[HTML/javascript] rotate pictures in mapped image space?

[System_Error]

This might be a little confusing, so please bare with me. I know how to map an image, but the thing is I don't really care about it going to the link after I click on the mapped space. What I want is to have rotating pictures in the Mapped Space, but im not sure if this is possible.

If this is possible, could you please tell me how to do this?

I am probably wrong about this, but the only way I can think of to do what you want to do is for you to edit your image and make the parts you want to rotate serarate images. Then when you load it you can load all the serarate images which will appear as one image. Once you have serarate images within your larger image it should be quite easy to make these separate images rotate with a mouse-over event or clicking on them or whatever.

Good Luck

Thanks. That worked perfectly except for these are fairly large images. So is there any way I can 'preload' the images for efficency?

Glad my suggestion worked, I had never really tried it, but that was all I could think of.

I am sure there probably is a way to preload your images and I think I read about it somewhere, but I can't recall where right now.

Have you tried compressing your images? You might try that. Do a Google search on compressing images, I think there are a lot of free-bee programs out there that you could use.

Also, perhaps you could change your image format. You know, bitmaps are the largest I think and jpegs and gifs can be much smaller. Also if you decrease the resolution a little bit it will often make the image much smaller.

Good Luck
