    Boy, I have checked on XDPX and XWDP all back to v12 - all work.

    It does require an Internet connection.
    On my broadband speed, i have a second delay between images. That can be lessened by changing the width and height request.

    That's good to know.

    I have very fast internet (250 Mbps) and no matter how long I wait, the frames stay empty.

    It's nothing to do with the frames, it's just the background.

    Here it is working on-line: http://acorn.xara.hosting/PurelyRandom/.

    The whole purpose was to save me looking out the window when I am building previewing something.

    Sorry, it's not firing up for you.

    Seeing your published version in Chrome, my default browser, I realized, duh, that I should try previewing it in Chrome rather than in IE that XDP serves up. And, sure enough, now it works. As a matter of fact it works in all the other browsers as well.

    Looking great. Thanks for the template, Acorn!
