Hi,
Using Marquee element alone will give no control over the moving text and
will not confer to 2.2.2 SC.
Is there a way where we can still use marquee while meeting the SC or we
should go with alternatives only?
TIA,
Vaibhav

Isn't it totally obsolete ?

Sadly, it's still supported in modern browsers. But seriously, if you're
doing web development today and still using <marquee>, you probably have
bigger problems than just WCAG 2.2.2 ...

Yes, <marquee> is deprecated in html5. However, if there's a reason you
want to use it, the stop() method works on the marquee to stop the
animation.
