Codezwiz >> Forums >> Javascript Help >> Inserting javascript banner code into html

I would like to have a picture for a background (1000px x 91px)

and have the banner (that i have made using the cz banner generator) on top of the background around two-thirds across

as in the header in this site

how do i position the javascript in the html to do so?

when i try to add the code to the html, the banner just shows up below the background picture

You will have to make a table with the background image as the table background then position your banner inside that table where you want it.

ive built a table and set the picture as background (td background="farout7.gif" width="1000" height="91" border="0" alt="")

then i added the banner script that i generated right below

and closed my td, tr, table statements

now my banner sits where i want it to

but now the background image disappears behind the banner

it just looks like 2 cells side by side with a white background behind the banner on the right side
and the background image is chopped in half on the left side

i also changed the 1000px to 100% (td background="farout7.gif" width="100%" height="91" border="0" alt="") same results

i would post my code, but the site keeps telling me the html code that i used is not allowed--can i send it to you to check out?

Hi turbo,
You could zip a text file and post that also a link to the page you are working on might help.

I havent applied my file to the site yet

the way the header is right now, is how i want it to look, but i can only flip 2 banners with it the way it is constructed right now
what i did in this header--i made all my banners with hotspots (in fireworks) and put each banner one after another by first inserting the first banner then inserting more banners by adding frames--once i got them to change, then i added a layer for the background. unfortunately, this only works with 2 banners. Any more than that, each banner loses the link that i gave it in the hotspot. In other words, when the banner changes, the link doesn't follow.

now, i want to change to javascript and use the banner generator in codezwiz to get the same result but with more than 2 banners and corresponding hyperlinks

heres what ive got so far...

Hi Turbo,

Well I checked out your script and it works fine for me, NO the the link that is being displayed in the status of browser doesn't change with the rotation of the ad but in all actualality the link its self is rotating with the banners. The problem lies in the mouse over handler, The script is telling the browser to display the links address of the banner that you moved mouse over.

Thats the catch, the script instant only happens once and that is right as the mouse moves over the given point. You can refresh the mouse over action by timing out the function that is controling it.

As it stands right now in the script the

"Banner_status()"

function is the one we want to refresh, so by adding

"setTimeout( "Banner_status()", 1000);"

to that function we tell the script to reload the mouse over every 1 seconds if the mouse is hovering over the banner.

I went ahead and created sum blank banners from here, and put it all to together so you could see how it works ( i actually created 2 different pages, diff btw the 2 is the second one I put the script in an external js file and just linked to it.)
