[TriLUG] javascript syntax

[William Sutton]

I spent a little time on this this afternoon.  If you 
document.write(eval(temp)) then things parse out as html...unfortunately 
you then lose the ability to dynamically update things.  It's been a while 
since I looked at these things (that is, randomized or sequential 
javascript marquees), but my recollection has been that I never found one 
I liked for various reasons and that Java applets always seemed to be the 
way to go....
