#15197 — Sequential JPGs?

   Call me ignorant.
   How does one go about showing a sequence of JPG pictures with a timed 
interval, then repeating "forever" (at least as long as one is on that 
page)?
   Thanks.

You use Javascript.

Search the web for the numerous examples via Google.

Search this NG's archive for more.

Evern better, learn yourself some Javascript.

Do NOT use jQuery.

Do not ask us to do your homework.

Be welcome to come back if there are no hints in any of these.

btw, this NG is not a paid helpdesk, and while many regulars are eager to 
help, you should show you have tried to do your homework yourself, and show 
where in your code you get stuck.

Other peoples code you find on the web should not be used for blind 
implementation, but are fine for learning and for understanding.

   What does Radio Télévision Belge Francophone (RTBF) have to do with this?

While I receive only the 3 Belgian [Flemish] channels on my glasfiber 
connection, [in French just TV5monde and Arte] and RTBF is wellknown to me, 
RTBF is a primarily a "bloody" common usenet abbreviation.

   If it was "well known", why did the Baby Bird (Goo Gull) NOT give the 
meaning you appear to allude to?

Because it's not common at all. This is the first time I've seen it in
15 years of reading and posting to Usenet. Google finds a whopping total
of seven pages with the meaning Evertjan suggests.

Much more common is "RTFFAQ", with ~37.000 Google results.

Some people like to use obscure acronyms. It gives them a feeling of
superiority when others can't figure out what they mean.

What nonsense, how would you know?

Did you do research on the subject, or are you trying to explain that not 
figuring out what another means gives you an inferiority complex?

Not that I know that, I am just trying to to understand your logic.

Be assured that some people are not led by such -iorities,
but simply enjoy life and javascript.

Not a helpful attitude.  It is the quality of the hits that matters, not
the mere quantity.

One gets better results, on the average, with

Indeed, John, but a NG is not a paid or unpaid helpdesk.

> It is the quality of the hits that matters, not

Not if the OP states:
"I have done some searching and have found no examples."

Pointing out that there are 273 hits should inform the OP that he did not 
even did "some searching". That might be helpful in itself.

> One gets better results, on the average, with

Not to diminish your wide expertise, sorcerer John-Merlyn, but it is more 
helpful to learn a sorcerer apprentice to view the total availability when 
searching, and let him make his one mistakes.

You should read Section 1.2 of the newsgroup FAQ, "What questions are
on-topic for comp.lang.javascript?", and see what is in it.

You should read Section 1.3 of the newsgroup FAQ, "What should I do
before posting to comp.lang.javascript?", and see what is not in it.

You should read Section 1.4 of the newsgroup FAQ.

Questions from those with little idea of what they are doing are a
fertile source of interesting newsgroup threads; I expect GW would
agree.  Those who do not like a question, and have nothing useful to
answer, should refrain from answering.



Unless a searcher is adept at searching, or already knows the answer, he
is nowadays extremely likely to get far too many hits to look through,
with no particular reason to believe that the first hits shown are
relevant, or that the first relevant ones are good.  The initial advice
given here may be little better; but bad advice in News is soon
criticised in the light of current knowledge.

     Sure it is.  And some people are not suited for it.  You might be
one of them.

     Oh?  Is that me?

     Yes, I do agree.  I have no problem with questions like that
provided the person is willing to do his work.  He may have to read
some links, practice a bit, etc. and then ask more directed questions
later.  I have asked many questions, but I have also done a lot of
searching, reading, and experimenting myself.

     I most definitely agree with "Those who do not like a question,
and have nothing useful to answer, should refrain from answering." For
one thing, it can appear to the casual observer that the question has
been answered when in fact, it has not.

     Quite.  There is a lot of noise on the Web.  This makes it all
too easy to drown in data.  Sometimes, I post a basic question asking
for some orientation.  A basic example is sometimes all it takes to
get me moving forward whereas without that example, I would be unable
to proceed.  It might still be difficult, but at least I now have some
orientation and can evaluate other data more easily.

     Vocabulary is a big issue.  If you do not know that something
exists or what it is called, it is hard to search the Web for it.
Getting that vocabulary from those who already know can be a big help.

Sincerely,

Gene Wirchenko
