CSS3 timed animation of background image

Question

I am pretty new to CSS and HTML, but I am learning the ropes. Right now, I have a background image on my header section and I am trying to turn this into a slideshow with 3-4 images shuffling through on a timer.

I have seen some tutorials that use images through HTML, but the way I have set it up is I have my CSS property background-image set as my image.

If this doesnt make sense, here is the CSS

.global-header {
min-height:600px;
background-image: url("Assets/BGImages/head_sandwichman.jpg");
background-size: cover;
text-align: center; 
and the HTML

<header class="container global-header">
<div class="inner-w">
<div class='rmm' data-menu-style = "minimal">
        <ul>
            <li><a href="index.html">HOME</a></li>
            <li><a href="menu.html">MENU</a></li>
            <li><a href="findus.html">FIND US</a></li>
            <li><a href="about.html">ABOUT</a></li> 
        </ul>
    </div>
    <div class="large-logo-wrap">
        <img src="Assets/Logos/Giadaslogoindexwhitebig.png" />
    </div>
</div>

Thanks for the help!

Use following

 <script>
//Here use Array of images ,which you want to show, Use path you want.
var images=new Array('Assets/BGImages/head_sandwichman1.jpg','Assets/BGImages/head_sandwichman2.jpg','Assets/BGImages/head_sandwichman3.jpg');
var nextimage=0;

doSlideshow();

function doSlideshow()
{

if(nextimage>=images.length)
    nextimage=0;

$('.global-header').css('background-image','url("'+images[nextimage++]+'")').fadeIn(500,function(){setTimeout(doSlideshow,1000);});

}

</script>
