Simplest banner/quotes/links rotator !! How to do it for vB4??

[valdet]

Thank you very much Lynne,

I had to add a little bit more and actually change the plugin code to a simpler version.

Inside the plugin I had to create a third variable $new_banners and only pre-registered that variable within template and ran it through parse_templates hook

$random_number = mt_rand(1, 5);

$random_banner[1] = '<img src="path/to/banner1.gif" alt="" border="0" />';
$random_banner[2] = '<img src="path/to/banner2.gif" alt="" border="0" />';
$random_banner[3] = '<img src="path/to/banner3.gif" alt="" border="0" />';
$random_banner[4] = '<img src="path/to/banner4.gif" alt="" border="0" />';
$random_banner[5] = '<img src="path/to/banner5.gif" alt="" border="0" />';

$new_banners = $random_banner[$random_number];

vB_Template:reRegister('navbar',array('new_banne rs' => $new_banners));

To make it work, I just dropped this code {vb:raw new_banners} on the template and now it works just as before under vB3.x.

I appreciate your help and borbole for helping me through this.

I hope other users find this little experience useful in their sites.
