i already know how to rotate images (everytime the page is refreshed) using the array function (javascript) , the thing is now i want to know if theres any way possible to have different slices in a header rotate as a whole (3 slices make up one image)

all help is appreciated, thanks!

use the following naming convention (assuming the header is broken up into a left, center and right image):

l_image01.gif
c_image01.gif
r_image01.gif

l_image02.gif
c_image02.gif
r_image02.gif

l_image03.gif
c_image03.gif
r_image03.gif

l_image04.gif
c_image04.gif
r_image04.gif

Then in your code, I assume somewhere from the rotating, you would end up with a variable that contains the chosen image (say "image03.gif"). Now for each of the three images, you just need to prepend the name with "l_", "c_" or "r_".
