how can i display a different image each day of the month?

[estesflyer]

Im wanting to set my site up, to where i dont have to change the image out (the image displays the date) every day. i will create all the images each month, and then upload them, then, i dont have to worry about it. Also keep in mind, that I am wanting the image (the date on the image) to be right, no matter what the timezone is. it might have something to do w/

if (todays date is the first)
{
var image="this image.gif";
}
else if (todays date is the second)
{
var image="second image.gif";
}

anyway, if anyone knows how that could be done, PLZ lemme know!

thx a million!!!

Rusty,

Why wouldn't you just build an Array of the file names and then use the Javascript.Date.getDate() method to pick the name from the array? Or am I missing something?

var DateImages = new Array("d1.gif","d2.gif","d3.gif",...);
var dt = new Date();
var image = DateImages[dt.getDate()];

well, that is exactly what i would do, except me and arrays have a big problem understanding eachother. I have looked at several tutorials, including the webmonkey tutorials, and still, they havent come clear to me at all! i know what rthey are, but i dont know how to use them, OR how they work....

TIA
