as said by Mike Choy we have much better CSS alternatives now, and as stressed by Jan Markus , marquee should not be used coz it was misused badly to grab attention and we still have those painful moving texts on few old government and banking sites. for more info https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marquee_element

Hi Mirul marquee has been replaced with the much more powerful CSS animations

Black Rose there are many ways to do so using css animation, Here a marquee class is used instead of marquee tag. https://code.sololearn.com/Wj4YmESQlX2i/?ref=app

Black Rose Use what Morpheus said, but basically you have to use 25 lines of CSS when you could make the same exact thing happen in 1 line in HTML. 😢
