Please be aware that the marquee tag was never standard HTML and is deprecated. – Orbling Nov 19 '10 at 17:10

@Orbling - Marquee is not deprecated. It's impossible to deprecate something that wasn't once standard. – Alohci Nov 19 '10 at 19:33

@Alohci It's use is deprecated within the browsers that support it, the standard obviously does not deprecate it - as it is not part of the standard to begin with. – Orbling Nov 19 '10 at 19:34

`<marquee behavior=scroll direction="left" scrollamount="5">Your message here</marquee>`

scrollamount controls the speed of text: higher the value higher is the scrolling speed

we can control the scrolling speed by using the `scrollamount` attribute,

Example:

`<marquee scrollamount="30">scrolling fast</marquee> <marquee scrollamount="2">scrolling slow</marquee>`

note:if you specify the minimum number, the scrolling speed will be reduce vice versa

This attribute takes the time in milliseconds.

Delay : 100 Milliseconds

`<marquee scrolldelay="100">Scrolling text</marquee>`

Delay : 400 Milliseconds

`<marquee scrolldelay="400">Scrolling text</marquee>`

There isn't specifically an attribute to control that. Marquee isn't a highly reliable tag anyways. You may want to consider using jQuery and the .animate() function. If you are interested in pursuing that avenue and need code for it, just let me know.

He's right, technically: `scrolldelay` slows the entire animation, not specifically the delay between when the text scrolls off one edge and reappears on the other. See the examples on that very webpage. – Dan J Nov 19 '10 at 17:13

You can change the speed of marquee tag using scrollamount attribute.

It accepts integer values 6 being the default speed, so any value lower then 6 will slow down the marquee effect.

Example :

`<marquee scrollamount=4>Scrolling text</marquee>`

Marquee is really easy to use, but too blinking, even in low speed. What's good alternative to marquee? – newman May 07 '15 at 14:30

You can Change the speed by adding scrolldelay

`<marquee style="font-family: lato; color: #FFFFFF" bgcolor="#00224f" scrolldelay="400">Now the Speed is Delay to 400 Milliseconds</marquee>`

In Order to increase speed of your Marquee text you just need to add like this in your code below:

`<marquee scrollamount="Integer number">scrolling fast</marquee>`
