Making an animated gif play once on each reload

[reeter]

Hello all,

My problem was that I had an animated gif that didn't loop. However, the image would only play the first time the page loaded and did not play each time the page was re-visited.

I read about someone appending random numbers to an image in PHP, but PHP wasn't an option on my page. So, what I did was put an ID field on this image:

id="<%# Guid.NewGuid() %>"

Hope this helps someone.
