HTML - Random Image Generator
Hello,
I'm sure the subject about random generators must have been asked a billion times before, but I can't seem to find an answer for my set up. Basically I have a style.css sheet which defines some images like this: #gallery .pic01 { background: url('images/gallery_images/pic_01.jpg') no-repeat; width: 205px Then in my html I have a list of these images like this <div id="gallery"> <ul> <li class="pic01"></li> <li class="pic02"></li> <li class="pic03"></li> </ul> What I'd like to do is have the pictures choosen randomly so that each time the page loads you get a different set of pictures. Is this possible. Please forgive me if this is easy peasy to do - I'm a real html thicky! Similar TutorialsI have this code below, and i would like it to randomly place 2 X's in any of the boxes, and each time i refresh the page the X's could end up in any of them, any idea how to do it? Thanks Dr Ben HTML Code: <html> <head><title></title></head> <body> <form name="placeships" action="board.php" method="post"> <table> <tr> <td align="center" bgcolor="black"><input type="text" id="1" class="hide" name="1" value="" size="2"> </td> <td align="center" bgcolor="black"><input type="text" id="2" class="hide" name="2" value="" size="2"> </td> <td align="center" bgcolor="black"><input type="text" id="3" class="hide" name="3" value="" size="2"> </td> <td align="center" bgcolor="black"><input type="text" id="4" class="hide" name="4" value="" size="2"> </td> </tr> <tr> </tr> <input value="submit" name="submit" type="submit"> </form> </body> </html> Say I have 10+ 468x60 banners I was wondering if there is anyway of having them show up randomly in one spot when you refresh the page. For example here is an ad I'm using: <script type="text/javascript" language="javascript" src="http://www.tkqlhce.com/placeholder-2762512?target=_blank&mouseover=N"></script> I know there is a way to random images but how do you randomize scripts? I want to create a lotto system on my vbulletin forum..I have designed .gif graphics for each ball 1-49. I need a script ( whether java or html ) to randomly select 6 numbers without selecting the same number twice...I have saved the balls as smilies, so need the results to show lb1 lb2 lb3 etc... I hope you understand what I mean... Any help would be very much appreciated Hey All, I would like to have a site similar to lol.com, in which the page changes upon every visit. I have been researching and i have found this : http://baremetal.com/gadgets/sequence.html It looks very cool, however i can't implement this, as i NEED to have their hosting, Gay! Anybody know of a random script thing i could use? I would be very gracious, I found a dhtml script, however it was not good enough, somebody could eaisily copy the source, which they wouldn't of been able to had they done the above URL^ Thanks all! Hi there, I have created a site that can be viewed at www.prestigeinteractive.com/legacy2 On this site I have utilized a basic two column design with both a header and a footer. You may need to look at the first page to know what i am talking about. Upon creating the site I wanted to make the athletes on the page extend beyond the borders of the site's wrapper. In order to do that and maintain reasonable filesizes, I opted to splice the images. I used a jpeg for the large part within the wrapper, and used a png in a absolute positioned div for the parts that are to extend beyond the site's wrapper/container (needed a transparent image to display the border and site's background properly). The friend I am making the site for asked if I could set it up so that there can be a number of images that randomly load when a user enters the home page. I am not sure it that is possible using the format I've implemented (2 images properly aligned). Can this be done? I've done it before with single images within a div tag, but not two that need specific coordinates to appear aligned correctly. If "yes this can be done", could someone kindly point me in the right direction to find a tutorial on this. If not, I'd appreciate knowing this as well, as I'll need to come up with an alternative plan. Thank you for your time, G Okay... Here is what I'm trying to do...and not really sure as an HTML novice where to even start. I have something called a 'blogwall' on my site, it's url is he http://www.weusecoupons.com/index.php?pageid=blogroll What I would like to do, is on the main page: www.weusecoupons.com Have a ONE of the 125x125 buttons appear randomly. Is this a simple thing? All images are hosted locally!! Thanks for your help. How would i show a random image? When people come onto my site, i want the header to be random out of about, 6 different ones. When you refresh the page, it changes the image. (for more explaingin, ha) How would i go about doing this? Hello everyone, I'm new here and currently reaquainted with HTML as I'm trying to help out a friend with his website. I am trying to randomize a background image in a table and I can't seem to get anything to work. I have searched up and down this forum and others, have tried several scripts that seem to work for others, and I'm still at square one. I most recently tried a script I found here on this forum with no success. Here is my code... Code: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <head> ... ... <script type="text/javascript"> <!-- var pic=new Array(); pic[0]="img/home_back1.jpg"; pic[1]="img/home_back2.jpg"; pic[2]="img/home_back3.jpg"; var num=Math.floor(Math.random()*pic.length); window.onload=function() { document.getElementById('wrapper').style.backgroundImage='url('+pic[num]+')'; } //--> </script> </head> <table id="wrapper" width="955" height="600" align="center" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" > ... ... ... </table> </body> </html> If anyone has any insight as to what I may be doing wrong or how I can fix this it would be much appreciated as I'm pulling my hair out trying to get this to work. Thanks! Unclejunebug Hello, I'm building a print website and I'm not much of a coder. I was wondering what it would take to create one of those business card creators you see at http://www.vistaprint.com/premium-bu...lery.aspx?pg=1 or overnightprints.com. I would post this in the tutorials section, but I don't have access yet, I think it's because I'm new here. Any help would be greatly appreciated, I just want to be led in the right direction. Thank you guys. Hi All, I'm trying to create an easy to use email signature generator for my company. Essentially I want to use a form with name, position, phone number, etc and click a button, displaying the information in the correct styling in another panel that can be copy and pasted into outlook. I've attempted using javascript but haven't had much luck. Thanks. Does anyone know of a font face generator that can convert a TTF or OTF font file into the 4 formats (woff, svg, eot, ttf), that's not font squirrel? That site only supports English fonts with a very low file size limit, and can't convert any foreign fonts. Already tried http://onlinefontconverter.com as well, doesn't work either as I waited like an hour then the server simply deleted my uploads without so much as an error pop-up lol, and now the website is not responding. This is for usage in CSS using the @font-face function. Thanks. Hey there! Is it possible to have a random GIF file loaded each time you open the site? For example if you open the page now, an animated GIF will load to advertise x and when you go to the same page later, an ad will load to advertise y. Thanks in advance! I Hello everyone. Sorry for appearing to be another person to register with "vitally important question" and then probably never be seen again, but I think I'll be using this site to learn as much as I can about HTML. Anyway, my question is about HTML, but not for a website. It's for an iPhone widget. I don't want to advertise for any other forums or anything, but there is currently a tweak in development that allows for windows phone 7 live tiles on an iPhone. They use HTML code and as you can tell, I'm not a coder. There is a slideshow widget available that displays a random picture from a set location. I'm very new to HTML, but I have figured out quite a bit by changing a value and having a look at what it did. There is one thing that has me completely stumped though and this is what I would like to know. In the following code, it has the [Math.floor(math.random() bit. I've tried to add a 1 in the brackets, I've tried changin the random to no and false, I've tried just removing the line and I still can't get it. <html> <head> <meta name="viewport" content="width=238, user-scalable=no" /> <script> window.onload = onLoad; var array = "101|102|103|104|105|106|107|108|109|110|111|112|113|114|115|116|117|118|119|120|121|122|123|124".sp lit("|"); function onLoad(){ document.getElementById("show").src = array[Math.floor(Math.random()*array.length)] + ".png"; setTimeout(onLoad,1*200); } </script> </head> <body> <img src = "overlay.png" style = "position:absolute;top:0px;left:0px;z-index:1;"/> <img id ="show" style="position:absolute;top:-0px;left:0px;width:238px" /> </body> </html> What I want is for it to cycle through all the images in order. Any help would be greatly appreciated. THanks. on the mainpage of my site, i have a enter button, however I have 4 different sites. I want when you click enter, it brings you to 1 of the 4 at random each time... how would i go about that? thanksss. its much appreciated to whoever trys or can help. Hey all. Can anyone help? I want to make a feature of my site that if you follow a broken link or navigate to a page that doesnt exist, you will get one of 3 different 404 pages. My hosting allows for one catch - all error page, but I was wondering if theres a function in html that redirects immediately to aother page. Thanks in advance I am an Admin for a PC gaming clan ( |ESF| ), and we have several game servers. Our goal is to have a random "server of the day" widget on the main page of the site. Here is what we need it to do: > Show the same server for all visitors to the page > Show the same server for a 24 hour period, say from 12am - 11:59pm > Have the code editable in case we change/add/remove a server I have some experience in Vb6 and Vb.Net, but not much HTML. I would assume the code would be something similar to: Dim SOTD As New String (Server of the Day) "Server List" Dim s1 As New String (Server 1) Dim s2 As New String (Server 2) Dim s3 As New String (Server 3) If TimeOfDay Is 12:00am Then Show SOTD(Random Server from List) Until TimeOfDay Is 11:59pm End If I know that isn't close to HTML, but it should help get the overall point across. Any help to get us closer to this goal is MUCH appreciated. If I wasn't specific enough with the above information, please let me know what else you need to know. It's very late and I'm super tired. Thank you in advance. Maybe someone here can shed some light on this for me. I am trying to create a site which displays 12 random questions from a pool of a few hundred. A visitor will come to the site, answer the questions and see the results, much like a poll but they will be randomly generated. I am lost as to where to start on this. I tried a poll type approach but that was not the answer. Those were fixed questions and the polls were powered by other sites. Anyone have ideas or tips on how I can start on this? I used this code here but it doesnt seem to work for GoogleChrome browser well, as it did for the others. Is there a code that will work for all the browsers? HTML Code: <html> <head> <script language="javascript"> function randomBackground() { var myImages = Array(); myImages[0] = 'xxx.jpg'; myImages[1] = 'xxx.jpg'; myRandomNumber = Math.floor(Math.random()*myImages.length); document.body.style.backgroundImage = 'URL('+myImages[myRandomNumber]+')'; } </script> <style type="text/css"> body { background-attachment: fixed; background-repeat: no-repeat; } </style> </head> <body onload="randomBackground();"></body> |
