Hi,

I'm new on here, so if I'm in the wrong section I apologise :oops:

I'm wondering if anyone on here knows where I can get a rotating image banner script, with hyperlinking function that can be managed externally, so it can be on every page in my site, yet I only have to change one set of script?

Thanks in advance!

Tom

Use an externally linked javascript ad rotation banner file. Link to it in your meta tags on each page. Then to update just update the one javascript file.

Google search: "ad rotation" + javascript

I'm guessing that you'd need a javascript for this, or pehaps a php script.

Code: [ Select ]
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
    <title>Random Image</title>
    <script language="Javascript" type="text/javascript">
    <!-- Hide script from old browsers

    myPix = new Array("images/lion.jpg","images/tiger.jpg","images/bear.jpg")
    imgCt = myPix.length

    function choosePic() {
        if (document.images) {
            randomNum = Math.floor((Math.random() * imgCt))
            document.myPicture.src = myPix[randomNum]
        }
    }

    // End hiding script from old browsers -->
    </script>    
</head>
<body bgcolor="#FFFFFF" onload="choosePic()">
<img src="images/spacer.gif" width="305" height="312" name="myPicture" alt="some image" />
</body>
</html>
  1. <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN">
  2. <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
  3. <head>
  4.     <title>Random Image</title>
  5.     <script language="Javascript" type="text/javascript">
  6.     <!-- Hide script from old browsers
  8.     myPix = new Array("images/lion.jpg","images/tiger.jpg","images/bear.jpg")
  9.     imgCt = myPix.length
  11.     function choosePic() {
  12.         if (document.images) {
  13.             randomNum = Math.floor((Math.random() * imgCt))
  14.             document.myPicture.src = myPix[randomNum]
  15.         }
  16.     }
  18.     // End hiding script from old browsers -->
  19.     </script>    
  20. </head>
  21. <body bgcolor="#FFFFFF" onload="choosePic()">
  22. <img src="images/spacer.gif" width="305" height="312" name="myPicture" alt="some image" />
  23. </body>
  24. </html>


Is a quick script that I found (I'm crap at javascript). It may help.

Headstash, I was just going to move this topic to Programing/Scripting but after a quick Ozzu search.... I found this topic which yours complements :) , That is why it has been merged.

Archaic Sage, Please remember to use either
Code: [ Select ]

Or
PHP Code: [ Select ]
 
tags when posting code. I've fixed your original post.

//Merged
Strong with this one, the sudo is.
