Banner changes when page is refreshed?

GazRicey · 03-18-2009, 04:28 AM

Hi, All,

Could anybody please help me, I want to put banners on my website but I want them to change when the page is refreshed. I want to do this because I want to have a few different banners on the go.

Thanks in advance.

Hey, theres a few ways you could do this.

The first would be to always link to one file (mybanner.jpg) which contains Server-Side code to output the contents of a random banner file.

The second would be to have the banner change using Javascript, though this is less prefereable because it can be disabled.

Does your site already implement a server-side language? Can we see the code to the page in question?

Cheers,
Jamey

Yes my website does allow me to use server-side language. I want to put it on these website- www.ineedgames.co.uk and www.oldenglishnewspapers.com, i believe you can right click view source on the page.

Many thanks
