     I know three ways to animate a displacement map to get animated water, but the forum keeps deleting critical parts of my posts.

     One method uses a sequentially numbered series of JPEG displacement maps, placed in a folder.  Use a movie node to drive the displacement.  Instead of an AVI, load the first JPEG into the movie node (you can do this, as of P9/Pro2012 SR3).

Links to demos in my Photobucket - best I can do, because the forum is screwed up.
