are all the products going to be in just one flash file/animation or a different product will be displayed each time the page is opened or refreshed?

@aphoe
Different products will be displayed whenever the pages are refreshed. Now, the adverts are 20 now and yet the flash script is not yet ready. Pls, if you've got a good link, can you help me out with it.

Here is a quite easy to use random flash script that i guess you should be able to implement.
Step 1
Copy the code into a text file and save as randomflash.php or give any name of your choice.

Step 2
Create a folder and place your flash files inside the folder. eg flash/random

Note that all the flash animations inside this folder will be random selected upon every refresh or reload of the page.

Step 3
Use the following serverside include code to call the randomflash.php

// <?php require_once('randomflash.php'); ?>


<?php
//***************EDIT FROM HERE*********************
//Any directory name should end by the trailing "/"
$your_dirname="random/flash/";//replace the "path to your flash directory /" by the name
// of the directory where you image files are placed, note that the trailing "/" is mandatory

//You can change this if you want but it is not mendatory
$your_alt_tag="ALT TAGS GO HERE ";// You may place image alt tags incase i put images in the directory

//

function displayaaphprandomimage($dirname, $alt){
$dirhandle = opendir($dirname);
while (false !== ($file = readdir($dirhandle))) {
if ($file != "." && $file != ", " && !@is_dir($file) ) {
$filelist[] = $file;
}
}
closedir($dirhandle);

if(sizeof($filelist) ==0) {
echo "No file was found in the directory!";
exit;
}

srand((double)microtime()*1000000);
$picnum = @mt_rand(0, sizeof($filelist) - 1);
$imageName=$dirname.$filelist[$picnum];
$imageSize = getimagesize($imageName);

if($imageSize[2]==4 || eregi(".swf$", $imageName) ) {
$result="\n<object classid=\"clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000\" codebase=\"http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,29,0\" ".$imageSize[3].">";
$result .="\n<param name=\"movie\" value=\"".$imageName ."\">";
$result .="\n<param name=\"quality\" value=\"high\">";
$result .="\n<embed src=\"".$imageName ."\" quality=\"high\" pluginspage=\"http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer\" type=\"application/x-shockwave-flash\" ".$imageSize[3]. "></embed></object>";
} else $result="\n<img src=\"".$imageName ."\" ". $imageSize[3] ."alt=\"". $alt. "\">";

return $result;

}
?>
<?php echo displayaaphprandomimage($your_dirname, $your_alt_tag);?>

@tundewoods

nice work!! but i have a question:

are u saying that the "clsid" and all other variables in the flash code can remain de same? so all u need to change is the "src" of the flash file?

If yes, then it means u can actually hook yur code to a Mysql/php script.
Re: Flash Advert Rotator Script Needed. by tundewoods(m): 10:49am On Mar 17, 2008
@ Nduaj
All the defined variables names are expected to remain the same including the clsid parameter that defines your flash movie in case the random file selected is a flash animation.

Bear in mind that the script will pick both flash movies and image files that are in a specific defined directory on your web server.

The script is a random file picker and may not necessary need to be plugged into a mysql database.
