HTML Slideshow code that will run on Audrey?
The .asp code that was posted to make a digital picture frame requires a Windows 2000. Is there code that can be served by a Mac or a remote server?

I'm looking for a way to have Audrey work as a Picture Frame, serving the pics from my Mac or a remote server at my ISP. Ideas? Code?

You might be able to adapt the following:
http://www.canoma.com/audrey/slideshow.html

Check out the example HTML. It uses the Audrey browser and javascript to cycle thru the pitures. All you need to do is provide the pictures on the web server and the html..

I also posted an alternative way to do this in the epods message board some time ago. This is a bit easier to understand, but will take a little more work to implement..

I have downloaded slideshow.html and edited to call the pics 1.jpg, 2.jpg etc. I put the html file and tha jpegs's in the same folder, called slideshow. When I open it in my browser I get an empty square with a little red X in the middle. Ideas of what I did wrong?

If you placed a directory called slideshow in you html root directory, you need to make sure that your links to 1.jpg and 2.jpg are actually /slideshow/1.jpg etc.. Or, just move the html and jpg files to your top (root) html directory.

You will need to look in you web server config info to determine where your html root dir is.

Thanks! That did it.. I created a folder named Server and put the html file and a folder named Slideshow with the jpegs in the Server folder and it works! I do get a white border around the pics.

Try changing:
<img src="slideshow/Untitled-4.jpg" name='SlideShow' height=379>

to:
<img src="slideshow/Untitled-4.jpg" name='SlideShow' height=379 border=0>

I don't know of a way using client side scripting (such as javascript) to read a directory. Of course, that doesn't mean it can't be done.

If you happen to be running a webserver on one of your PCs, you can use perl or some other server side script to do it.

If you know any computer language, like perl, rexx, or maybe even applescript, you could write a program to read the directory of files and generate the appropriate html file to display them all. You won't need a server side script.
