[thelist] Rotating images with ASP

You would be better off having the HTML page select the image and then
write the HTML to call whatever image. Eg -

<%
Select rndno
Case "1"
	response.write ("<img src='1.gif'>")
Case "2"
	response.write ("<img src='2.gif'>")
End select
%>

This has several advantages -

* Faster execution server-side
* Only two calls to the server
* Smaller log files

If you *really* need to have the page static then you could use
javascript.
