[Code] Alternating Banners
« on: March 24, 2007, 10:02:38 am »
Forum Url: http://trench.smfforfree2.com
Is there a code that will allow me to repeatedly alternate from one banner to another and back again ?

Any help or advice appreciated

Here's a script I nabbed from http://www.java-scripts.net

Code: [Select]
<script language="JavaScript">
<!--
/*
Random Image Link Script
By Website Abstraction (http://www.wsabstract.com)
and Java-scripts.net (http://www.java-scripts.net)
*/

function random_imglink(){
  var myimages=new Array()
  //specify random images below. You can have as many as you wish
  myimages[1]="img1.gif"
  myimages[2]="img2.gif"

  //specify corresponding links below
  var imagelinks=new Array()
  imagelinks[1]=""
  imagelinks[2]=""

  var ry=Math.floor(Math.random()*myimages.length)

  if (ry==0)
     ry=1
     document.write('<a href='+'"'+imagelinks[ry]+'"'+'><img src="'+myimages[ry]+'" border=0></a>')
}

  random_imglink()
//-->
</script>
Just replace img1.gif and img2.gif with two separate images. It will randomly select one and display it on each page load.

Could this be changed for backgrounds of forums that are fixed?

Just replace img1.gif and img2.gif with two separate images. It will randomly select one and display it on each page load.

in addition to changing "img1" and "img2", dont you have to put the urls of the images inside the quotes here? (just want to make sure before I actually try this..lol)

Code: [Select]
//specify corresponding links below
  var imagelinks=new Array()
  imagelinks[1]=""
  imagelinks[2]=""

This is what I have done and it works fine

function random_imglink(){
  var myimages=new Array()
    myimages[1]="http://i111.photobucket.com/albums/n131/carpaddict13/cooltext49413267.gif"
  myimages[2]="http://i111.photobucket.com/albums/n131/carpaddict13/cooltext49431622.gif"
  myimages[3]="http://i111.photobucket.com/albums/n131/carpaddict13/BAN1.jpg"
  myimages[4]="http://i111.photobucket.com/albums/n131/carpaddict13/cooltext49431543.gif"
  myimages[5]="http://i111.photobucket.com/albums/n131/carpaddict13/BAN2.jpg"
 
  var imagelinks=new Array()
  imagelinks[1]="http://i111.photobucket.com/albums/n131/carpaddict13/cooltext49431543.gif"
  imagelinks[2]="http://i111.photobucket.com/albums/n131/carpaddict13/cooltext49413267.gif"
  imagelinks[3]="http://i111.photobucket.com/albums/n131/carpaddict13/cooltext49431622.gif"
  imagelinks[4]="http://i111.photobucket.com/albums/n131/carpaddict13/BAN2.jpg"
  imagelinks[5]="http://i111.photobucket.com/albums/n131/carpaddict13/BAN1.jpg"
  var ry=Math.floor(Math.random()*myimages.length)

  if (ry==0)
     ry=1
     document.write('<a href='+'"'+imagelinks[ry]+'"'+'><img src="'+myimages[ry]+'" border=0>')
}

  random_imglink()
//-->

I wouldnt think it would affect your background.. your putting that code in your headers not your css code. (could be wrong tho..lol)

edit---or are you wanting it to alternate backgrounds?

I would think that the banner code could just be modified in order to make it into backgrounds instead of banners that would change with each page view, there's a code on help4admins.com, under the scripts section, that allows the page to change at certain times of the day, but how do you get it to do that with every page visit?

I'm going to take a shot in the woods at this one.
I don't know much about javascript..so if it doesn't work I wouldn't be surprised.
Try this:
Code: [Select]
<script language="JavaScript">
<!--
/*
Random Image Link Script
By Website Abstraction (http://www.wsabstract.com)
and Java-scripts.net (http://www.java-scripts.net)
*/

function random_imglink(){
  var myimages=new Array()
  //specify random images below. You can have as many as you wish
  myimages[1]="img1.gif"
  myimages[2]="img2.gif"

  //specify corresponding links below
  var imagelinks=new Array()
  imagelinks[1]=""
  imagelinks[2]=""

  var ry=Math.floor(Math.random()*myimages.length)

  if (ry==0)
     ry=1
     document.write('<style type="text/css">
body {background-image: url("'+myimages[ry]+'")}
</style>')
}

  random_imglink()
//-->
</script>
Put the background images into 'myimages'

I tried playing around with it some more. You're right, it doesn't work.

Sorry, I can't help then at all.
