Not sure how to create a pseudo-slide show

[Duker10]

I would like to create an effect similar to that found on the home page of
[url]http://www.nhl.com[/url], where they have a rotating set of images and news stories.
I don't want to use flash to create it, as I want it to be viewable on any
browser. I know that some places, such as my place of employment, do not allow
access to the Flash progam as a "security" measure.

Anyway, can someone help me with the javascript for this? I checked the
source file for that page, but cannot find the code for the javascript :
switchnews call that it is making.

Thanks

the javascript code is in external files, just point out your browser to
them although i think it'll be easier to google for some tutorial or
example about the subject

<script src="http://cdn.nhl.com/scripts/utils.js"
type="text/javascript"></script>
....

BTW, the webmaster in your job also block Java applets? are you sure
that security measure isn't just a webmaster joke?

No, it's a total control thing. Wouldn't want the employees on their lunch break to be able to see a flash site. They say it's for security purposes, but I know it's not.

Thanks for the advice.
