</div>

eventually the text will be imported from a database so it will be dynamic but basically i want to have a symbol that will contain the imported text that scrolls across the screen like a movie marquee

simple enough

but, i also want the symbol to scale. as the text goes from right to left across the marquee i want it to scale from smaller to larger so that the marquee appears in perspective

your help is greatly appreciated  
thanks
