How to strip away all functionality and just autoload photos

Hi Angus,

I'd like to remove the buttons of the script and just use the autoloader to display the images in a table. Unfortunately, my knowledge of css is very limited and I can't strip out the correct bits of code without losing the images. Can you help?

Also, and I fear this will require a whole different piece of code, but is it possible to randomly select the images rather than loading them in order?

Many thanks,
Adam.

The simple, cheating way is to put:

style="display: none"

on any of the HTML tags you want to hide. Voila, invisible.

As for randomness, here's a snippet you can paste into the script:

PhotoMorpher.prototype.random = function() { with (this)
{
var items = list.getElementsByTagName('li');
this.display(items[Math.floor(Math.random() * items.length)]);
}};

Then just call photo.random() just like you would call photo.next(). I haven't tested this but it should work OK.
