Automatic "picture show"

[Mike]

I would like to have a series of pictures "rotate" on a webpage. What I mean
is that, for example, I have 5 pictures. When I open the webpage, picture #1
is displayed, then every 10 seconds, the picture changes. When the last
picture is displayed, it loops back to the first picture and starts the
process over again, looping indefinitely.

I cannot locate this functionality within FrontPage 2003 -- can anyone help?

FP doesn't have any function like this. You will need to search for a 3rd Party JavaScript to
accomplish.

Dear Mike,

Although originally added for other purposes, obviously, the Microsoft
FrontPage Banner Ad Manager component - that you already have installed
with FP 2003 - might be just what you are looking for.

The Microsoft FrontPage Banner Ad Manager component is a Java applet
that displays a series of pictures one at a time, in a single location,
on your Web page. Clicking the banner takes the site visitor to another
Web page (or not, if you choose). You can customize the pictures, the
order in which the pictures are displayed, the time interval between
them, the transition effect, and the destination URL (Uniform Resource
Locator).

Although a built-in feature, the Banner Ad Manager is not a default
FrontPage 2003 menu option. To add the Banner Ad Manager component, see
'Add the Banner Ad Manager to the Insert menu...' on the following
page:

Play with it - it is a hoot. Don't reveal who told you, OK? Good luck,
Mike.

FYI: Windows XP / IE 6 and all future versions no longer come with built-in Java support, so many
users will not be able to see any Java applets.

Note: Java and JavaScript are not the same thing.
