    Default Need advice (very basic) on conveyor belt script

    I am trying to use the conveyor belt slide show script. But as I am new to this and also incredibly thick, I appear to be stymied at the part of editing the images.

    leftrightslide[0]='<a href="http://"><img src="dynamicbook1.gif" border=1></a>'

    1.<a href="http:// is this where I put the link in for where the image is linked to?

    2. "><img src="dynamicbook1.gif" border=1></a>' Image source, is this the image file in the folder on the web host?

    I have tried using that but nothing appears to happen (no images, just place holders, are shown when I preview the site).

    3. Do I have to upload the script to the site before it will be seen to work?

    Thanks for your time and understanding.

    Signed incredibly thick, but trying not to be!

    The "<a href=" part is for those cases where you want the image to lead to another page/site. eg the user puts their mouse on a certain image and uses the left click button, the user is redirected to the page you enter in this. eg <a href="http://www.dynamicdrive.com"> will take the person to the dynamic drive site

    The '<img src=' is the name and location of the images you want to display. If the image is in the same directort then <img src="myimage.jpg"> will work. If it is in subdirectory images then <img src="images/myimage.jpg"> will work, etc.

    This is HTML and javascript so should work on your local pc.
