some usefull HTML for your website

Hi all,
my page that displays my image uploaded from my AirNav had a refresh
of 60 secs  http://g0hwc.com/airnav.html
This was fine but it was refreshing the whole page and I just wanted
to update the RadarBoxScreenShot.gif image.
I am now using this script.

<img src="airnav/RadarBoxScreenShot.gif" width="960" height="844" border="1" name="refresh">
 <script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
     <!--
     var t = 30 // interval in seconds
     image = "airnav/RadarBoxScreenShot.gif" //name of the image
     function Start() {
     tmp = new Date();
     tmp = "?"+tmp.getTime()
     document.images["refresh"].src = image+tmp
     setTimeout("Start()", t*1000)
     }
     Start();
     // -->
     </SCRIPT>

Now only the image is refreshed and not the whole page.
May be handy to some of you.

As a non-programmer, I have a request for those of you who understand these things.

Now that I've incorporated the code to refresh the RadarBox screenshot image on my webpage, could somebody whip up some code to display one picture when I'm online, and another picture when the image is, for example, more than two minutes old?

That way I could show the screenshot when I'm online, but a "Currently offline" image when I'm not.

It sounds quite an easy job to me, but, as I say, I know nothing :-)

Hey G0HWC,

Thanks for this brilliant piece of coding - probably the best little snippet of code I have used in a while.

Makes the update of images so much better than refreshing the whole page.

Thank you.

Hi Rod,
I dont know a easy way to do this, On my Truckcam site
When I finish work for the day and no more images of the view
from my truck will be uploaded I just use a simple FTP program
to send a "Truckcam" off line image. This is easy as I only need
to do this at the end of every working day..
