// MODIFICATION LOG:
// DATE AUTHOR VERSION MODIFICATION
// ==== ====== ======= ============
// 01/14/2005 dp 1.0 Initial Generation
// 02/01/2005 dp 1.1 Changed the IF statement *1
// 04/15/2005 dp 1.2 Added an alternate promotion *2
// 05/25/2005 tb 1.3 Added a start date to promotions *3
// 10/2/2006 es 1.4 Added banner rotation
//
// USE:
// Built for Ala Moana Center to automate switching out the Flash movies on the
// homepage. These Flash movies contain promotions that end on certain dates and
// need to be switched out at inconvenient times.
//
// *1 The IF statement was changed from '(theDay < expireDay)' to '(now < expireDate)'
// The previous statement only accounted for the day which didn't function properly
// once the next month came along.
//
// *2 The purpose of the altpromo is to run back to back promotions. The first promotion
// will end, then the alternate promotion will begin.
// NOTE: Should be rewritten to be more flexible and interchangeable. The code will
// look for promo 1 first. If that is expired it will move on to the alt promo, then
// to the default promo. Promo 1 and alt promo should be interchangeable based on date
// of promo.
//
// *3 Start date variables were added to so that the promotion banner can be set to automatically go live.
// The IF statement was changed from '(now < expireDate)' to '((now > startDate) && (now < expireDate))'.
// The changes were also made to the alternate promotion.
//
// *4 If both banners are set to run, banners will be randomly displayed in first IF statement.
