Hello, I have Photoshop 7, And DreamWeaver MX, and I'am wanting to Create a banner for a site that I'am making, and Wanting the banner to change, say for example that the banner change's to advertise Photoshopcafe.com, when it does change,you will be able to click on it and it will take you there,but say in 2or3 seconds it will change to advertise planetphotoshop.com, then if you click on it, it will take you to that site, this is the kind of banner that I want to make, Can someone Help me with this? Thankyou:):)

i could code something in php...
but i dunno how it worx with the refresh (one could put in an iframe...)

a changin banner on refresh is simple...
linking isn´t a problem either...
but i do see problems with changing it every 3seconds...

i guess java-script will do it, too (but i have no clue...)

so, if you can´t find a solution, contact me.

Image Ready ir Swish are two good recommended Prog's...go check'em out!

a java script should be able to do that, or you could make it flash

[SonicExplode]

yeah, flash is another idea of making it, it would be more easier than javascript...

anyway, here's the code for refresh,
<META HTTP-EQUIV="Refresh" CONTENT"numberOFseconds; URL=nextURL.html">

example:
<META HTTP-EQUIV="Refresh" CONTENT"10; URL=about.html">

about the changing banner i think it used javascript, try find in some javascript website like Javascript.com (www.javascript.com)...

oh ya, it needs an iframe aswell, so it wont refresh whole the page instead of a little page (iframe) :)

erm, ur avater is pretty big huh? or u filled in a wrong blank? :o

It sounds like JavaScript is the way to go mcloud. I think if you created an array to hold all your images in them, then you can just scroll through them.

I know a fair bit of JavaScript, so if you still haven't sorted our your problem and you want a hand then let me know!

Okay I don't know if this is what your looking for but you could do something like this, I have one banner but you could just keep adding the ones you wanted, and it was done with imageready. By the way my banner is the one with the car.

Okay I added a 2nd banner though very basic it should show you what I'm talking about.

kumod,
he wants the link to change with the image as well ;)

conclusion:
so, like said before, java-script is the way to go (altough i would prefer php).
wont work without iframe (exception: flash...)

Yeah I understand that he wants the link to change with the image as well I was just showing that you could have a banner that could link to a site. I think you could probably come up with another graphic banner and then have say 2 or 3 of them roll like the text on this one I did. But instead of Text you would have your next banner. I know I'm not describing this very well perhaps I'll just try it myself and see if it works or not. I could be way off base here and have no clue what I'm talking about :lol:lol

Your probably right about the java-script being the way to go but I have no idea where one would start with that so I tried to figure out how I would attempt to solve this.


Okay I added the 2nd banner now it's basic but should give you an idea of what I'm talking about
