Blending Image Slideshow Script
http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex14/image4.htm

Greetings all. I am very much a js newbie, and have a problem that others may be able to solve with very little effort.

I am using the Blending image Slideshow Script on my site. I need to be able to change the

newwindow

value according to the image being displayed. So in some cases I would like to open the link in a new window, in others i would like the link to open in the current window.

I thought that simply setting the

newwindow

value as an array:

var newwindow=new Array("0", "1")

would work, but have found Im off base.

I did some forum searching and didnt see any similar threads...any help would be greatly appreicated.

In other words, you're looking for selective link targeting for each image within the slideshow. Sure, simply replace the script of code 1 with the below instead:

<script language="JavaScript1.1">
<!--

//specify interval between slide (in mili seconds)
var slidespeed=3000

//specify images
var slideimages=new Array("test.gif","image2.gif","image3.gif")

//specify link target for each image
var linktargets=new Array("", "_new", "_new")

//specify corresponding links
var slidelinks=new Array("http://www.google.com","http://yahoo.com","http://www.cnn.com")


var imageholder=new Array()
var ie=document.all
for (i=0;i<slideimages.length;i++){
imageholder[i]=new Image()
imageholder[i].src=slideimages[i]
}

function gotoshow(){
if (linktargets[whichlink]!="")
window.open(slidelinks[whichlink], linktargets[whichlink])
else
window.location=slidelinks[whichlink]
}

//-->
</script>

Customize "var linktargets".

Worked like a charm. Thanks so much for your help.
