    direction="up" loop="true" width="225" height="300" > <center>
    <font color="#ffffff" size="+1"><strong> THIS
    IS A COOL WAY<br> TO MAKE YOUR TEXT<br> SCROLL UPWARDS<br> <br>
    IT IS EASY AND FAST LOADING </strong></font> </center> </marquee></div>

    <marquee onmouseover="this.stop();" onmouseout="this.start();">
    my text here
    </marquee>

    Or like this <marquee onmouseover="this.setAttribute('scrollamount', 0, 0);" onmouseout="this.setAttribute('scrollamount', 6, 0);">
    my text here
    </marquee>

    Or for yours I went ahead and added it and testd it and it works :)
    <div
    align="center"> <marquee bgcolor="#000080" scrollamount="2"
    direction="up" loop="true" width="225" height="300" onmouseover="this.setAttribute('scrollamount', 0, 0);" onmouseout="this.setAttribute('scrollamount', 6, 0);" > <center>
    <font color="#ffffff" size="+1"><strong> THIS
    IS A COOL WAY<br> TO MAKE YOUR TEXT<br> SCROLL UPWARDS<br> <br>
    IT IS EASY AND FAST LOADING </strong></font> </center> </marquee></div>

    Nice code?!! Almost ALL of that markup was deprecated in 1999! And the marquee tag has NEVER been a part of the HTML spec! But I would suspect most DP'ers think it's both new and modern.

    If you are going to use MARQUEE, you might as well add BLINK to the code.
