Nancy O. Aug 28, 2010 2:00 PM (in response to cyberbaffled)Animation is not possible with HTML alone.
You need to either use your graphics app to layer images into an animated.gif or use a Flash authoring app like Adobe Flash Professional, Swishmax or Kool Moves.

2. Re: animation plug-in
cyberbaffled Aug 29, 2010 4:36 PM (in response to Nancy O.)I should have added CSS as a possible animation tool. Perhaps, using your idea, if html/css enables me to select layered images at timed intervals I could approximate an animation.

Nope. I'm afraid not. HTML = content. CSS = styles. Neither provides the framework necessary for animations.
You will need to look at other software for this.

Add javascript to the mix and you have a winner. jQuery does this sort of thing fine, as do a number of commercial extensions. At the top of my list is anything from Project Seven (http://www.projectseven.com). Check them out.
