This component inserts a Java applet running the text.

You should have an active Page Editor window. The running text will be inserted at the cursor position.

This component uses the resource files which are inserted in the folder named RunText incorporated in a folder that is set as default for dynamic pages and CGIs. It is the CGI-BIN folder by default. Be sure to not delete these files by accident.

You can change the size of the component by resizing the applet icon in the page.

The advanced users can modify the properties of the running text by double-clicking the applet icon in the page.
In the Java Applet Properties dialog box, change the values of the following parameters.

The bgcolor, messagecolor, bordercolor parameters define the background, text, border colors.
They are set in the RGB hexidecimal format. For example, #000000 is for black, #FFFF00 - yellow, #FFFFFF is for white. The first two digits describe the red component of the color, the second two - the green, and the last two - the blue components. The greater the value of each component is, the more of it will be presented in the result color.
For the messagecolor and bordercolor parameters, you can set them to -1, to have the current colors.

The font parameter defines the font of the text.

The fontstyle parameter defines a style of the text, where 0 stands for Regular, 1 for Bold, 2 for Italic, 3 for Bold Italic.

The speed parameter defines a speed of scrolling the text (in pixels per second).
