Create your own slide show with DHTML and CSS

I've worked with HTML, XHTML, XML and even VRML but I hadn't heard of DHTML (Dynamic HTML) until I went looking for a way to do a slide show with some jpg images. My main problem is that I would like to keep everything separate as the Head First book suggests. I could just use the "img" tag in my HTML document like the Head First example from chapter 1. However, I figured there might be an easy (or at least not too difficult) way of doing a slide show and keeping everything in their respective files.

I found this site when I searched on slide shows. It looks like this will do what I want however; it is all in the HTML document so I would have to scrape it out and put everything in their own files. That shouldn’t be a problem because the code is separate and it looks like it would be easy to move everything.

The other option I have been considering is to just start with everything in my HTML page like the book and then move things one at a time. I am not sure at this point what I will do but I got some good ideas and found more information from W3schools. I think this site may actually be one of the best reference sites, for what we are doing, that I’ve found so far.
