Need help with modifying this code:

This code works for me except instead of a random image upon page reload... is there a way to modify this so it just does a random image about every 5 seconds? To be honest I don't really even need it to be random, if it can just play a list of images in order that works too.

Code:

<script type="text/javascript">

<!--

 var imlocation = "RotatingImages/";

 var currentdate = 0;

 var image_number = 0;

 function ImageArray (n) {

   this.length = n;

   for (var i =1; i <= n; i++) {

     this[i] = ' '

   }

 }

 image = new ImageArray(3)

 image[0] = '1.jpg'

 image[1] = '2.jpg'

 image[2] = '3.jpg'

 var rand = 60/image.length

 function randomimage() {

         currentdate = new Date()

         image_number = currentdate.getSeconds()

         image_number = Math.floor(image_number/rand)

         return(image[image_number])

 }

 document.write("<img src='" + imlocation + randomimage()+ "'>");

//-->

</script>

Despite the similar sounding names, Java is not the same as Javascript.

We could write a custom answer for you, but what you are after is known as a "slideshow" or sometimes (inaccurately) as a "lightbox". There are *TONS* of scripts out there for all kinds of slideshows. Just google for "javascript slide show" and be prepared to be inundated.
