This code will create a news ticker-like scroll effect by using CSS animations.
The JavaScript portion is optional, but it allows you to dynamically change the sentences displayed in the ticker.
The code will rotate the sentences every 25 seconds
To create a code that displays three text sentences from right to left continuously, similar to a news ticker, you can use HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. HTML will provide the structure of the webpage, CSS will be used to style the elements, and JavaScript will handle the animation and movement of the text. By using CSS animations or JavaScript libraries such as jQuery, you can apply the necessary transitions and effects to make the text move smoothly from right to left. Additionally, you can use JavaScript to ensure that the text keeps on looping without any pauses or stops. By combining these three technologies, you can create an engaging and dynamic news ticker-like display on your webpage.
Here’s an example code that displays three text sentences from right to left continuously, similar to a news ticker:
HTML
// HTML Structure
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>News Ticker</title>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="styles.css">
</head>
<body>
<div class="container">
<div class="news-ticker">
<div id="ticker-container">
<p class="ticker-item">First sentence goes here</p>
<p class="ticker-item">Second sentence goes here</p>
<p class="ticker-item">Third sentence goes here</p>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<script src="script.js"></script>
</body>
</html>CSS
// CSS Styles
.container {
width: 100%;
height: 50px;
background-color: #000;
overflow: hidden;
}
.news-ticker {
display: flex;
animation: tickerAnimation 25s linear infinite;
}
@keyframes tickerAnimation {
0% {
-webkit-transform: translateX(100%);
transform: translateX(100%);
}
100% {
-webkit-transform: translateX(-100%);
transform: translateX(-100%);
}
}
.ticker-item {
color: #fff;
font-size: 20px;
line-height: 50px;
padding-right: 10px;
white-space: nowrap;
}JavaScript
// Optional: To change the sentences dynamically
const sentences = [
"First sentence goes here",
"Second sentence goes here",
"Third sentence goes here"
];
const tickerContainer = document.getElementById("ticker-container");
let sentenceIndex = 0;
function changeTickerText() {
tickerContainer.children[sentenceIndex].innerHTML = sentences[sentenceIndex];
sentenceIndex = (sentenceIndex + 1) % sentences.length;
}
setInterval(changeTickerText, 5000); // Update every 5 secondsExplanation:
1. The HTML code sets up the structure of the document with a container, a news ticker area, and three text sentences in `p` tags within a `div` with the `”ticker-container”` id.
2. The CSS styles define the appearance, animation, and positioning for the news ticker using flexbox and translateX.
3. The JavaScript code allows for dynamic changes to the sentences displayed in the ticker. It fetches the `div` with the `”ticker-container”` id and selects the `p` tags within it. The `changeTickerText` function updates the text content of the sentences using the predefined `sentences` array. The `setInterval` method is used to call the `changeTickerText` function every 5 seconds (you can adjust the value as per your requirement).
Feel free to customize the CSS styles, sentence array, and animation duration to match your desired aesthetics and functionality.
