    	<script type="text/javascript">
    
    // ***********************************************
    var loop = false;
    var increment = 1;
    var scrollTop = 0;
    
    function startLoop(change) {
    	increment = change;
    	loop = true;
    	loopMe();
    }
    
    function endLoop() {
    	loop = false;
    }
    
    function loopMe() {
    	if (!loop) { return; }
    	scrollTop += increment;
    	document.title = scrollTop;
    	setTimeout(loopMe, 100);
    }
    
    // ***********************************************
    
    	</script>
    </head>
    <body>
    
    <a onmousedown="startLoop(1);" onmouseup="endLoop();">Increase</a><br />
    <a onmousedown="startLoop(-1);" onmouseup="endLoop();">Decrease</a>
    
    </body>
    </html>
    To make this work on any element, eg. an "<img .. />" element, you just have to copy the event code: `onmousedown="startLoop(1);" onmouseup="endLoop();"`

    Hope this helps
