index.php code :

[PHP]
// This script randomly selects and displays images from the current directory
// It is a stripped-down version of the Automatic Image Rotator script by Dan P. Benjamin.

// Set image filename extensions
$extList = array();
$extList['gif'] = 'image/gif';
$extList['jpg'] = 'image/jpg';
$extList['jpeg'] = 'image/jpeg';
$extList['png'] = 'image/png';

// Get contents of current directory
$fileList = array();
$handle = opendir("./");
while ( false !== ( $file = readdir($handle) ) ) {
$file_info = pathinfo($file);
if (
isset( $extList[ strtolower( $file_info['extension'] ) ] )
) {
$fileList[] = $file;
}
}
closedir($handle);

if (count($fileList) > 0) {
$imageNumber = time() % count($fileList);
$img = $fileList[$imageNumber];
}

if ($img!=null) {
$imageInfo = pathinfo($img);
$contentType = 'Content-type: '.$extList[ $imageInfo['extension'] ];
header ($contentType);
readfile($img);
} else {
if ( function_exists('imagecreate') ) {
header ("Content-type: image/png");
$im = @imagecreate (100, 100)
or die ("Cannot initialize new GD image stream");
$background_color = imagecolorallocate ($im, 255, 255, 255);
$text_color = imagecolorallocate ($im, 0,0,0);
imagestring ($im, 2, 5, 5, "IMAGE ERROR", $text_color);
imagepng ($im);
imagedestroy($im);
}
}

Can you have more than 1 btw? I play on different servers, would prefer one for each if its possible. Just put that file in anything you want to rotate?
Wonder if it would work on magelo backgrounds...
Vex 15 years ago

I made a directory named "rotator.jpg" and loaded images into it, but it doesn't appear to be working. It may have something to do with the fact that I don't know what "upload the index.php to it" means. Is that important? What does it mean? Is it hard to do whatever it is?

Looks like when the website was upgraded, the link was removed from her post. I think the "save this file to your computer" had a link to the index.php file.
