I want to load several photos to allow a new photo to show up upon refreshing or visiting the site. I have looked for
snippets, behaviors, etc.

Does anyone have an idea of what I can do.

thanks

Do you want an Ad Rotator type thing which counts the number of times the photo has been displayed or just something that displays a random photo each time the page is displayed?

If you mean "pre-load" images, then you should just try Macromedia's preload <i>Behavior</i>. It'll add JS (JavaScript) to the <i>onLoad</i> event of your &lt;body&gt; tag. If you can't find it, trick DW by putting a fake "Swap Image RollOver" <i>Behavior</i> and you'll see the function/code for preloading, then just edit as you wish.

... If that was what you were asking for.

As for random photo displaying on refresh/loading...that's in JavaScript or Server-Side code (PHP,ASP,etc). You can find a few dozen of these samples all over the web, just Google "random image JavaScript" or something like that. <img src=../images/dmxzone/forum/icon_smile.gif border=0 align=middle>

Since I'm not sure what <i>Server Model</i> language you want to use, check out Macromedia's Exchange (www.macromedia.com/exchange/) and search for "random image" and you will see an extension for every lanugage (JS, ASP, PHP, etc.)

Ok, I'm <b>assuming</b> you're using ASP, I've not used any extension for randomising the image - though now Chris mentions it...

There's a script on this page authors.aspalliance.com/brettb/RandomImageSelector.asp that you can use to randomise your images. If you want to use random images on more than 1 page then I'd suggest you use includes so you don't have to copy it into all your pages.

Check out both parts of this article - www.4guysfromrolla.com/webtech/010301-1.shtml and www.4guysfromrolla.com/webtech/010301-1.2.shtml just in case you wanna go down the rotation route at a later date.
