• For the portion of the script that needs to be in the HEAD section, you'll need to manually edit the header.tpl template.
  NOTE: Do not use Tiki's internal template editor — it will strip out all of the SCRIPT elements.

• For the portion the actual page, you'll need to use the JS plugin:
  
  Copy to clipboard

  {JS()}
  //new rsspausescroller(RSS_id, divId, divClass, delay, linktarget, optionalswitch)
  //1) RSS_id: "Array key of RSS feed in scrollerbridge.php script"
  //2) divId: "ID of DIV to display ticker in. DIV is dynamically created"
  //3) divClass: "Class name of this ticker, for styling purposes"
  //4) delay: delay between message change, in milliseconds
  //5) linktarget: Target of links inside RSS feed. Set to "" for current page.
  //6) optionalswitch: "optional arbitrary" string to create additional logic for formatrssmessage() to use.
  //   By default, optionalswitch supports "date", or "date+description" to also show these parts of a RSS feed.
  
  new rsspausescroller("cnn", "pscroller1", "rssclass", 3000, "_new")
  
  document.write("") //add a divider for demo
  
  new rsspausescroller("dynamicdrive", "pscroller2", "rssclass", 3000, "", "date+description")
  {JS}

HTH,
