Hello

I have obviously done something wrong in my attempt to create a rotating banner page in ASP because I get the following message:

Microsoft VBScript runtime error '800a01a8'

Object required: ''

/stevehigham/Banner.asp, line 11

Does anybody know what this can mean?

There is only one page (Banner.asp) and 3 images. Here is the full code for Banner.asp

<html>
<body>

<%
set adrotator=Server.CreateObject(&quot;MSWC.AdRotator&quot;)

'adrotator.Border=&quot;2&quot;
'me:the above adrotatot.Border=&quot;2&quot; statement is is not necessary:
'it simply specifies the borders around the advertisement

adrot.Clickable=false

'Specifies whether advertisement is a hyperlink or not

Response.Write(adrotator.GetAdvertisement(&quot;ads.txt&quot;))
%>



<p>
<a href=&quot;ads.txt&quot;>
<img border=&quot;0&quot; src=&quot;banner1.gif&quot;>
<img border=&quot;0&quot; src=&quot;banner2.gif&quot;>
<img border=&quot;0&quot; src=&quot;banner3.gif&quot;>

</a>
</p>

</body>
</html>

Hello Codestorm and Decojute

Many thanks for both of your helpful replies.

Yes, I know it can be done in JavaScript. I suppose I just wanted to try it out in ASP!

Thank you also, Codestorm, for pointing out an obvious error.

Best wishes

Steve
