I'm open to suggestions. I am building a site with about 150 small images that are all the same size and position in the document. There are two images to a page. Is it worth the investment of time to formulate a method to build them dynamically or manually?

I've been writng the pages manually and popping the images in sequence.

I'd be happy to hear any suggestions to be a little more efficient.

tnx

How about some serverside code to loop through the images and write them in?

Yes doing it server side and using a query string or something to keep track of the image id in the data base would be your best bet. If you do not want to lean a server side language then use css to do the layout in an external file and then have very simple html documents.

You may be able to create a slide show using Javascript. You can alter the source of the image using document.images["imageID"].src.

The only downside is that about 13% of users have Javascript disabled. Then all you need is a static HTML page with direct links to each image.

If you want help with a javascript slideshow, create a post in the Javascript forum.
