Scroller

Putting multiple scrollers on page

[jnscollier]

I am attempting to put this scroller i found at dynamicdrive.com on my index.php page. I want to put 3 of them on my page, all exactly alike just with different data.... but when i copy and paste this code three times, only the first one shows up and the other two dont. Can someone please help me with this? Thanks. - Sammy

I know its pretty, but it is also pretty pointless. Search engines won't love you anymore for using javascript to display content. Infact, they will love you less.
Sorry for not helping, but in some strange way. maybe I just did.
