.// ADVERTISING SCRIPT
Want to rotate your buttons for advertising like I do on my sidebar? I decided to make this
tutorial and share with the world this easy script.
First open up your blank notepad and copy this in save it as FILENAME.JS (important to save as .js):

Change only the things in capital letters, which should only be where the fadeimages code exists.
Furthermore, just keep adding onto the code with the corresponding numbers, i.e. 3,4,5,6 etc.
Then, on the page that you want the code to appear in put this in the head tag.
<![CDATA[
<script type="text/javascript" src="FILENAME.js"></script>
]]>
Lastly, where you want the actual buttons to appear, put :
<![CDATA[<script type="text/javascript">
//new fadeshow(IMAGES_ARRAY_NAME, slideshow_width, slideshow_height, borderwidth, delay, pause (0=no, 1=yes), optionalRandomOrder)
new fadeshow(fadeimages, 88, 31, 0, 2500, 1, "R")
</script>]]>
That's it, if this does not work, please shoot me an email and I will try to help you. :)
