I am creating a Web site for a local organization, and one of the
requirements is to (randomly) display a series of pictures of important
buildings and features of the area on the main page.
I assume I should to this sort of processing with JavaScript, but I
don't know if that's the easiest or best method. If it is, I don't have
any idea _how_ I should approach this task. Any thoughts? TIA

In that case, you should read the newsgroup FAQ on Random.

<http://jibbering.com/faq/index.html> and
<http://www.jibbering.com/faq/> are down at present; $clj-faq.htm on my
site is a recent copy.

It's not clear whether the pictures are to be all displayed at once, a
series of smallish images on the page, or are to be displayed one at a
time, like a slide show. A Web search JavaScript "random slide show"
might help; it soon enough finds "Indefinite Random Slide Show" in
<URL:http://www.merlyn.demon.co.uk/js-randm.htm> which also has "Groups
of Random Images".
