Thanks Rob - but how do you get the display in the position you want?

It's all done when you generate the script on that URL page that brelade
provided...you create the links there then copy the generated code and past
it into Publisher. Don't forget to upload the images when you publish to
your server.

David - hello again.

This is really good stuff but how do you link the image to the javacode.
I've cut & pasted the code to the top of my webpage - how do I link to the
image to get the slideshow to appear?

Brelade,

Thanks for posting back. That seems to be a great solution for people
looking for an embedded slide show.

David.

Thanks once again for your prompt reply.

I have taken your advice and Google for javascript slideshow code and
have
come acroos this site which is really easy to use and will allow you to
in
put your requirements from a menu rather than trying to change the
code.
CHECK IT OUT, it will also allow change size acorrding to the picture
size
which is good.

Also if interested he it is on my site, hope you like.

Hi brelade,

I have tried a lot of different javascript code snippets in Publisher
webs...some work, some don't. In general if you have to put something
in
the
Head section, I would move on to find one that doesn't require it,
because
the only way to put something in the Head section is to edit the
Publisher
code directly...you can't access the Head via a code fragment
insertion.
With that said, I have tested a number of snippets that said I had to
put
part of the code in the head, and I just inserted it into the body,
and
it
worked just fine. Like I said, sometimes it works...sometimes it
doesn't...which means trial and terror until you find one that you can
figure out...and get to work. If you google for 'javascript slideshow
code"
you will get a zillion possibilities to try.

I don't have time to test your example, but here is one that I have
tested
and does work in Publisher webs, but I am sure there are many others
that
work equally well, and perhaps offer more functionality:

area
with my pictures looping through on a small slide show
auotmatically, i
dont

I have found this site which i wish to include in to my site, but
other
than

If some one could explain how to insert the following code in to my
