You can use the SSI command:
<!--#exec cgi="cgi-bin/banner.cgi"-->
Which will include into your web page whatever that banner.cgi returns. (You must use the .shtml file extension for the web server to recognize that command)
Or, I have a pretty quick and easy JavaScript one you could use
yah I'd love to use the javascript one.
that would be cool.
thanks for the help
Here ya go:
<script language="JavaScript">
var how_many_ads = 3;
var now = new Date()
var sec = now.getSeconds()
var ad = sec % how_many_ads;
ad +=1;
if (ad==1) {
alt="Banner1";
banner="images/banner1.jpg";
width="468";
height="64";
}
if (ad==2) {
alt="Banner2";
banner="images/banner2.jpg";
width="468";
height="64";
}
if (ad==3) {
alt="Banner3";
banner="images/banner3.jpg";
width="468";
height="64";
}
document.write('<center>');
document.write('<img src=\"' + banner + '\" width=')
document.write(width + ' height=' + height + ' ');
document.write('alt=\"' + alt + '\" border=0><br>');
document.write('</center>');
</script>
Give that a shot, I think it's pretty self explanatory on what needs to be altered in order to place in your own images into the mix. Good luck with it.
Ya Javascript can do the trick, you can find tons of free scripts at http://javascript.internet.com
