Help Finding a Solution please

Greetings:
I have been working on a scrolling weather application based on a PHP application I built some time back.
I tried to just use a <marquee></marquee> tag to keep it simple (KIS) but the data is way too much for that to work efficiently. It is apparent to me that I need to find another way to acomplish this task. The current solution, which is not the way to go is at radioteal.no-ip.com/miketest/weather_scroll_1.php
What would be ideal is if there is a PHP based solution to accomplish the scrolling and I would need help setting up the code. The JavaScript examples I have seen don't work for one reason or another after escaping (\) the single quotes so that they will work, I suppose that it may be the way I approach PHP in building that is the issue (I tend to echo all my HTML out in one echo'html code would be here'; block).
Any help getting this to work would be very much appreciated. We are dealing with a 4 or 5 line paragraph that we need to scroll and it either uses three lines in the marquee tag or is incomplete data...
Thanks again for any help!
Mike
