Default How to make simple banner rotation?

In VBulletin3 I did something like this:

global_start plugin:
PHP Code:
$fr_bannerId mt_rand(1,6);
$fr_bannerURL "http://www.gsmforum.ru/images/ownpictures/"$fr_bannerId .'.swf'
ad_header_logo template
HTML Code:
<object width="500" height="90">
<param name="movie" value="$fr_bannerURL">
<embed src="$fr_bannerURL" width="500" height="90">
</embed>
</object>

But in VB4 it no longer works, of course. Moreover,

class_bootstrap.php, Line 289
PHP Code:
// advertising location setup
$ad_location['ad_header_logo'] = vB_Template::create('ad_header_logo')->render(); 
It seems, now the contents of advertisement templates can't be dynamically generated because template is rendered automatically and there is no way to insert vB_Template::register() call.

Can someone suggest an easy way to have simple banner rotation inside advertisement templates like I did in VB3, but in VB4?
