Animated BMP?
-
Hi all, I know little about HTML and the like so I really need your help. I have a bunch of bmp files named file1.bmp, file2.bmp etc Is there any way I can show them in a HTML file so they would appear like an animated gif? Basically show file1.bmp, wait a bit, show file2.bmp on top of file1.bmp etc... Can this be done, 3rd party freeware tool would be fine, or do I have to build my own ocx control? Thanks. .Henrik --- Any fool can write code that a computer can understand. Good programmers write code that humans can understand.

I believe that you can use the AdRotator object in ASP for this. It just takes a little bit of VBScript added to your HTML page...

I would do a small JavaScript function to handle this... I would initially load the first 2-3 pics and then for each one that I show I would start donwloading another one in order for the slide show to be fast... Try using the setTimeout, setInterval functions in JavaScript... This will help you handle the timing... Try using an aray or an object to store the Images that you download... keep a numbered naming on your images so you will know which one is to be downloaded next... The good thing about this is that you could potentially use transistions between your images... theJazzyBrain Wise is he who asks good questions, not he who gives good answers
