Photo Slide Show in Table

[Millie]

I would like to place a two-photo slide show (alternating the photos) in a
table on the home page of our church web site, where the present single
photo is (excuse the grammar).. www.saintmatthewsumc.org I have found
javascript to do this but do not know where to put it if it is to be in a
table.. OR is there a program that I could do this in (I use both PSP and
PI and have PowerPoint) and then save that as a web page and insert it in
the table? ... Millie

For a slide show you would probably want to stay with javascript or flash. PP would not be supported in all browsers

For the Java Script you have, it really depends on how the script is written, so it would be hard to tell you without seeing it

For example this script requires code in the heading and then code in the table / cell where you want the slideshow to appear. http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex14/pixelate.ht

This script would just be placed in the body of the page where you want it to appear
http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex14/fadeinslideshow.ht

In order to insert the code, you would open your FP web and page it will reside on. Since this is your home page it would be your index file. Place your cursor in the cell you want the slide show to reside, then go to html view and paste the code

Once the script is in, you need to modify the image files and their pathways to point to your images. Once that is done go to File > Preview in Browser and test it

Thanks. That is what I wanted to know. I knew I needed to edit paths where
my photos are but all the scripts I have say place the html code in the head
and I did not quite understand how to put code in so it would actually be
in the right place in that table and therefore positioned correctly.

I will check out the fadeinslideshow.htm. I got the others from dynamic
drive but do not think I have that one. I copied and pasted them into an Azz
file card for later use so I will have to check that out.... Millie
