The Marquee control is a special control that allows you to easily animate any web page. The Marquee control takes another HTML document as input and scrolls it inside the current document. This adds a "grand marquee" look to the page. Listing 4-7 shows two HTML documents. The first HTML document shows the implementation of the Marquee control and the reference to the HTML page to be scrolled. The second HTML document shows the actual code for the page to be scrolled. Figure 4-15 shows a sample of the output.
