What web development tool is used so that an image can change when you re-enter that certain page again?
for example, i have an image with a bear in it. What i would expect to see are bear, duck, and dogs. First i loaded a page and i see a bear picture, we i reloaded the page, the pic changed displaying a dog, i did it again and it showed the bear again..
and how do you do this?
a very good example of what i'm talking about are ad banners.
Thank you

I think most ads are served up using javascript, however, you could use any type of script (PHP, ASP, JSP, Coldfusion etc.) to randomly serve up images or text or whole blocks of content.
