Random images from flickr feed
Hi all
I have adapted some code to import thumbnails from a flickr account

#images ul{

#images ul li{

margin-left:10px;

<body>
<div id="images"> </div>
<script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.3/jquery.min.js"type="text/javascript"></script>
<script>
$.getJSON("http://api.flickr.com/services/feeds/photos_public.gne?id=59807924@N02&lang=en-us&format=json&jsoncallback=?", displayImages);
function displayImages(data) {
var count = 0;
var htmlString = "<ul>";
$.each(data.items, function(i,item){
if(count <= 3){
var img = (item.media.m).replace("_m.jpg", "_s.jpg");
htmlString += '<li><a href="' + item.link + '" target="_blank">';
htmlString += '<img src="' + img + '" alt="' + item.title + '" title="' + item.title + '"/>';
htmlString += '</a></li>';
}
count++;
});
$('#images').html(htmlString + "</ul>");
}
</script>
</body>
</html>
This code will load the first 4 images from the flickr photos
What I want to do is randomly load 4 images so they won’t always be the same.
I tried this: http://www.ttmt.org.uk/flickr/flickr_ran.html
It’s not working and only seems to loop twice
