The Scroll Box, below, is a scrollable content box and is useful in a pre-existing site where there are inflexible space constraints and you need to make an important announcement which may be lengthy.
In a new site it will display content in a confined area. Users can then view the entire content via the automatic scroll up/down functionality. An interesting way to decorate the script is with a background image.
