  Hi! The <marquee> tag in HTML is not generally available; it isn’t on the list of tags shown in our Code guide.

  As noted in the Mozilla HTML reference, the marquee element is deprecated and it isn’t advised to be used:
  https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/marquee

  Would you like to share more about what you’re working on? We may be able to suggest alternatives that could be useful. For example while there is no ‘scrolling text’ option, there is indeed a Slideshow block for images with captions.
