I need an example html coding for an automatic slide show for 3 pictures that repeats by itself. Also, need to know where to put the <img="..."> in the code. My pictures are already loaded on the internet, but want to post on a different website. Thank you. An example would be GREAT!

Check out image slideshows for a few ideas.

Here is the html code I found off that site for a Drop Down Slide Show.
Now, where do I put this??? eg: <img=src"mypictureonline.jpg">
this is really confusing me.

<script language="JavaScript1.2">

//Drop-in slideshow- By Dynamic Drive

var slideshow_width='140px' //SET SLIDESHOW WIDTH (set to largest image's width if multiple dimensions exist)
var slideshow_height='225px' //SET SLIDESHOW HEIGHT (set to largest image's height if multiple dimensions exist)
var pause=3000 //SET PAUSE BETWEEN SLIDE (3000=3 seconds)

var dropimages=new Array()
//SET IMAGE PATHS. Extend or contract array as needed
dropimages[0]="photo1.jpg"
dropimages[1]="photo2.jpg"
dropimages[2]="photo3.jpg"

Which one did you get - I see a lot of different places for the path to the image
