Really there aren't any issues with Javascript and there are more than a few ways you could present the data utilizing different javascript techniques. Flash is a pretty simplistic and very versatile solution also. I think it depends on 1) whether it's important that the news scroller be "accessible" by search engines (in which case it'd be very important to NOT use flash) and/or 2) whether you mind the possibility of your users needing to download the flash plugin for their browser.

While there are many options, Java, Flash, DHTML, open to me to fulfil the scroller request I just wondered what anyone felt was the most standards compatible solution?
