Rotating banner - is daily rotation possible?

[AliB]

Hi there
If it is possible, please help with tips to do the following:
I would like to add a rotating banner containing 7 pictures (each of which need an external link) - the banner only needs to rotate every 24 hours. Is there such an application?
Thanks in advance!

Re: Rotating banner - is daily rotation possible?

Is the 24 hour-gap between the seven images.

For example, if you display one image today,
the next in line will get displayed after 24 hours.

So the first one will get its turn again after 7 days.

Is that what you meant?

If not, then could you explain in more detail?

Or

You want to display one image for the whole 24 hours.
And that would be one image for the whole Internet world to see
for that day?

And then the second day, the second one.

and so on. So on the 8th day, the process repeats itself.

yes, that's exactly what I mean - each of the seven images are viewed one per day for 7 days.........all starts over again on day 8 - same images in same rotation!!!!

Place the script below in a html box on your page. Then change the parts in red for your image url's.
Only the 20th & 21st will work at the moment.

<script>
<!--
var today_obj=new Date()
var today_date=today_obj.getDate()

var tips=new Array()
//Configure the below variable to contain the "header" of the tip
var tiptitle=''

//Configure the below array to hold the 31 possible tips of the month
tips[1]='Tip for day 1 here'
tips[2]='Tip 2 goes here'
tips[3]='Tip 3 goes here'
tips[4]='Tip 4 goes here'
tips[5]='Tip 5 goes here'

Another flavor of what you need, perhaps?

You can tweak it to your liking.

I will test it tomorrow and the next day to see if it correctly
picks up the day and displays the image accordingly.

Obviously you have to change the images and URL.

As you can see, target is set to _blank for all URLs.

You can remove the document.writeln two statements if you want.

As you can see new date is picked up ONLY when the page is refreshed.

Otherwise, you can bring it into the loop. However, that would be an
overkill.

I modified BlueVoda logic for rotating images.

<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">

var RotatingImage1_Images = new Array(1);
var RotatingImage1_URLs = new Array(1);
var RotatingImage1_Targets = new Array(1);
var weekday = new Array(1);

var RotatingImage1_Index = 1;

RotatingImage1_Targets[1] = "_blank";

var d=new Date();
var dnum=d.getDay();


switch (dnum)
{
case 0 :
RotatingImage1_Images[1] = "http://www.mywebsiteworkout.com/ad-rotator-bv.gif";
RotatingImage1_URLs[1] = "http://www.vodahost.com/partner/idevaffiliate.php?id=8418_1_1_69";
weekday[1]="Sunday";
break;

case 1 :
RotatingImage1_Images[1] = "http://www.mywebsiteworkout.com/ad-rotator-vh.gif";
RotatingImage1_URLs[1] = "http://www.vodahost.com/partner/idevaffiliate.php?id=8418_0_1_139";
weekday[1]="Monday";
break;

case 2 :
RotatingImage1_Images[1] = "http://www.mywebsiteworkout.com/ad-rotator-gp.gif";
RotatingImage1_URLs[1] = "http://www.vodahost.com/partner/idevaffiliate.php?id=8418_10_1_90";
weekday[1]="Tuesday";
break;

case 3 :
RotatingImage1_Images[1] = "http://www.mywebsiteworkout.com/ad-rotator-sb.gif";
RotatingImage1_URLs[1] = "http://www.seobook.com/3578-1-1-26.html";
weekday[1]="Wednesday";
break;

case 4 :
RotatingImage1_Images[1] = "http://www.mywebsiteworkout.com/ad-rotator-wc.gif";
RotatingImage1_URLs[1] = "http://www.webceo.com/cgi-bin/go/clickthru.cgi?id=wysiwyg4";
weekday[1]="Thursday";
break;

case 5 :
RotatingImage1_Images[1] = "http://www.mywebsiteworkout.com/ad-rotator-bv.gif";
RotatingImage1_URLs[1] = "http://www.vodahost.com/partner/idevaffiliate.php?id=8418_1_1_69";
weekday[1]="Friday";
break;

default :
RotatingImage1_Images[1] = "http://www.mywebsiteworkout.com/ad-rotator-vh.gif";
RotatingImage1_URLs[1] = "http://www.vodahost.com/partner/idevaffiliate.php?id=8418_0_1_139";
weekday[1]="Saturday";
}

function RotatingImage1ShowNext()
{
eval("document.RotatingImage1.src = RotatingImage1_Images[" + RotatingImage1_Index + "]");
RotatingImage1ShowNext();
}

function onRotatingImage1Click()
{
targetwin = RotatingImage1_Targets[RotatingImage1_Index];
eval("window.open(url = RotatingImage1_URLs[RotatingImage1_Index],'" + targetwin +"');");
}

document.writeln("<PRE>Image for " + weekday[1]);
document.writeln("</PRE>");

</script>
<a href="#" onClick="onRotatingImage1Click();return false;">
<img src="http://www.mywebsiteworkout.com/ad-rotator-bv.gif" id="RotatingImage1" border="0" align="top" width="468" height="60" name="RotatingImage1"></a>

Re: Rotating banner - is daily rotation possible?

I had issues running this in IE. Everything else worked but in IE I get an "Out of memory at line" error. In my case it's line 189. That code is as follows:

eval("document.RotatingImage1.src = RotatingImage1_Images[" + RotatingImage1_Index + "]");

Anything you can advise me on would be much appreciated.

Thanks,
Kenny
