Hi there good Sir,
Excuse this humble learner for taking a ride on your post.
I v try writing an html code on it with no success. It appear that the motd only link you to external site. If there another way doing this i also interested to know. Doesn't matter in html, js or php.

Anyone? this is really bothersome I and some others really want to know how this is done for L4D2.

I never did a MOTD but in HTML you can play with CSS for the scrolling attribute.

Here is a link for more info.

I don't know if javascript runs well on MOTD for L4D2, but if the CSS don't work, maybe you have to hack with js

object.style.overflow="scroll" kinda works it adds the scroll wheel but when i add more lines it doesnt expand the scroll wheel it just adds it, more ideas would be nice. especially if they can find 1 for l4d2

i had object.style.overflow="scroll" at the bottom of my motd it added in the scroll wheel but when i add more words it doesnt work i honestly dont know how the code for this is suppose to work as there was no instructions outside of that code itself.
