Our scrolling algorithm is consistent between the two browsers and is given here again for sake of completion. The following diagram explains this algorithm.

A cycle begins when the page's top line starts scrolling out of the box, and ends when the page's bottom line scrolls out. During the first cycle, the firstPage is in the upperPage position, while the secondPage is in the lowerPage position. They switch positions on the second cycle: the secondPage is in the upperPage position, while the firstPage is in the lowerPage position. The canvas is the window through which the scrolling text is shown. Here is the diagram:
