Random Banner Question

Does anyone have a link that shows what a random banner looks please?

I was actually hunting for a marquee type banner/image box like the ones at the top of the forum I am moving from. Is there a code for these marquee type boxes?

The random banner code you linked to is so that you can rotate your banners/images.   Every page refresh the image will change.

There are several affliates codes in the Codes Index  Some of them are set to marquee

Just one thing Sibyl,

When I checked out the preview, the banner is moving sorta fast. I don't see anything in the code that lets ya adjust the speed of the banners. Is there a way to adjust the speed?

 :)

Change <marquee>  to <marquee scrollamount=5>
 Change 5 to whatever number you need for the speed you want.   (you'll have to play with it)

or do it this way so when you put your mouse on one of the banners it stops:

<marquee direction="right" onmouseover="this.stop()" onmouseout="this.start()" scrollamount="5">

Okedokey...  :)

Just one more thing this evening..

I went to edit in the code to the header. When I look at the header/footer edit page there is an empty box for each. Above the header box it says "Headers: - After <body> tag"

Above the footer box it says "Footers: - Before </body> tag"

I am use to inserting code within other existing codes that are already within the header and footer.

Do I just go ahead and paste the code for the affiliate box into the header box?

It just looks very different to me from what I am use too and I dont want to mess up any existing codes that my be there and I just cant see them for what ever reason...

How do I know where the box is going to show up at on top of the forum if I place the code in the header box?

Hope some of that made sense.....  :D

If you put it in the Header it will be above the forum.
If you put it in the Footer it will be below the forum.

;)   You'll get used to it after you do it a few times.  Just be sure you have the codes correct and it won't mess things up.

Ok, looking great.. Just one more question for ya.

Is there a way to make it change direction. Scroll from right to left instead of left to right. The way I have them set up, it looks kinda weird with them both moving the same direction.

<marquee direction="left" onmouseover="this.stop()" onmouseout="this.start()" scrollamount="5">
