Do you mean so it scrolls down your site in a certain speed?

Put this in your CSS file:#scrolling_text { display: none; }

Do you want something like this - http://www.iribbit.net/i/_files/javascript-snippets.htm. the slidinig navigation one??If yes then here is the code -

<!--// author: prateek// description: Navigation effect that slides the link from left to right a certain amount of pixels.// necessary mods: nonefunction shiftMe(object, direction, pixels){	if (pixels==0)return;	var obj = document.getElementById(object);	if (obj.style.marginLeft=="") obj.style.marginLeft="0px";	var marginLeftVal=obj.style.marginLeft;	var marginLeftInt=new Array();	marginLeftInt=marginLeftVal.split('p');	if (direction=="r")	marginLeftInt[0]--;	if (direction=="l")	marginLeftInt[0]++;	pixels--;	obj.style.marginLeft=marginLeftInt[0]+"px";	timer=setTimeout('shiftMe("'+object+'","'+direction+'",'+pixels+')',1);}-->

<div id="main"><a href="google.com" id="h2" onmouseover="shiftMe('h2','r',7)" onmouseout="shiftMe('h2','l',7)">Google</a><br><a href="google.com" id="h3" onmouseover="shiftMe('h3','r',7)" onmouseout="shiftMe('h3','l',7)">Google</a><br></div>

Both speed, and how. Not on mouseover.

The W3C validator rejects the <marquee> tag and says that it can be replaced using CSS. I don't quite understand how you can make text scroll left-right with CSS. Is it possible?

you will need javascript or flash for sliding text.depends on how much text, where its going etc..If its only a small bit, then javascript is your choice.

Not with CSS alone, you need a combo of CSS and Javascript. Check out dynamicdrive.com, they have a few different scripts to choose from for sliding text.
