<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>Hi there,<o:p></o:p></span>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US><o:p> </o:p></span>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>this is more a general question than a
jQuery based one, but maybe jQuery really is the thing to implement this.<o:p></o:p></span>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US><o:p> </o:p></span>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>I have to create a slideshow with an
unknown amount of images. The person that is managing the content doesn’t
want to edit any source code or something when uploading new images, so the
best method would be to just cycle a whole directory of images, at least if I
want to avoid server side scripting. Is this possible in any way using
JavaScript and/or jQuery? I fear it’s not, but maybe you have a hint or
something…<o:p></o:p></span>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US><o:p> </o:p></span>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>Thanks in advance,<o:p></o:p></span>
