newbie needs help please

Jan 21.2008

I have built a simple one page web site in html with the help of a mate via numerous e-mails. The page is just text and photographs. My mate has suggested inserting javascript to make the photos appear in random order each time the page is opened, very clever I thought. He’s sent me three files for reference together with the actual code.
Although he has tried several times to explain it to me and I have made lots of attempts I cannot get the code to work.
The code just appears on the web page after I have saved it.

He said to insert this at the top of the page

<script language=”JavaScript” type=”text/javascript”
src=”js/BildPopUp.js”></script>

and to put this above the photographs

<a title=”Image” alt=”Image”
href=”javascript:popImage(‘Image.jpg’,’Image.jpg’)”><img border=’0′
src=’Image.jpg’ width=”160″ height=”210″></a>

Sorry to rabbit on so much.
Thanks for any suggestions.

@Mr_JJan 21.2008 — Give this a try

[CODE]<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE>Document Title</TITLE>

<script type="text/javascript">

image = ["pic1.jpg","pic2.jpg","pic3.jpg","pic4.jpg"]

function showImg(){
index = Math.floor(Math.random() * image.length)
document.rdm_img.src=image[index]
}

// add onload="showImg()" to the opening BODY tag

//-->
</script>

</HEAD>
<BODY onload="showImg()">

<img src="" name="rdm_img">


</BODY>
</HTML>[/CODE]

@smokeyoneauthorJan 22.2008 — Thanks for the help but no success yet. I wonder if I am inserting the code in the incorrect place.

I placed it directly beneath the document title.

Success!
