HI all,
I made my own "picture frame" after lookint at "newlandframes" and realizing that what he was doing was using IE and rendering a webpage on the fly to hold the reference to the image. Really very cool. But what I wanted was a picture frame that would load pictures at random from a folder. Well what I ended up with does just that, you point it to a folder and every 20 minutes it will load a new image from the list of images.
Here is my problem, To do this I took advantage of the fact that I am running a webserver on my computer and just wrote a dynamic site in python that loads a new image every time the page is updated. I then just pointed my web object to my own URL and update it every 20 minutes with a timer. Now I know that this should be doable without a webserver using just vbscript, but I'm not all that good with VBscript. So how do you get the contents of a folder into an array, and then how do you randomly get one if the items from the array?
Any and all help would be great
Jose
