Here's a rough idea of one way you can do it.

 Help with Code Tags 
 PHP Syntax (Toggle Plain Text) 
function change($current_banner)
  {
  $number_of_banners = 5;
  if ($current_banner < $number_of_banners)
    {
      $current_banner++;
    }
  else
    {
      $current_banner = 0;
    }
  return $current_banner;
  }
function change($current_banner)
  {
  $number_of_banners = 5;
  if ($current_banner < $number_of_banners)
    {
      $current_banner++;
    }
  else
    {
      $current_banner = 0;
    }
  return $current_banner;
  }

  }
}
