Vertical Scrolling text
in Getting Started

I am a rank newbie to programming beyond basic shell scripting, so if I ask what appear to be stupid questions, please forgive me.
I'm trying to create a page that will have several - probably a dozen - bullet points that are on a slow vertical scroll. Ideally the page viewers (consumers of the data) would be able to click on an item and drag the scroll - when I see an interesting item I could click and hold on it to stop the scrolling/drag it to move the list either up or down, then release it and the scrolling resumes. The bullet points would need to be easily added, removed, and modified - perhaps it could pull the bullet points from a text file?
I was pointed to JQuery as a likely candidate for enabling me to do this.
I searched the forum, and didn't come across anything like what I'm trying to do.
I have the jquery file saved in a test directory, and have a test environment that I can muck with.
thanks for any help!
