Our Banner Rotator component makes it easy to add dynamic clickable banner images to html web pages and Flash applications. Use any text editor to modify the XML configuration file that serves as the Rotator's playlist and is used to configure the playback parameters. The benefit of an external playlist is that you can change your content and playback settings without modifying any source files. You will need Flash authoring software if you want to modify the size of the rotator, add skinning elements, or modify the source files. New features include impression and click tracking with Google Analytics, FlashVars support for dynamic XML loading, and caption support.
