[jQuery] Noob alert - can you help clean up my ticker?

2009-03-02 Thread w33bs...@googlemail.com

Just trying out Jquery for the first time today and I've come up with
a ticker for a projectI'm working on. The problem I have is that I
find it a clumsy solution for such an elegant framework. Any help
tidying up would be greatly appreceiated!

I don't want to post a load of code here so I'll just link to it:

I was thinking of using JQuery UI core to build a class to handle
this...would this be the way to go?

If anyone can help it would be greatly appreciated,

Thanks for the advice and thanks for the linksi'd looked at the
hacking at 0300 tutorial yesterday but was a bit fried to take it in.
anyway, today I decided to give it another go and have come up with
the following. I think it is slightly more 'elegant' but who knows!?

Demo:

Not sure where to take this now...any suggestions welcome :)
