I am redeveloping a site for a client, although I have no experience with flash, the client has a banner with the following actionscript in a preloader file which loads a random SWF. Though he would like it so it is loaded randomly but also rotates every 10-20 seconds with another random banner. The following code is used:

var videoList = new Array();

videoList = ["BANNER1.swf","BANNER2.swf","BANNER3.swf"]
var loadFile:String = videoList[Math.floor(Math.random() * 3)]
var l:Loader = new Loader();
l.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.PROGRESS, loop);
l.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, done);
l.load(new URLRequest(loadFile));

function loop(e:ProgressEvent):void
{
	var perc:Number = e.bytesLoaded / e.bytesTotal;
	percent.text = Math.ceil(perc*100).toString();
}

function done(e:Event):void
{
	removeChildAt(0);
	percent = null;
	addChild(l);
}

Is there a way to modify the file to also rotate with a random banner after awhile? Or is there another way to achieve this (it can't be simply rotating image files using PHP, must be a flash component due to limitations with the CMS the host provides plus the banners are already animated in flash format).

Thank you for any help!
;)
