   I got the module to function however, it’s not changing – even when I refresh. Any ideas?
   Contact me and I’ll send you a copy of the altered script.

     Nevermind! Tess’ fix worked.

     Change:
     $x = date(“G”); to $x = date(“Gi”);

   Greg, like your profile (Believer). Looking to use your extension in creating a new Joomla site for WJSA radio in Jersey Shore, PA. I was wondering if the extension has been tested yet under Joomla v2.5?

     This is how much I use Joomla: I had no idea 2.5 was out, much less v2.5.1. :)

     I will test this over the weekend and have something by Monday(ish)

   For those of you wanting to use the jock rotator for sites with different shows/jocks at odd times etc. use my method below

   
   ____-------------------=-----------
     date_default_timezone_set( 'America/Chicago' );
        
       /**
        * Begin Jock Rotator
        *
        * @since 1.0
        * @author Greg Rickaby
        *
       The Jock Rotator is nothing more than a PHP Case Statement. What it does is look at the server date and time, and asks: "Is it before 10:00am? Yes? Then display this jock. etc..." Edit the HTML in each respective time-slot below to customize.
        
       $i = equals the numerical value of the day of the week
        
       Sunday = 0
       Monday = 1
       Tuesday = 2
       Wednesday = 3
       Thursday = 4
       Friday = 5
       Saturday = 6
        
       $x = equals the 24-hour format of an hour with minutes (without the leading zero). You must use 24-hour time!
        
       Examples:
       0000 = Midnight
       900 = 9:00 AM
       1200 = Noon
       1430 = 2:30 PM
       1845 = 6:45 PM
        */
       $i = date( "w" ); // day of the week
       $x = date( "Gi" ); // hour and minutes
       switch ($i) { // start the case statement
             
   case "1":  
   	if ($x < 0600 ) { echo '
        
               MORNING BLEND 6AM-12PM,  Jockname  
   		 
   		 
   		
   ';}
   
   Use 00:00 for midnight.
   
   Also the exta code for website,twitter & Facebook are not necessary if you don't use or need it.
   
   Break days like this
   
   elseif ($x < 0000 ) { echo '
   
   '; }				
   					
   break;		
    case "2":  
   	if ($x < 0600 ) { echo '

   Great module! Love freebies…however… I have been struggling now for a day on getting the image to display.

   1) I do have the image path correct;
   2) I have meddled with the module style to see if the problem is not in the module code
   3) I have the module title displaying, the DJ name and even the time – it also updates automatically when time changes

   Alas, no picture of the DJ???

   PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE help…

   As a simple example, I am using Joomla! 1.7 with template Beez_20 as a standard template and my DJ Jock module is positioned in Position-6 of the template
