[Pro] Custom Scrolling Text Proble

Freeway
1

Hi.

I have been working on a site recently which features a scrolling text area on the home page. This features a custom scroll bar that I created using a link I found on the forum (can’t remember the link at the moment).

It has been working fine on my server but now that I have uploaded the site to my client’s server it no longer works.

I assume his hosting needs a feature turned on but I have no idea what to request.

Any ideas what is causing the problem?

Here is the site on my server (scrolling text works fine).

Here is the site on my client’s server (scrolling text no longer works)

Thanks in advance!

You appear to be missing the JavaScript file ‘dom-drag.js’;

Nice site by the way.

I can’t thank you enough - I was banging my head off the screen all day over that : )

I now vaguely remember having to manually upload the dom-drag.js file to my server weeks ago during testing.
Sure enough when I manually uploaded the file to the client’s server the scroller works!!

Remember that there is a page action called Upload Stuff that will do this for you - so you don’t have to remember to do it manually.

Of course - my topic should say Custom Scrolling Text Problem!

Thanks Dave, I’ll look into this.
Where are you based in Glasgow - do you have a web site?
