But as far as I can tell pbwiki blocks such content, so no matter what I do I won't be able to get it working. I tried several things on a test page. They were code snips I got from the web, but to none worked.

That's an interesting idea. But I'd have to learn how to do it. I'll see how much time I have. The group has decided that we're going public on Monday morning, so we're all finishing our final edits and stuff. The marquee is optional at this point. Of course, we can also add it later too.

I did finally manage to create an object using the pbwiki tools that does what I want. You can see it on our test page:

It works fine on the regular pages, but when I put it on the sidebar it does not appear. Of course, the sidebar is the only logical place to put it. :(
