Photo Gallery-ATUOMATIC Slide Show?

[Smart-Alex]

I am trying to avoid Flash but I want a slide show with the pictures
changing every two seconds. I had hoped to use the FP2003 Gallery but,
unless I've missed something, you have to change the photos manually. I
assume there is no way to go "automatic".

The OTHER option..I thought...was to use Power Point...but, would the viewer
have to have Power Point installed to see it.

Suggestions?....

Use of PowerPoint would require either PowerPoint of the
viewer. Down load the viewer here:

Perhaps the best way, if you don't have too many
pictures, is to place each photo on its own html page.
Then in the Head section of the code on each picture
page, you do a redirect with this code:

<meta http-equiv="Refresh"
content="2;URL=yourpicturepage3.htm">

This code will instruct the page to go to the next
picture page called "yourpicturepage3.htm" On that page
you'll change this page name to the next picture page.
Each page with this code will automatically present the
next page.

The content="2 tells the page how long to pause before
going to the next page, in this case, about 2 seconds.

AHA!! I like that solution.

Alex,
there's a nice free automatic slide show maker if you search for "xp
powertoys". you'll find it there. I think it's called html slide show
maker. it's also got some very interesting JavaScript in it too.
