HI!!
there are two parts to the following code
func rotate() rotates a series of image indefinitely
and scrool() , start scroll () scroll a message indefinitely
when placed independently both of them work
but if they are in the same page they dont work......

i have tried calling the functions at different place but nothing seems to work
any ideas????
the code is below
<html>
<head>
<title>javascript</title>
<script language="Javascript">
<!--

var n=0;
timedelay=1000;

var imgs= new Array();
imgs[0]="dha.jpg";
imgs[1]="mda.jpg";
imgs[2]="ada.jpg";

function rotate()
{
document.picform.slideshow.src=imgs[n];
(n==(imgs.length-1))?n=0:n++;
window.setTimeout("rotate()",timedelay);
}

window.onload=rotate;
message="this is a scrolling message";
initial_delay=0;
scroll_delay=75;
max_indent=50;

function scroll()
{
message=message.substring(1,message.length)+ message.substring(0,1);
document.scrollbox_form.scrollbox.value=message;
window.setTimeout("scroll ()", scroll_delay);
}

function start_scroll()
{
for (var i=1; i<= max_indent; i++)
message=" " + message;
scrollbox=document.scrollbox_form.scrollbox;
window.setTimeout("scroll ()",initial_delay);
}
window.onload=start_scroll;
//-->
</script>
</head>
<body>
<form name=picform>
<img name=slideshow src="pic1.gif">
</form>
