This is ultimately a client side issue, since it is the browser that has to
make the scrolling happen. I think your solution would probably end up being
Java, Javascript/DHTML or Flash, and there are probably packaged solutions
for each of these... Just a few days ago, a Flash-based headline viewer was
mentioned on http://www.scripting.com
