   I have inherited a site http://www.thecng.com and can't chnage the scrolling text underneath the news bar link. It's not a widget or a plugin. Anyone know where I might find it in the code or template?

   Hi rbcyber,

   If you view your source you'll see this bit of code:

   <marquee style="font-family: arial; font-size: 11pt; color:#000000;" width="175" scrolldelay="175">The C/N Group announces partnership with Florida Surgery Center</marquee>

   That's the code that creates the scrolling text. The previous designer may have customized the theme to pull that code into the sidebar or it might be in a widget.

   Just a note: I would really recommend removing the scrolling text all together as it's hard to read and is deprecated:

   Hope this helps!

   Thank you ChistiNi...

   It is a customized theme and for the life of me I could not find the right code to change anywhere. I don't like scrolling text either.. However the client insists..I will give it a go..Thanx.
