Show Value Page item

Question

I'm using the following code for my news ticker. I want to display the value of page item :P18_TEKST. But the page shows the text :P18_TEKST. How do i get the value of the page item in my ticker. See the code below
It's about the row: var marqueecontent='<nobr><font face="Arial"><b>:P18_TEKST<b/></font></nobr>'
<script language="JavaScript1.2">
//Specify the marquee's width (in pixels)
var marqueewidth="350px"
//Specify the marquee's height
var marqueeheight="20px"
//Specify the marquee's marquee speed (larger is faster 1-10)
var marqueespeed=2
//configure background color:
var marqueebgcolor="#ededd6"
//Pause marquee onMousever (0=no. 1=yes)?
var pauseit=1
//Specify the marquee's content (don't delete <nobr> tag)
//Keep all content on ONE line, and backslash any single quotations (ie: that\'s great):
//var marqueecontent='<nobr><font face="Arial"><b>This is where my text goes.<b/></font></nobr>'
var marqueecontent='<nobr><font face="Arial"><b>:P18_TEKST<b/></font></nobr>'
marqueespeed=(document.all)? marqueespeed : Math.max(1, marqueespeed-1) //slow speed down by 1 for NS
var copyspeed=marqueespeed
var pausespeed=(pauseit==0)? copyspeed: 0
var iedom=document.all||document.getElementById
if (iedom)
document.write('<span id="temp" style="visibility:hidden;position:absolute;top:-100px;left:-9000px">'+marqueecontent+'</span>')
var actualwidth=''
var cross_marquee, ns_marquee
function populate(){
if (iedom){
cross_marquee=document.getElementById? document.getElementById("iemarquee") : document.all.iemarquee
cross_marquee.style.left=parseInt(marqueewidth)+8+"px"
cross_marquee.innerHTML=marqueecontent
actualwidth=document.all? temp.offsetWidth : document.getElementById("temp").offsetWidth
else if (document.layers){
ns_marquee=document.ns_marquee.document.ns_marquee2
ns_marquee.left=parseInt(marqueewidth)+8
ns_marquee.document.write(marqueecontent)
ns_marquee.document.close()
actualwidth=ns_marquee.document.width
lefttime=setInterval("scrollmarquee()",20)
window.onload=populate
function scrollmarquee(){
if (iedom){
if (parseInt(cross_marquee.style.left)>(actualwidth*(-1)+8))
cross_marquee.style.left=parseInt(cross_marquee.style.left)-copyspeed+"px"
else
cross_marquee.style.left=parseInt(marqueewidth)+8+"px"
else if (document.layers){
if (ns_marquee.left>(actualwidth*(-1)+8))
ns_marquee.left-=copyspeed
else
ns_marquee.left=parseInt(marqueewidth)+8
if (iedom||document.layers){
with (document){
document.write('<table border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"><td>')
if (iedom){
write('<div style="position:relative;width:'+marqueewidth+';height:'+marqueeheight+';overflow:hidden">')
write('<div style="position:absolute;width:'+marqueewidth+';height:'+marqueeheight+';background-color:'+marqueebgcolor+'" onMouseover="copyspeed=pausespeed" onMouseout="copyspeed=marqueespeed">')
write('<div id="iemarquee" style="position:absolute;left:0px;top:0px"></div>')
write('</div></div>')
else if (document.layers){
write('<ilayer width='+marqueewidth+' height='+marqueeheight+' name="ns_marquee" bgColor='+marqueebgcolor+'>')
write('<layer name="ns_marquee2" left=0 top=0 onMouseover="copyspeed=pausespeed" onMouseout="copyspeed=marqueespeed"></layer>')
write('</ilayer>')
document.write('</td></table>')

Hi
Try changing this...
var marqueecontent='<nobr><font face="Arial"><b>:P18_TEKST<b/></font></nobr>'To this...
var marqueecontent='<nobr><font face="Arial"><b>' + document.getElementById('P18_TEKST').value + '<b/></font></nobr>'(not tested but you get the idea.)
Cheers
Ben
