Hi
I am new to Drupal and want a marquee block in my Drupal 7 website. I have downloaded and installed the module from https://drupal.org/project/marquee_block, but i don't know how to use it. Any help in this context will be appreciated. Please help.

Thanks

Presume you have installed the marquee block module.

Click “ Structure“ on the admin menu then click Block.

You should see the “Scrolling Marquee” under the “Disabled” section, move that to “Sidebar second” and hit “Save blocks”

Click “Configure” link next to “Scrolling Marquee” Just add Block title and Scrolling Message optionally change the Scroll Speed, Scroll Direction and Scroll Behavior then “Save block”

Go back to you home page and you should see Scrolling Marquee should be working.

Good luck.

hii,
you don't need to install marquee block.
go to "admin/structure/block" and click "Add Block".
you write your block title and block description.
In block body you write <marquee>xyz</marquee> and select text format "Full HTML" .
In region setting you decide where it shows.
And Save Block.
:)

You can make a pretty good marquee using https://www.drupal.org/project/animate_css

You just need to create block with marquee text. You can do it using html tags but CSS is preferred because that marquee tag is not supported by few browser as it is non standard html tag. Refer this link (Marquees in HTML) to see how it works in plain html. Once you understand how it works you can easily embed it in your block.
