Question: Recommend a javascript for rotating images

Anybody got a good javascript for rotating a set of images on a webpage?

I get about a zillion different scripts to choose from when I Google for one, so I thought I would ask if anyone here has one they use/like/recommend.

I would recommend this one.

Just to be sure, do you mean "selecting an image at random when the page loads" or "swapping images every ## seconds"?

You could always start with A List Apart (ALA) and the article A Better Image Rotator.

I suppose I should add my reason for said recommendation: Basically, it offers a few different options and is versatile... so it should fit whatever it is you're trying to do.

The second option.

Here's the one I ended up with:

twiggy -- I looked at your link, but the instructions were not clear enough for an idiot like me.
