Rotating banner ad

The rotating banner ad field allows you to place multiple images in a given folder location so when displayed in messages, the image changes (rotating through images in the given folder). Images can be associated with a (single) hyperlink so, when clicked, the given web address is displayed. Image rotation can be set to either random or sequential.

To add a rotating banner ad, follow the steps below:

1. Use the fields panel to insert a rotating banner ad field.

2. Select the newly inserted field and check the properties pane - properties for the image are shown:

   Action	Summary
   Folder Location	Click the browse - - button to open the folder location window and click browse to navigate drives and folders to specify a folder location. Alternatively, click insert to navigate available fields and select an Active Directory field to insert as the location.
   Filter	If required, you can use wildcards so that only certain images are used (for example, you might wish to use a series of images which start with '13' and would therefore specify '13*.*' or you might only wish to use JPEG images and therefore specify '*.JPG'.

Click the browse - - button to open the address window and type the required URL into the address field (i.e. the web address that should be displayed when a user clicks the image in the message). Alternatively, click insert to navigate available fields and select an Active Directory field as the link target (for example, you might wish to use the message sender's web page).
   Hover Text	Enter text to be displayed when a user hovers the cursor over a rotating banner ad image.
   Alt Text	Enter text to be displayed if images cannot be displayed.
