I don't see a background helper in the chapter on views, so I'd probably play around with the STYLE helper to set the background image. That should work easily for 1 image, and for changing images I see 2 options: 1) use a reload timer to refresh the page and load the 2nd image at that time. Details TBD, and that might not be a smooth transition. 2) use javascript and a timer to rewrite the DOM entry for the background image. Again, details TBD. Good luck ... sorry this answer is so late. /dps -- Resources: - http://web2py.com - http://web2py.com/book (Documentation) - http://github.com/web2py/web2py (Source code) - https://code.google.com/p/web2py/issues/list (Report Issues) --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "web2py-users" group.
