Glad you like it.
About the short URL hack published before mine, in fact you know, this hack is really not mature enough and not well-coded. I have nothing about its author, and I'm sorry to say that ... but for a lot of reasons I will not explain here to avoid off-topic, this is not a good hack, mine works better, really.
If you want, you can start a new forum topic about that and I will follow you to explain this to everybody.
I would like a lot to see my code integrated into XOOPS core, and frxoops.org webmasters are already really enthousiastic about it. Because of many reasons, XOOPS URLs are not bot-friendly at all, contrary to the words of some XOOPS team members.

you can easily change all parameters to made new scroll direction and speed. The Little javascript included in the tag is my personal add but it's not obligatory, it's only to be more user-friendly by stopping the scroll when mouse is over it.
