I have the following HTML Pass-Thru code on a Notes page. How can I make the content text that displays when ran dynamic so it is fed from a lookup or something?
htmltest.htmlThis will display weekly event information
Information of scheduled visits,
Special Events, etc.

Again, a Form is the better option. Your marquee content can be a computed field.
Please note that your page will be broken as it now sits, since all of your markup will live inside a tag in the of the page that Domino will generate. To fix that, go to the Advanced tab of the Form properties (when you’ve created a Form to replace the Page) and set the web content type to HTML.
That will cause another little problem – you can’t open a Form that’s set to “treat as HTML” as a Form. To get around that, go to the Other section in the design outline and create a Navigator. Leave it blank (and use the comments to explain that it is intentionally blank), but give it the name you would like your “page” to have, then save the blank Navigator.
Rename the Form to $$NavigatorTemplate for . In order to display the Form on the web, you would actually open the Navigator – the template form will be opened, and since it doesn’t have the Navigator embedded, the form will open as you designed it.
The Navigator is just a URL-forcing element in this case.

Are you simply wanting to provide dynamic content to the data within the {marquee} {/marquee} tags?
Maybe I’m missing something but I’d suggest just putting some Computed Text in between the {marquee} {/marquee} tags. That computed text could be anything you wanted it to be, dblookup/dbcolumn to some data, whatever.

Be aware, though, that computed text is VERY limited in length compared to a computed text field. Oh, and that is a non-standard (IE-only) tag that is deprecated and may not work even in newer versions of Internet Explorer.
