Some content of a website is like an alert or notification/information that has to be shown to each and every person who is using the website. It has to be placed at some point where everyone can see it.
In this article, we will learn how to create moving content on your website using HTML <marquee> tag. The <marquee> tag in HTML is used to create scrolling text or images on a webpage. It scrolls either from horizontally left to right or right to left, vertically from top to bottom or bottom to top.
Syntax:
<marquee> Contents... </marquee>
Approach:
- Create a simple HTML file in any text editor.
- Add the text you want to move inside the <marquee> tag.

<!DOCTYPE html>
< html >
< body >
< h2 >Welcome To GFG</ h2 >

< marquee direction = "right"
behavior = "alternate"
