Title: @1 Newscroller: Script installation
Steps of installing the script.
Installation (the script part)
• Open newscroller.cgi and check the first line to make sure that it is pointing to the Perl location.
• Modify the variables at the top part of the script.
• Create a sub-folder under the root directory called "newscroller" (www.yourdomain.com/newscroller) and chomod this folder to 777.
• Upload all *.htm, *.txt, *.js, *.cgi and all images files to this folder.
• Chmod all *.txt and *.js files to 777 and chmod *.cgi file to 755.
• View the sample news scroller by pointing to scroller.htm. If everything is installed correctly, you should be able to see a working demo page like this page.
• Run the newscroller.cgi script from your browser. Test the various admin modes.
• Once everything is working fine, you may then start to make adjustments such as placing the newscroller in another page (at another folder), deleting the existing news, adding new news etc.
Installation (the HTML page)
• Simply copy the codes and paste them into the HTML page at the location where you want the scrolling news to appear - it can be inside a table (in this case, between the <TD></TD> tags). Do not modify the codes except the relative location to the two Javascripts files.
