javascript guru, what's problem here?

hi, i'm trying to rework a script written to show a different URL each day---it was originally written for 366 days, but i've shortened it to 13 days as a test---but does not show anything on the page.

i know nothing of javascript---can anyone tell me what's wrong? thanks!

Cou cant just use a script for a year. So use 366 days, or dont use it.

Do you want a random link script?

no thanks, i've got random, i need something to hold a URL for 24hrs, and then change to next URL for 24hrs---not change at each refresh.

but i only want maybe 60 days.

the application is for a content rotation thing i'm doing in a member's area.

try replacing the line that says:

Code:

today=numdays+tdays

with:

Code:

today=(numdays + tdays) % daylinks.length

and start the daylinks array with offset 0, like this:

Code:

daylinks[0]="http://www.cnn.com,CNN"

daylinks[1]="http://www.abcnews.com,ABCNews"

daylinks[2]="http://www.cnet.com,ABC"

daylinks[3]="http://www.geocities.com,Geocities"

daylinks[4]="http://www.lycos.com,Lycos"

daylinks[5]="http://www.infoseek.com,Infoseek"

...

this should solve your problem...
