Can text be added to the DHTML slideshow script?

[Kalina]

I need to have the text to the right of the image change with each image. So when you click "Next" the text on the right will change to describe the image on the left.

You can see what I am trying to do here:

Any and all help is greatly appreciated.

Thank you,

That's a job for innerHTML and getElementById.

where you have:

<div name="photoslider">

use:

<div id="photodesc">

then, each place this appears:

document.images.photoslider.src=photos[which]

follow it on the next line with:

document.getElementById('photodesc').innerHTML=desc[which]

This should all work because you have already created the array, desc[] which has the descriptions in it. If I've followed your code correctly, all you should have to mess with after doing the above is changing the actual descriptions' text.

Note: this solution has been corrected as per Kalina's astute observation.

Thanks for the help jscheuer1.

I've added your code in and it doesn't change the text yet, but doesn't cause error's either. I will work with this and see if I can get it going.

Thanks,

You're welcome, sorry about the capitalization error on my part, I've corrected it in my original post.
