My client wants some images on their site that rotate, to keep the site looking fresh.
I was going to use javascript but I dont like it and want to use PHP but unsure where to really start with a script like this.
Is it simple to build?

here is a script that i made as a sig rotator...it does exactly what you want done.
Notes:
1) Make sure you change the image directory in the script.
2) Make sure you use the php script as the image... <img src="banner_rotator.php"></img>
3) i havnt used it in a while, so im not sure if this is even the right script, but give it a try and see if it works.

<?php
$folder = './';
$extList = array();
$extList['gif'] = 'image/gif';
$extList['jpg'] = 'image/jpeg';
$extList['jpeg'] = 'image/jpeg';
$extList['png'] = 'image/png';
$img = null;
if (substr($folder,-1) != '/') {
$folder = $folder.'/';
}
if (isset($_GET['img'])) {
$imageInfo = pathinfo($_GET['img']);
if (
isset( $extList[ strtolower( $imageInfo['extension'] ) ] ) &&
file_exists( $folder.$imageInfo['basename'] )
) {
$img = $folder.$imageInfo['basename'];
}
} else {
$fileList = array();
$handle = opendir($folder);
while ( false !== ( $file = readdir($handle) ) ) {
$file_info = pathinfo($file);
if (
isset( $extList[ strtolower( $file_info['extension'] ) ] )
) {
$fileList[] = $file;
}
}
closedir($handle);
if (count($fileList) > 0) {
$imageNumber = time() % count($fileList);
$img = $folder.$fileList[$imageNumber];
}
}
if ($img!=null) {
$imageInfo = pathinfo($img);
$contentType = 'Content-type: '.$extList[ $imageInfo['extension'] ];
header ($contentType);
readfile($img);
} else {
if ( function_exists('imagecreate') ) {
header ("Content-type: image/png");
$im = @imagecreate (100, 100)
or die ("Cannot initialize new GD image stream");
$background_color = imagecolorallocate ($im, 255, 255, 255);
$text_color = imagecolorallocate ($im, 0,0,0);
imagestring ($im, 2, 5, 5, "IMAGE ERROR", $text_color);
imagepng ($im);
imagedestroy($im);
}
}
?>

Thanks, I take it this script will pull all images from a directory rather than me having to go in and manually type in each file name?

Nice script. I may use this once I develop one for one of my websites.
