thats a pretty easy script to make yourself if you hardcode the images and address

anyway, heres a javascript for you

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
function random_banner(){
var i=0;
banners = new Array();
banners[0] = '<IMG SRC="banner0.gif" WIDTH=400 HEIGHT=40>';
banners[1] = '<IMG SRC="banner1.gif" WIDTH=400 HEIGHT=40>';
banners[2] = '<IMG SRC="banner2.gif" WIDTH=400 HEIGHT=40>';
today = new Date();
i=today.getSeconds();
n=banners.length;
return banners[i-Math.round((i-1)/n)*n];
}
</SCRIPT>

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
document.write(random_banner())
</SCRIPT>

in the array above just add the banners you want

I don't know how to write codes, i'm a graphic designer, i already have a banner script that i use on my site and it works very well the only problem is that it only supports gif & jpeg so it limites me if i want to design a flash banner for my clients, i need something that support all 3 formats. I will appreciate some help on finding the script.

Well looking into it it seems that the ad rotator uses image tags in a text file and flash are objects so it might not work. Might be wrong there. There are a few solutions found on the web most that look good cost money though. Can't you just make a flash movie with different links to different banners. ok you would not have any weighing in there but it would be a banner rotator. go to google and search around, there should be some stuff for you.

Hi,

I'm trying this and it works fine with 1, 2 or 3 banners (like above).

However, when I add a fourth banner (banners[3]), it doesn't show - I get the word "undefined" on the page instead.

Currently the fourth entry is an exact duplicate of the (working) third entry (yes, I have changed it's number!)

Any suggestions?

This is exactly what you want:

<%
SET objFrontAd=Server.CreateObject("MSWC.ContentRotator")
FrontAdPath="adRotator/myAds.txt"
FrontAd=objFrontAd.ChooseContent(FrontAdPath)
Response.Write FrontAd
SET objFrontAd=Nothing
%>

And then in the adRotator/myAds.txt file enter something like:

%% 1
<a href="someURL.asp"><IMG SRC="myImage_1.jpg"></a>

%% 1
Any old HTML or text or whatever you feel like goes here. It cannot contain any ASP script though. <img src="thisPicture.gif>

Check the IIS documentation for more information on how to use the IIS ad rotator. It's drop dead simple and it works. Since objects are not script, they will work. Just enter the proper HTML code and you're good to go.

Cheers
