WCSS Tutorial: -wap-marquee-dir WAP CSS Property - Control Direction of Marquee Animations

19.2. Controlling the Direction of Marquee Animations (-wap-marquee-dir Property)

The -wap-marquee-dir property is used to specify the direction of a marquee animation. Two values are available for this property: ltr (left to right) and rtl (right to left). The default value of this WCSS property is "rtl".

The following XHTML MP/WCSS example demonstrates the effect of "-wap-marquee-dir: ltr" and "-wap-marquee-dir: rtl" in some mobile phone browsers.
