computers?

*UPDATE*

Ok it has to be something with the webserver, as I copied the files to our corporate web servers as opposed to my personal hosting service server and they work fine. I still dont know why some computer can connect to the same web server and have it work.

Any ideas?

Do you really need a marquee? Many surfers will dislike them.
