Random Image on page load problem

stewb · 04-02-2005, 01:38 PM

Hello all

I am having errors for some reason for the following script, can anyone help here?

What i want to do is randomize set images in the same location each time the same page is loaded by someone: It's driving me nuts !! The script is:

<head>

<script language="javascript">

function imgswp() {
var imgs = new Array("../Banners/0009.jpg","../Banners/0010.jpg","../Banners/0011.jpg","../Banners/0012.jpg")
document.getElementById("aimg").src = imgs[Math.floor(Math.random()*imgs.length)]
}
</script>

</head>

<body onLoad="imgswp()">

<div id="top2">
<h2>
<img border="0" img id="aimg" src="" width="430" height="85" >
</h2></div>

The problem was seemingly unrelated but vital. The code i used was fine, it was because i had other Javascript on the same page and forgot to seperate it properly in the header ie </script> and start another <script> for the new code.

In my header one set of code referred to a js page and the new code for this randomiser was on the same home page.

A debugger program would have found this for me quicker but i find without it i learn a lot more.
