Slide Show

[rac55]

Hi

I am trying to create a slideshow whcih works when referencing jpgs or gifs in the array. However I need to reference <script type="text/javascript" src="

http://www.weatherzone.com.au/woys/graphic_forecast.jsp?postcode=4000"></script>

instead o images/test.gif

e.g.

var pictures = new Array
// List all the pictures in the slideshow here
(
"<script type=\"text/javascript\" src=\"

http://www.weatherzone.com.au/woys/graphic_forecast.jsp?postcode=4000\"><\/script>" 

,"<script type=\"text/javascript\" src=\"

http://www.weatherzone.com.au/woys/graphic_forecast.jsp?postcode=2000\"><\/script>" 

,"<script type=\"text/javascript\" src=\"

http://www.weatherzone.com.au/woys/graphic_forecast.jsp?postcode=8000\"><\/script>" 

);

Does anyoen know where I'm goign wrong? Your help would be greatly appreciated

Thanks
Rachel

Why wouldn't you use:

<img src="

http://www.weatherzone.com.au/woys/graphic_forecast.jsp?postcode=4000">

instead of the script tags? I don't think you can load scripts like that, after the fact, and what you have written when the page is loaded is what you have to work with.

Are those URLs actual photos then?

Hi Lee

Thanks for replying so quickly. I tried that but the images are not displayed that way.

Thanks

Just took a look at what you actually had with those URLs. You're doing this the hard way. Try something like this:

<script language="javascript">

var mapnums = [4000, 2000, 8000];
var mi = 0;
function switchmap()
{
var mstring = '<!-- Weatherzone graphic -->';
mstring += '<map id="__WZ_GRAPHIC_FCAST_MAP_' + mapnum[mi] + '__" ';
mstring += 'name="__WZ_GRAPHIC_FCAST_MAP_' + mapnum[mi] + '__">';
mstring += '<area shape="rect" coords="0, 0, 124, 40" ';
mstring += 'href="[URL unfurl="true"]http://www.weatherzone.com.au/local/wxSearch.jsp?searchString='[/URL] + mapnum[mi] + '" ';
mstring += 'target="_blank" alt="click for more">';
mstring += '<area shape="rect" coords="0, 40, 124, 79" ';
mstring += 'href="[URL unfurl="true"]http://www.weatherzone.com.au/weatherYourSite.jsp"[/URL] ';
mstring += ' target="_blank" alt="click for weather on your site">';
mstring += '</map>';
mstring += '<img src="[URL unfurl="true"]http://www.weatherzone.com.au/servlet/au.com.theweather.weatherzone.woys.WOYSGraphicManager?graphic=graphic_fcast&postcode='[/URL] + mapnum[mi] + '" ';
mstring += 'width="125" height="80" ';
mstring += 'usemap=\"#__WZ_GRAPHIC_FCAST_MAP_' + mapnum[mi] + '__\" ';
mstring += 'ismap border="0" alt="click for more" />';

document.getElementById('mapdiv').innerHTML = mstring;

mi++;
mi %= mapnums.length;

}
</script>
<div id="mapdiv">

</div>
