Q. A 'static' image swapper with links ?

[George]

Hi,

The code below comes directly from http://www.dynamicdrive.com.
It does exactly half of what I'd like it to do.
The other half is this:

I'd like the image block of the changing images to move up and down,
as the user scrolls up and down on the page.

Can any of you folks suggest how I would envelope the following code
(of course I will change the images to my own) to move up and down on
the page as the page is scrolled up and down (static?) ?

Thanks,
George

The effect of the code, as it is, can be seen at:

No, that doesn't help me. What I need is what I described in my
original thread.
