Step 1.
Put the following script in the head of your page:
<script>
// (C) 2000 www.CodeLifter.com
// http://www.codelifter.com
// Free for all users, but leave in this header
// NS4-6,IE4-6
// Fade effect only in IE; degrades gracefully
// =======================================
// set the following variables
// =======================================
// Set slideShowSpeed (milliseconds)
var slideShowSpeed = 5000
// Duration of crossfade (seconds)
var crossFadeDuration = 3
// Specify the image files
var Pic = new Array() // don't touch this
// to add more images, just continue
// the pattern, adding to the array below
Pic[0] = '1.jpg'
Pic[1] = '2.jpg'
Pic[2] = '3.jpg'
Pic[3] = '4.jpg'
Pic[4] = '5.jpg'
// =======================================
// do not edit anything below this line
// =======================================
var t
var j = 0
var p = Pic.length
var preLoad = new Array()
for (i = 0; i < p; i++){
preLoad[i] = new Image()
preLoad[i].src = Pic[i]
}
function runSlideShow(){
if (document.all){
document.images.SlideShow.style.filter="blendTrans(duration=2)"
document.images.SlideShow.style.filter="blendTrans(duration=crossFadeDuration)"
document.images.SlideShow.filters.blendTrans.Apply()
}
document.images.SlideShow.src = preLoad[j].src
if (document.all){
document.images.SlideShow.filters.blendTrans.Play()
}
j = j + 1
if (j > (p-1)) j=0
t = setTimeout('runSlideShow()', slideShowSpeed)
}
</script>
===========================================================
Step 2.
Put this onload event call in your body tag:
<body onload="runSlideShow()">
===========================================================
Step 3.
Put this in the body of your page where you want the
slide show to appear.
Set widths and heights same as images
Set image file same as first image in array Pic[] (above)
<table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">
<tr>
<td id="VU" height=150 width=150>
<img src="1.jpg" name='SlideShow' width=150 height=150></td>
</tr>
</table>
