Hi All,
I am based in Alicante and new to the forum and to Cumulus. I am very impressed and donation on it´s way..
I have a question and apologies if it has been covered before. I have searched the forums (and the internet for that matter) but is it possible to make the TNET banner refresh automatically so it shows live data, without having to refresh the page?
Thanks in advance
Andy

Your browser treats it as an image, so you can refresh it automatically using javascript in the same way as any other image, e.g. see

Thanks Steve, and sorry for being a numpty...... I am not very knowledgeable about this type of thing (I tow big things around lol)
I have the banner on my blog
www.monstermoovers.com and can´t do anything with the page html. Could the code be put into the banner script, so the banner refreshes itself, irrespective... if that makes sense?
Thanks
Andy

No, as far as the browser is concerned, it's just an image. There would have to be something on the page to make the browser re-fetch the image.
Perhaps this would work -

Thanks for the advice. I still had no joy.... Maybe it´s a blogger.com thing.
I shall however keep trying and will post here if I have any success.
