I'm displaying a list with three entries. Those entries come from MySQL database. With Ajax, the database is checked every five seconds for new entries. The display of the new items works fine, but I would like to scroll in a new item and scroll out the oldest one.

eg:

item 3

item 2

item 1

then there is a new item.

item 4

item 3

item 2

item 4 should scroll in from the top and item 1 should disappear. i found a good tutorial, but this one doesn't work with a database and I don't know how to implement it. I hope someone can help me out a little.

Here is the tutorial:  http://www.fiveminuteargument.com/blog/scrolling-list

Thank you very much!
