{jr_html_ad}
Overview:
{jr_html_ad} is used for embedding a static or rotating set of advertisements into a template.
Usage:
Place the html code for each ad that you want to rotate into its own template in your skins/<skin_name>/ads directory, where <skin_name> is replaced with your current skin, such as Cobalt:
jamroom/skins/Cobalt/ads
Each advertisement template should be named with the following conventions: ad#.tpl, where the "#" is replaced by a number, such as ad4.tpl.
 Note: It is extremely important that all templates in your ads directory be named with these conventions, and that the number portion of all templates are consecutive, beginning with 1 (i.e. templates named ad1.tpl, ad2.tpl, ad3.tpl, NOT ad2.tpl, ad4.tpl, ad7.tpl). Also, in order for the jr_html_ad function to work correctly, the only templates you can have in your ads directory are templates with the naming conditions specified as above. If other templates are in the ads directory, your ads will not always be displayed.
