Hi,
Although I've been tinkering with Silverstripe for the last 2 years I never quite got it, if you know what I mean. Anyway I've been asked to develop a site that requires a News Ticker scrolling feed showing special offer type information on one or several pages.
I search through the forums and found http://www.silverstripe.org/general-questions/show/5810 I think that's what I need.
Re-read the how tutorials and a few forum posts and got the ticker to work - well sort of. I understand so much more.
The javascript works fine standalone on simple html pages using IE FF & Chrome, but when I use it in Sliverstripe only Chrome renders it correctely and I get a scrolling feed, Firefox and IE just display the text no scroll.
I've tried to debug using firebug and IE but their are no errors in the javascript so I am guessing that it's something to do with SS and how it renders pages.
I've followed all the reconmendations in the forums and tutorials, created a new field on the content tab populated this and this works, added a function to the Page_Controller class that requires Requirements::javascript.
I am at a total loss what to do to get this to work in IE and FF.
