var arr=new Array();
arr=["0","1","2","3","4","5","6","7","8","9"];
function getCookie(c_name)

var i,x,y,ARRcookies=document.cookie.split(";");
for (i=0;i<ARRcookies.length;i++)
  {
  x=ARRcookies[i].substr(0,ARRcookies[i].indexOf("="));
  y=ARRcookies[i].substr(ARRcookies[i].indexOf("=")+1);
  x=x.replace(/^\s+|\s+$/g,"");
  if (x==c_name)
    {
    return unescape(y);
    }
  }
}

function setCookie(c_name,value,exdays)
{
var exdate=new Date();
exdate.setDate(exdate.getDate() + exdays);
var c_value=escape(value) + ((exdays==null) ? "" : "; expires="+exdate.toUTCString());
document.cookie=c_name + "=" + c_value;

What you could do is use Javascript to get the weeknumber and use that number to pick an appropriate image. If you want a different image for each week of the year, for example, you could have an image like image03.png for week 3.

However, I recomment doing this serverside to have the image already decided when delivering the webpage so the user doesn't experience a delay in having the image appear.
