Have you used flash before? it sounds like your easiest optionhttp://www.w3schools.com/flash/default.aspps its software that you have to buy

Try using a Marquee inside a table that can hold 5 of your images.I'm not sure if it will work but I can't think of anything else using html.Ruud Hermans

Akthough the marquee tag works I thought that it has been depriceated and that t won't validate?

It's not deprecated, the marquee tag was never part of the HTML specification, it was a tag created by microsoft - Mozilla Firefox, Opera, and Safari web browsers support it for legacy page compatibility.

Oh right, so does that mean that it won't validate and that it may not work in some browsers?

That's correct, the validator will give an error as this element isn't part of the dtd and some browsers may not support the tag as it's not part of the standard.

The major browser do support it however, Firefox, IE and Opera.Ruud Hermans

Oh, thats is alright then, but what will happen if a browser does not support it? Will it display an error message, or will it just not display the marquee hence making the viewer unaware that it is there?

[justsomeguy]

Most likely it won't display anything. Since the marquee element is undefined, the browser wouldn't have any rules for how to show it (or if it should show it at all), so it would probably ignore it.

Good, good, I just wondered whether it woud completely mess up your page, but as it just wont show it then theres no problems, Thank you for your help, well not really, but thanks for responding to my queries. You see I never really use marquees but they do look rather amazing, then again they can also look tackey, but oh well.
