anything that can return the date, or time, or day (Javascript, ActionScript, etc.) could be used to base a change like that. How big is your pool of images going to be?

I know you're looking for a code snippet. sorry. I've been doing child care all day, and my brain is mush.

ask bigwebmaster about his rotator script. it does everything
you need and more. You set the images in a dir, specify the
amount of time you want it to display before changing, and
does so automatically. I've used it for years, I love it.

do it of you want. Just send him a PM.

I am sure bwm can get on top of deleting it if you pm him. But just for future referense phpBB is very secure and even logging in on public stations won't harm your account as long as you logout when you're finished!

here is the code i have right now. it isn't working even though i am pritty sure i followed the directions.


Code: [ Select ]
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">

<!-- You will need 31 images named 1.jpg through 31.jpg -->
<!--    // start of script
    // code by Joe Burns
    var dt = new Date();
    var hr = dt.getDate();
    var msg="<IMG SRC=image"+hr+".jpg>";
    document.write(msg);
<!-- end -->
</SCRIPT>
  1. <SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
  3. <!-- You will need 31 images named 1.jpg through 31.jpg -->
  4. <!--    // start of script
  5.     // code by Joe Burns
  6.     var dt = new Date();
  7.     var hr = dt.getDate();
  8.     var msg="<IMG SRC=image"+hr+".jpg>";
  9.     document.write(msg);
  10. <!-- end -->
  11. </SCRIPT>

As that script is written your images would have to be named image1.jpg not 1.jpg.

Rather than renaming all your images you could just change the line in the script to:
Code: [ Select ]
  var msg="<IMG SRC="+hr+".jpg>";
