I am doing a website in ASP.Net and I need to implement a slide show and I have a few questions.

I was able to implement one in JavaScript fairly easily, but I need to be able to load all the images from a folder without knowing how many images there will be and I do not think that is possible with JavaScript. If there is a way to be able to read/display all the images from a folder (without knowing all the files names) with JavaScript please let me know

.

If the JavaScript way is not possible I will do it server-side. If I do it server-side is there a way to have it automatically switch the picture after X amount of time without an AJAX timer or anything fancy like that?

I may just end up using the AJAX slide show control. It is a fairly simple website and did not want to use too much server-side code or AJAX stuff. Thanks for any input on this.
