Hi all,
I have to make a downloadable application which the user can download from a site. This application is aiming at providing certain services to the users like stock tickers etc on their desktops, the user interface has to be really good and not a traditional window, it should be of any shape eg a tv set in which this ticker would run..this ticker should be able to scroll without flickers and should be refreshed on each iteration. the data will be fetched from the webserver, it should also have the funtionalities like, the ticker should stop rolling on mouse overs, should be able to control the speed of the ticker, the text scrolling on the ticker should accept HTML tags, eg it could be hyperlinks on which if u click then it should take to the site....etc
Can someone please help me in how should i go about it and would
java be an answer to my problem coz visual interface is of key importance here..
thanx
