Slide-show (random Images)?
Jul 23, 2005I would like to make a slide show using random images. The problem is my
host is 250.com, and they don't support cgi-programs. Is there another
way to accomplish random images?

I have one web-page and one picture box in the middle of page. I have some images in my SQL database, I want to load those images on picture box placed on my web page one by one. I want to display each image for 3 seconds and then next image, but these image are not fix, I will keep changing original image files in the images directory and will specify their names in database tables. Structure of database table is as follows:
pictureID pictureNameAndPath
1 images/picture1.gif
2 images/picture2.gif
3 images/picture3.gif
I just want from system to read this tables and display these pictures in the picture box placed on the page, using Javascript.
Im using the method i found on the net. but still got problem working. dont know where i done wrong. images not appearing.
<script type="text/javascript">
I'm using the following script to show images with fade in and out. How can I display the images in random order?
Code:
I'm a real newbie with Javascript, but I'm having fun. I just bought the book, "Simply Javascript" (have only just cracked it so far). I'm reasonably familiar with PHP (I use a lot of it to do simple things). I'm a Web desinger and do custom CSS Websites (I'm fairly new to that too couple of years or more working with CSS and I've never done a table based layout.
[Code]...
But when the button is clicked, nothing will call the showCaption() function again, and I can't figure out how to call that function as the images advance. I have tried a lot of things with a lot of weird results, one being the tne next caption will display in a blank browser window, without the Webpage! I'm not sure why that happens, but I have a clue.
Is there an easier way to do what I want to do? I only want to show a few lines of text that will describe each image. Seems simple enough to me, but I'm just too new to make it work.
I prefer jQuery over flash and not sure how to tackle this, so please advise as best you can. Trying to create a site that allows for images to go full browser and then have the ability to have the other images slide in based on a click.
I also want to float a menu that will allow it to pull in other media (video, that would slide in the same way). The best example I can share is this: http://j.mp/5U79i1 What he is using is flash based (slideshowpro director and slideshow pro for flash). Not interested in flash for this personal project.
What I'm looking to do is have a folder of images that I have show up on my website.I'm also looking to pull from this folder up to 6 or 7 times on the same page w/ randomized pictures that do not repeat.Finally, I'm looking to be able to size and name these images based on which image randomly pulls. b/c it's not grabbing the images.
images = new Array()
images[images.length] = 'images/example.jpg'
images[images.length] = 'images/example.jpg'[code].....
I found a sample java script for a slide show.
I'm trying modify it to show four pictures at a time.
And links to youtube videos
I really have no clue what I'm doing, I'm just changing stuff and seeing what happens. Yeah, I'm surprised I got this far.
What I need to learn is:
< how to assign and change the other three pictures.
< how to change the embeded image link.
Here is what I got so far: Slide show of Movies
And here is the code:
I have a problem on my wordpress blog that is integregated with a 3rd party shopping system. What I'm finding is that the Image Slide Show will not show up on the product page but will show up on other pages. obviously there is some conflict but I don't know where.Example: here is the product listing page while in the header the slide show seems to work fine.Now here is the page if you select one of the t-shirts but as you will see the image slide show in the Header vanishes?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI've used Jquery Cycle to build thefollowingpage: [URL] As you can see the slides runnicelyin sequence with a clickable navigation. I would like to be able to run this slide show from a random starting slide on each page load, but for the slide show to remain in sequence and not load random slides thereafter. I'm sure this is doable - but the only random syntax I've found for this plugiin loads just random slides, out of the running order, which makes the navigation run randomly. I just want the starting slide to be random.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI try to build my own preview image in javascript (specifically in jQuery). Now about every image have an atribute onclick="ShowBigImg(NAME_OF_IMAGE)" and the function ShowBigImg shows the image in original size. But in every photogallery are 5-10 images and I would to add an option paging in this photo gallery -- similary, how it knows Fancybox eg., or Thickbox...
My idea is following code...
And I try after press a key "a" to get the name of following image... but always insted a name of image only 'Name of next images: undefined'.
can someone clarify how to use random images

View 2 Replies View RelatedI am basically looking to create a background for my website and when you refresh the page the image changes to another picture for the background. I have asked one of my good friends to have a look at it and he gave me some code to work with and so I have changed bits here and there and it worked in firefox and safari but will not work in IE. I have attached the code here for you and also the html file.

There is also a flash file embedded into this document!
I want to display 4 random images and I would like to get them to NOT repeat themselves. So if image one is randomly selected as "aceclubs.png" I don't want image two to be the same and so on for the other images. This currently the code I'm using right now. I've been duplicating this function with different names for each of the 4 images. However it sometimes produces two of the same image and I don't want that.
function random_ace(){
var cardace = new Array(4)
cardace[0] = "aceclubs.png";
cardace[1] = "acediamonds.png";
cardace[2] = "acehearts.png";
cardace[3] = "acespades.png";
var randomace = Math.floor(Math.random()*cardace.length);
var ace = cardace[randomace];
card1.src=ace
}
Reference website: Untitled Document.The above webpage contained simply javescript of random images in full screen & menu made by Sothink DHTML Menu.In Chrome & Firefox the content display perfectly with no issue. However, it's all blank or, only the menu showed up in IE6 & IE7. I am not sure in IE8 & IE9 as I don't have them.

I've tried looking for a script that will do the same but I keep coming across javascripts that will change just one image randomly or change multiple images randomly but the images aren't related.
I also have seen PHP scripts with full-fledged features and an admin panel where I can create ad farms to accomplish my goal but I think that's overkill.
Does anyone know where I can find this javascript? FYI, I am weak at writing javascript myself so that's why I'm looking for a cut-and-paste script.
For years I used a javascript code to generate random banners/images in my site. Everithing worked fine.
But recently I moved to another host and the code dosnt work properly, i.e., if you open the browser and go to www.megafarol.pt the imagens dont show up. You need to hit Refresh to work properly. Also, if you return to that page, then everithing works fine.
This script produces 5 random images and works lika a dream. Im trying to figure out how to create links for each of the five rotating images, so the link would also rotate and reflect the new image? Code:
View 6 Replies View RelatedI have seen lots of PHP scripts and javascripts for what I need, but none that seem to fit exactly.
I'd like a simple page with two image windows, the same size, one on the upper left and one on the upper right. The images are about 250 x 200. I'd like the pictures in these panes to change randomly. It's sort of a slideshow, except that I'd like the images to change from a random pool of images and it will be automatic; there will be no previous/next buttons or links.
I've seen a PHP slideshow that did this, but only when the page was refreshed. I've seen javascript slideshows, as well. I've used a Dreamweaver extension called flevOOware in the past.
Can anyone recommend some javascript that would work for this? Ideally it could work for multiple images on a page.
Anyone could give me some leads on where to find a javascript program
to make an automated slideshow with pictures located in an specific
directory? What I mean is that I do not wish to specify specific
pictures, but just tell the program to use all the contents (*.*) of
a specific directory.
Whats the easies way to add captions to a slide show.
I have the basic slide show format with images in an array and having them get cycled through via a function like chgSlide(-1) or chgSlide(1).
I can' easily add the captions to an array. I'm not sure how to print the captions on the page. I could use a text box but thats lame.
How could I print these on the page as each image is updated in the slide show?
My slide show seem to not be initializing I used a base from [URL] and tweaked it around to be exactly what I need and it won't start.
here is my js
var interval = 1500; //1.5 secs
var random_display = 0; //goes in order
//defines where the images are stored
[Code]....
I have to include:1) 10-20 pictures2) a title that is displayed at the top of the page3) the file name of the current picture4) a drop down list that allows the user to ynamically change the background color. Black (default), red, green, orange, brown, and blue.5) Right under the pictures there should be five clickable images for first, previous, next, last and random. 6) I can use any images for the above described buttons.7) The slide show should rotate through images whenever border conditions are met. For example, if the next button is clicked on the last picture, then the first picture in the deck should get loaded. Alternatively, if the previous button is clicked on the first picture, then the last picture in the deck should get loaded.8) When the random button is clicked, a random picture must be selected. A randomly selected picture must be different from the current picture.9) Each button must display a tool-tip when the mouse hovers over the image. 10) CSS for all formatting.11) Javascript code in separate file.So far i have:
<script type = "text/javascript">
function loadPicture() {
var img = new Image();
[code]....
For some reason, the slide show at this link will not work in Firefox, but works in IE, Chrome and Safari. Any ideas on why its buggy.
