HTML question - looping images

jamtart6

aha! a code lifter website, sounds just what I need!

Yes programming and web design does appear to be a cut and paste job when you first begin, and then a copy and amend job and hopefully eventually a 'write your own'. For the level of stuff I will need to do, 'copy and amend' is basically as far as I need to go with HTML, but I am up to the 'write your own' in C# programming which is quite an achievment for a year's worth of part time hobby for someone who had no idea what a variable was 15 months ago!

Bluboy - I would love nothing more than to show off my very sophisticated copy and paste job but unfortunately it is my work webpage so I do not feel comfortable giving the details out here. It does look smashing though if I do say so myself LOL

I do something different on my blood bikes charity website - http://www.freewheelers.org.uk - the images on the right side of each page change randomly whenever you reload a page or go to one of the other pages on the site. I use a bit of javascript that simply picks one of a number of images at random. The key thing for me is that the image never changes while you are viewing a page - that would annoy the hell out of me.

Here is the code I use to give you an idea:

<script type="text/javascript">
var hospital = new Array('oncology.jpg','frenchay2.jpg','minehead.jpg','BRI.jpg','paulton.jpg','musgrove.jpg','bristol-childrens.jpg','frenchay.jpg','ruh.jpg','weston.jpg');
var num = Math.floor((Math.random() * hospital.length));
document.writeln('<img class="floatclear" src="/images/right-side/' + hospital[num] + '" alt="Hospitals served by Freewheelers" />')
</script>
