Picture Circulation With Every Page Load - Simple

thetzfreak · 11-05-2005, 09:46 PM

Is there a simple html code that could circulate 2 or more different pictures/banners? For example, if there are two banners to choose from, it would have a 50% chance of one of them to display on my webpage. One could be http://sitename.com/picture.jpg and another http://sitename.com/picture2.jpg.

Can I get some code for this?

Thanks.

I don't think you could do this with pure html, you're gonna need some javascript or php.

Just do a search for "banner rotation" on any script search site such as
http://www.hotscripts.com and that should do the trick.

http://www.focalmedia.net/htmlrotate.html has a script, but I've never used it so I can't vouch for it.

Hope this helps,
Jorge

If javascript is ok, try here.

Just change it to use 2 images not 5

PHP is easy as well. Have a few lines of code index what's inm a certain folder of banners, and pick a random one out of em.

Code:

<?php
$path = "directory_full_of_banners";
$handle=opendir($path);
$count = "-1";
while ($file = readdir($handle)) {
	if($file!=".."||$file!="."||$file!="Thumbs.db") {
	$count++;
	$randombannerarray[] = $file;
	}
}
$randompick = rand("0",$count);
echo '<img src="'.$path.'/'.$randombannerarray[$randompick].'" />';
?>
