Scrolltext? Cellbroadcast?

[Double.D]

Hey Everybody I'm a First time viewer, long time poster!, or is it the other way around. Anyways, I'm just starting to get the hang of making my own homescreens with XML (well, actually it's looking through my Q and copy and pasting something I think is cool) and well I came across this in my searching....

<plugin clsid="{4e822425-a00f-497c-80ff-1c554665a369}" name="cooltext" height="25">
<scrolltext textsource="cellbroadcast"/>
<background>
<format state="selected" bgcolor="COLOR_HOMEHIGHLIGHT"/>
</background>
</plugin>


What is this? I've never seen anything like this on my phone, or ever seen it activated or do anything special. Anyone know what this is? I'd really like to see what it does....or doesn't do....Thanks!

Read the "Customizing the Microsoft Smartphone 2002 Home Screen" MSDN article, specifically Appendix B: Plug-In Reference.

Only if you're a woman of legal age.
