Hi all,

I am trying to make a slideshow that is populated by a database using ASP 
and Javascript. I want to use some sort of array for varImages so that the 
name of the images will be populated by varImages: 

<% while not oRs.EOF %>

Pic[0] = '<%= varImages%>'
Pic[1] = '<%= varImages%>'
Pic[2] = '<%= varImages%>'
Pic[3] = '<%= varImages%>'
Pic[4] = '<%= varImages%>'

<%	
   oRs.MoveNext
		wend
%> 


Here is what I have so far:

----------------------------------------------------------------------

<%
'Declare all local variables
dim conn
dim strconn
dim strSQL
dim oRs
dim varImages

strSQL = ""
strconn = "DRIVER=Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb);DBQ=" & Server.MapPath
("database/slideshow.mdb")

strSQL = "SELECT * FROM images ORDER BY ID"

'Set connection object 
set conn = server.createobject("adodb.connection")
conn.open strconn
'Use the execute method of the connection object the insert the record
SET oRs = conn.execute(strSQL)

varImages = oRs.Fields("imageName")

%>

<script>
Set slideShowSpeed (milliseconds)
var slideShowSpeed = 5000

var crossFadeDuration = 3

var Pic = new Array() 

<% while not oRs.EOF %>

Pic[0] = '<%= varImages%>'
Pic[1] = '<%= varImages%>'
Pic[2] = '<%= varImages%>'
Pic[3] = '<%= varImages%>'
Pic[4] = '<%= varImages%>'

<%	
   oRs.MoveNext
		wend
%> 

var t
var j = 0
var p = Pic.length

var preLoad = new Array()
for (i = 0; i < p; i++){
   preLoad[i] = new Image()
   preLoad[i].src = Pic[i]
}

function runSlideShow(){
   if (document.all){
      document.images.SlideShow.style.filter="blendTrans(duration=2)"
      document.images.SlideShow.style.filter="blendTrans
(duration=crossFadeDuration)"
      document.images.SlideShow.filters.blendTrans.Apply()      
   }
   document.images.SlideShow.src = preLoad[j].src
   if (document.all){
      document.images.SlideShow.filters.blendTrans.Play()
   }
   j = j + 1
   if (j > (p-1)) j=0
   t = setTimeout('runSlideShow()', slideShowSpeed)
}
</script>



*body tag calls onload*

here is what is in the body:

<img src="<%= varImages%>" name='SlideShow' width="300" height="225" 
border="0" alt="">

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Am I on the right track ?????


thanks ahead of time
