Make text and pictures move

We're going to use the <marquee> tag to make writing and pictures move like this:
Help! The ship's chasing me...

1. put some text and a picture you want to move in the code

   Help! The ship's chasing me...
   <img src="images/vikship.gif" />
   

2. add this round the text and picture to move:

   <marquee scrollamount="10"
   direction="left"
   behavior="scroll">
   Help! The ship's chasing me...
   <img src="images/vikship.gif" />
   </marquee>
   		

   
   
   • the scrollamount makes the movement slower (="1") or faster (="100" or more)
   • the direction makes it go up, down, left or right
   • the behavior makes the movement go:
     • in one direction then stop (="slide")
     • in one direction then start again (="scroll")
     • in both directions continuously (="alternate")
3. save the code and open the page in a browser
   you'll see this:
   
   Help! The ship's chasing me...
