image question

[ace2109]

Guys how can i automatically change an image without refreshing the whole page?

Basically what i want is when someone visits the site im working on, down the right hand side will be an image that i want to refresh every 3 -5 seconds but without the person refreshing the whole page.

hope you can help

any knowledge of ajax, JavaScript, jquery, or php?

if you want it to just change with no effects, then ajax and php needed,

if you want it to fade between each image change then something like jquey will do the job. something like this i have used before, but you'll need a little experience with javascript.

You could use jQuery's AJAX + its timer plugin to update the image div:
