I'm trying to build a website using Drupal, and one of the requirements is a liquid-width banner rotator for products. I've looked many different modules, and can't find one that fits the requirements. Either it doesn't provide a way to link to the actual product page, or it's fixed-width, or both.
Can anyone point me in the right direction?
Edit: Bosses decided to change a few things, so the question became unnecessary.

Is there really nothing out
Is there really nothing out there that fits what I need? I know it's possible to do it using Javascript, it's just that I can't figure out how to integrate Javascript into Drupal -- (EDIT: I misread the documentation. It is possible to integrate Javascript, I just need to figure out how...)
flash component as banner
You could try embedding a flash component using swfobject.js
examples here .. http://www.flashxml.net/components/
instead of tightly integrating javascript and flash objects into your drupal site you could simply access any of the flashxml demos through an iframe on your page by creating a block
structure > blocks - to be placed in header.
The flash banners would then run outside drupal.
But you will have to pay to remove the flashxml watermark from the free demo(s).
If you have the time and patience you can build your own flash components from open source.
Thank you!
I just wanted to thank the user for submitting this great link. I found an excellent banner at www.flashxml.net/banner-rotator.html
It has everything I could want in a banner: I can have almost 100 image transitions, dozens of text appearance effect, zoom in/out for the images. It has everything customizable via the 2 XML files, including image timing and everything.
I really like it's live control panel, it's nice to be able to see your customizations live. The only little problem is the unregistered version's logo in the top-left corner...does anyone know how to remove the logo?
Thanks...
