Hi guys..

I'm in need of an applet or code that will enable me to display a series of photos with captions on a specific day of week and time of day using the SERVER clock and d-o-w.
I'm a fairly new webmaster of an online streaming radio station and we have about 20 dj's that do shows at various times thru the week and I would like to have a spot on our main page that shows "Who's On Now"

Can anybody help me locate or help me code this?

Thanks

Roger

PHP can be used to display images and text at a certain time, OR in case a DJ doesn't show up you could get the DJ's to log in to keep the site accurate. PHP can handle both.

Thanks for the reply Len. Having never coded in PHP before where can one find the info I would need to take on a project such as this?

Thanks again.

Here are some places to start:

http://www.php.net/tut.php
http://devzone.zend.com/node/view/id/627

And then of course, read the manual @ php.net/manual if you get stuck...

That should be enough to let you see whether or not you want to go that road, and always feel free to post back with questions!

Sorry, forgot about that one (d'oh).. that may have some (or all) of the resources I just mentioned, but it is more comprehensive..
