Hi,
I think the most simple approach is a combination with Javascript and PHP.
Try something like this:
1) scan your directory with images
2) produce html that contains the javascript to loop over the images.
You'll end up with something like this:
(not tested, just some code to get you going)
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
// fill the array imagenames from PHP
// by scanning the filenames in the directory.
// Have a look at: http://nl2.php.net/manual/en/function.readdir.php
// for some examplecode
var imagenames = ["mrJoe.jpg" , "ZaphodBreeblebrox.gif", "Marvin.png"];
var baseImageURL = "http://www.yoursite.com/images/";
var imgcount = -1;
var nrOfImages = imagenames.length;
nextimage();
function nextImage(){
imgcount++;
if(imgcount > nrOfImages) {
imgcount = 0;
}
// make full URL to image
var newImageSrc = baseImageURL + imagenames[imgcount];
// set the new Image
document.images.myImage.src=newImageSrc;
// Come back here in 5 seconds
setTimeout("nextImage()" , 5000);
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<img scr="" name="myImage">
</body>
</html>
Good luck.
