Ok so what does this thing do? Simply it can display 3 sentences ascending after one another. Images can be used too! Please check the demo for a clearer view. You can put here your personal ads and different headlines.
1. Ok so the original script has only two types of content, a short phrase and a long one that has a title. I inserted an option for image too in case you like it. Now, go to <head>, again, please read my article on how to edit the <head>. Once you found, just paste below it the following code:
<style type="text/css">
/*Example CSS for the two demo scrollers*/
#pscroller1{
width: 200px;

}
#pscroller2{

#pscroller2 a{

You can modify each box separated with tags #pscroller1,#pscroller2 and #pscroller3. The last one which is #pscroller3, thats the image part where in you make sure to follow the image dimension to fit in the box. For texts, you should also adjust their box sizes depending on how long your text will be.
The content of each box can be configured on lines starting with var pausecontent, var pausecontent2 and var pausecontent3 which corresponds to the modification of their boxes. They are numbered so you can identify which of them are partners. you can insert here your texts, links and images sources. After editing save it.
2. So assuming you're done, now you can activate the effect on a page by simply dragging an "embed code" and paste the following:
<script type="text/javascript">
//new pausescroller(name_of_message_array, CSS_ID, CSS_classname, pause_in_miliseconds)
new pausescroller(pausecontent, "pscroller1", "someclass", 3000)
document.write("<br />")
new pausescroller(pausecontent2, "pscroller2", "someclass", 2000)
document.write("<br />")
new pausescroller(pausecontent3, "pscroller3", "someclass", 2000)
</script>
//new pausescroller(name_of_message_array, CSS_ID, CSS_classname, pause_in_miliseconds)
new pausescroller(pausecontent, "pscroller1", "someclass", 3000)
document.write("<br />")
new pausescroller(pausecontent2, "pscroller2", "someclass", 2000)
document.write("<br />")
new pausescroller(pausecontent3, "pscroller3", "someclass", 2000)
</script>
There are 4 elements required to show the real effect. Again they are numbered meaning they correspond to the number you input in your CSS in the <head>. The numerical represents the pausing of a sentence or image in milliseconds which is basically, the longer the text the longer the pausing. The code above gives you the 3 examples in the demo so if you need only 1 type just remove any of the short tags separated with the ("<br/>"). Remember pscroller1 for long paragraphs, pscroller2 for short sentences and pscroller3 for images.
3. Now publish your site to see the effects, you won't see it while editing. If you didn't come out with the same result I made, don't hesitate to ask questions.
