I'd like to have several images of the farm rotate through on our web site's home page. What's the easiest way to make that happen using VSD? Couldn't find anything in the forum.

Wow, just what I was looking for. Just a few questions.

1. "put it in your root directory". Do you mean in the root of your system drive?

2. "add new folder in vsd". I assume you mean in the directory that your project files are kept. If so, does it matter where \files \files\downloads??? Or do you mean in the vsd directory under program files?

Eric, thanks for your help. If I can get past 1 and 2 above I may have more questions. Sorry for the basics. jquery is totally new for me.

1. VSD - "Add Files" - Click on "Root" - Click "Add Files" It's the white paper icon with the green + on it at the bottom. Browse to the jquery.js.
2. VSD - "Add Files" - Click on "Root" - Click on "Add a Folder" - Name your folder - Click on the new folder then click "Add Files" It's the white paper icon with the green + on it at the bottom. Browse to your images.

Thanks so much Eric, what a great resource you are providing us. I'll give that a try and let you know how it comes out. It will be awhile though, got some sheep to move to new pasture and a few other chores to take care of before I get to work on the website again.

Yes, Eric is an outstanding Ambassador. He is not as long winded as Jo Ann and has a companion site for illustration purposes. :lol:
