Forgive me I didnt read all 10 pages.

Im trying to use this to rotate the banner of my forum, not for ads. Anywho its installed an working. Except that it added a small space/break under my banner? Is there any way to fix?

Here is my header.

<!-- logo -->
<a name="top"></a>
<table border="0" width="$stylevar[outertablewidth]" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" align="center">
<tr>
	<td align="$stylevar[left]"><a href="$vboptions[forumhome].php$session[sessionurl_q]">$GLOBALS[bannerads]</a></td>
	<td align="$stylevar[right]">
	</td>
</tr>
</table>
<!-- /logo -->

<!-- content table -->
$spacer_open

$_phpinclude_output

Here is my header : As I have put in the code.. Does this look correct?? Right now I have a JPG file in the header space Would like banner to go under that..

<!-- logo -->
<a name="top"></a>
<table border="0" width="$stylevar[outertablewidth]" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" align="center">
<tr>
	<td align="$stylevar[left]"><a href="$vboptions[forumhome].php$session[sessionurl_q]"><img src="$stylevar[titleimage]" border="0" alt="$vboptions[bbtitle]" /></a></td>
	<td align="$stylevar[right]">
		$GLOBALS[banneradstwo] 
	</td>
</tr>
</table>
<!-- /logo -->

<!-- content table -->
$spacer_open

$_phpinclude_output

And here is the code I put in for first banner I want.. but nothing changes on the site at all.

I am very very new to this & I know I am just missing something simple.. Any help would be greatly appreciated..

Anyone?

The extra space under your banner may be within the code of this mob. I recall editing code to remove that space when I installed it.

Do you know what code to remove?

[NFLfbJunkie]

I have replaced the vBulletin logo with this Banner Rotator by removing

<!-- logo -->
<a name="top"></a>
<table border="0" width="$stylevar[outertablewidth]" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" align="center">
<tr>
	<td align="$stylevar[left]"><a href="$vboptions[forumhome].php$session[sessionurl_q]"><img src="$stylevar[titleimage]" border="0" alt="$vboptions[bbtitle]" /></a></td>
	<td align="$stylevar[right]">
		&nbsp;
	</td>
</tr>
</table>
<!-- /logo -->

Thus leaving me with:

$GLOBALS[bannerads]

<!-- content table -->
$spacer_open

$_phpinclude_output

Was this okay to do? The Banner shows up okay, but how do I center it?

[BudLeiser]

This script is nice, but I use alot of small banners.

Can this be adapted to offer a variable # of sets and variable number o banners per set?
(I'm looking for 14+ sets, 3-10 banners each, so would be easier I can set variables on how many sets and how many banners)

[Louise12]

I know this has been asked bfore, but there was no answer.

Can this be made to automatically rotate? Like every 5 seconds or so?

Thanks in advance.

I'm having trouble finding out where I need to place the code in my "header" for it to display correctly. I'm using a couple of "styles" that are a little confusing.

The site is www.turbo-owners.com and I would like it to appear on the right side across from the 'Turbo Owners" logo... I have 2 styles (light and dark) and have attached the header contents of each

style1 = light
style2 = dark

If anyone could help me out that would be appreciated.

Also, is there the possibility of having slots for more than 10 banner ads?
