slide show application

beckstei

I need to write a slide show application that automatically
changes images every x second. I set up a simple page that
reloads a new image when the page is refreshed and then
set <meta http-equiv=REFRESH CONTENT="3"> in the header.
The problem with this is that it reloads the entire page. There
are nav images and other content on the page that shouldn't
reload.

Can someone give me a push in the right direction on how I
can automatically change an image with out reloading the entire
page?
Thanks

Use Javascript smth like

image[0].src = '1.jpg';
image[1].src = '2.jpg';
image[2].src = '3.jpg';
image[3].src = '4.jpg';
image[4].src = '5.jpg';
image[5].src = '6.jpg';

and function change_image(i)
{
document.all.my_img.src = image.src;
}

Then use setTimeout().

I'm no good in JS, so I can't write working code right now, but the idea is like this. For syntax you can look anywhere 🙂

Still there are some browser-compatibility issues.

Another way is to have an IFRAME with meta refresh.
