Sequencing a group of HTML elements can be accomplished by the HTML+TIME element, t:SEQ. You have to define the t XML namespace in the HEAD section:

<XML:NAMESPACE PREFIX="t"/>

Try it now. The browser plays members of the group one after the other. Only one slide is displayed at a time. They all show up at the top left corner because of the attribute TIMEACTION="display" which forces a reflowing of the page each time an element disappears.

Here is the full listing:

<HTML>
<HEAD>
  <XML:NAMESPACE PREFIX="t"/>
<TITLE>Simple HTML+TIME Example</TITLE>
<STYLE>
  .mytime {behavior: url(#default#time2);}
</STYLE>
</HEAD>
<BODY>
<t:SEQ CLASS="mytime">
  <IMG CLASS="mytime" SRC="slide1.gif" DUR="5" TIMEACTION="display">
  <IMG CLASS="mytime" SRC="slide4.gif" DUR="5" TIMEACTION="display">
  <IMG CLASS="mytime" SRC="slide5.gif" DUR="5" TIMEACTION="display">
  <IMG CLASS="mytime" SRC="slide6.gif" DUR="5" TIMEACTION="display">
</t:SEQ>
</BODY>
</HTML
