Hi Dan,

    I have written some Java code that scrolls text as you refer to and it
works fine on both Netscape and Internet Explorer. Since you only are showing
your run method I am making the assumption that you have overriden the update
method. However, you might be leaving out the invoking of the paint method
from the update method.

e.g.

repaint()-> schedules update() -> invokes paint()

run()
   while()
   {
     repaint();
   }

update(Graphics g)
{
 // Do your stuff and then...
 paint();
}

    Hope this is helpful.

    Sincerely,
      Rob
