1. HTML can't do this. You need JavaScript or something else more powerful.
2. Well you can download a free trial of an animation program such as Animation Shop 3, which you might be able to find on download.com. You'll then have to animate your self and save it as a .gif Or You can create an album on photobucket.com and make 4 slide shows and it will give you an HTML code for it.
3. you can do this using animated gif but the easy way is to us java script this is the code: <script language="JavaScript1.2"> var slideshow_width='200px' //SET IMAGE WIDTH var slideshow_height='350px' //SET IMAGE HEIGHT var pause=3000 //SET PAUSE BETWEEN SLIDE (3000=3 seconds) var fadeimages=new Array() //add yor images here add as you want by increasing the //array like fadeimages[3]=www.yoursite.com/x.jpg fadeimages[0]="image1.jpg" fadeimages[1]="image2.jpg" fadeimages[2]="image3.jpg" ////NO need to edit beyond here///////////// var preloadedimages=new Array() for (p=0;p<fadeimages.length;p++){ preloadedimages[p]=new Image() preloadedimages[p].src=fadeimages[p] } var ie4=document.all var dom=document.getElementById if (ie4||dom) document.write('<div style="position:relative;width:'+slideshow_width+';height:'+slideshow_height+';overflow:hidden"><div id="canvas0" style="position:absolute;width:'+slideshow_width+';height:'+slideshow_height+';top:0;left:0;filter:alpha(opacity=10);-moz-opacity:10"></div><div id="canvas1" style="position:absolute;width:'+slideshow_width+';height:'+slideshow_height+';top:0;left:0;filter:alpha(opacity=10);-moz-opacity:10"></div></div>') else document.write('<img name="defaultslide" src="'+fadeimages[0]+'">') var curpos=10 var degree=10 var curcanvas="canvas0" var curimageindex=0 var nextimageindex=1 function fadepic(){ if (curpos<100){ curpos+=10 if (tempobj.filters) tempobj.filters.alpha.opacity=curpos else if (tempobj.style.MozOpacity) tempobj.style.MozOpacity=curpos/100 } else{ clearInterval(dropslide) nextcanvas=(curcanvas=="canvas0")? "canvas0" : "canvas1" tempobj=ie4? eval("document.all."+nextcanvas) : document.getElementById(nextcanvas) tempobj.innerHTML='<img src="'+fadeimages[nextimageindex]+'">' nextimageindex=(nextimageindex<fadeimages.length-1)? nextimageindex+1 : 0 setTimeout("rotateimage()",pause) } } function rotateimage(){ if (ie4||dom){ resetit(curcanvas) var crossobj=tempobj=ie4? eval("document.all."+curcanvas) : document.getElementById(curcanvas) crossobj.style.zIndex++ var temp='setInterval("fadepic()",50)' dropslide=eval(temp) curcanvas=(curcanvas=="canvas0")? "canvas1" : "canvas0" } else document.images.defaultslide.src=fadeimages[curimageindex] curimageindex=(curimageindex<fadeimages.length-1)? curimageindex+1 : 0 } function resetit(what){ curpos=10 var crossobj=ie4? eval("document.all."+what) : document.getElementById(what) if (crossobj.filters) crossobj.filters.alpha.opacity=curpos else if (crossobj.style.MozOpacity) crossobj.style.MozOpacity=curpos/100 } function startit(){ var crossobj=ie4? eval("document.all."+curcanvas) : document.getElementById(curcanvas) crossobj.innerHTML='<img src="'+fadeimages[curimageindex]+'">' rotateimage() } if (ie4||dom) window.onload=startit else setInterval("rotateimage()",pause) </script>
