Can someone give me the correct code? thanks alot

Hi logicuk

I'm looking at doing a rotating banner which auto rotates without refreshes, works simply by showing a banner for so many seconds then moving onto the next one, Been working on my site for 18hrs no probs http://www.ukbusinesslive.co.uk/forum

Only 4 test banners at the moment, i think i have it set for about 8 seconds, That what you can show more ads and increase impressions for paid advertisers or if you have an affiliate account, more chances of a click through.

Take a look and let me know what you think, is a small easy hack to add, I'll email you the link later when i release it in the mod forums ;)

To answer your question you need to use a bit of html code like this for flash banners

Code:

 <object 

type="application/x-shockwave-flash"

data="images/your-banner.swf"

width="468" height="60">

<param name="banner" value="http://www.domain.com/forums/banners/aqua.swf" />

<param name="menu" value="false" />

<param name="quality" value="autohigh" />

</object>

I think thats how its done, you need to try and use this within your banner code :erm:

Not sure 100% but you could try this

Code:

$random_banner[4] = '<object 

type="application/x-shockwave-flash"

data="images/your-banner.swf"

width="468" height="60">

<param name="banner" value="images/your-banner.swf" />

<param name="menu" value="false" />

<param name="quality" value="autohigh" /> 

</object></a>';
