Hi,

I would like to ask any html/javascript masters out there if they know of a good source code with which I could embed an alternating message text box in my iweb site using the HTML snippet widget.

I prefer not to have a normal marquee, but rather alternating text, and if possible with customizable color and shape, etc.

A million thanks!

What I do

Best I can offer is the following which can be seen @
www.MississippiRollerGirls.com/home/html/MSRG/Home.html

Notice the sponsor window, hit refresh and a new sponsor pops up... I copied this code from I don't know where but it works for this; I'd like a truly random method myself; for instance if someone empties their cache every session, they will see the same image on next visit; I would like someway for it to be on 'shuffle'
