Hi all, here's a tuffy problem that I need some help with.
I have a web site where I use a database to query and then display a directory of banners and descriptions. The banners are from other web sites, and are remotely called.
My problem:
When ever the directory page loads it *should* display banners (the banner code is just HTML stored in a field in our database) in the directory listing.
HOWEVER......sometimes it works and sometimes it doesnt. I am wondering if it is possible that -SOMEONE- out there can give me a hand in designing some javascript code that would DO THE FOLLOWING...
my wishlist:
I need some javascript code that will keep the INTERNET connection alive enough to eventually load the Banner and HTML code so that the banners would all eventuall load and display properly in our directory listing.
So my idea was that javascript mixed with the html code will TRY 10 TIMES to remotely call the banners, until failure.
IS THIS POSSIBLE?
Some background info: I am using Coldfusion 5.0 as the web language.
Other things I have tryed: I have tryed moving the banner graphic to my server locally, and adjusting the code too, but this does not work either... :(
Anyone wanna take a crack at this?
Thanx in advance
