PHP or JavaScript?

[asa]

Hi,

This is the best website I know: www.españaescultura.es
The changing images on their homepage! Is that PHP (loop) or JavaScript? Is it very difficult to design that?

Asa,

They're using the jQuery Infinite Carousel plugin:

I don´t understand it! Do I have to use JavaScript with this plug-in? Im a starter, so might this be too difficult for me? And can I use this plug in on my Mac?

It's a jQuery plugin (yes, it's JavaScript). My guess is that it's going to be too difficult for you. Your Mac has nothing to do with it.

Ok, thanks!

I need to use php to determine whether or not to call the function and to pass it arguments. This is what I tried:
php:
echo "<Script language='javascript'>";
echo "youwin(".count.");";
echo "</Script>";

The javascript function is:
function youwin(num)
{
alert("You win!! You are the "+num+"th winner");
return true;
}

For some reason the javascript function is not being executed. Any advice?
Thanks!

echo "<Script language='javascript'>";
echo "youwin(".count.");";
echo "</Script>";

You're missing PHP's dollar sign for the variable? $count

And have you included the javascript file or function in the surce code?

If you're using FF, you have a menue option "web developer" -> "Error console".. load the page and see if you get any JS errors in there.

For such stuff I can recommend the Web Developer Toolbar and Firebug.
