Marquee that slows/pause on mouse over - Simple image filmstrip/scroller

Lets see how we can create a simple image filmstrip or scroller using HTML Marquee tags.

<marquee  onMouseover="this.scrollAmount=1" onMouseout="this.scrollAmount=4">
Scrolling text here. Scrolling text/images goes here
</marquee>

If you want to retrieve images dynamically using PHP here is the logic,

<marquee  onMouseover="this.scrollAmount=3" onMouseout="this.scrollAmount=6">
<?php
//database connection
//retrive image names from database
//get full image path
?>
<img src="<?php echo $image_path; ?>" />
</marquee>
