If you want new "joke" for every user (or every page REFRESH) you can just make "SELECT * FROM table ORDER BY RAND()". If you have fixed "joke" for each day, then just enumerate them somehow or implement some HASH function, which produces different values for different date in calendar. ct> I try to choose one entry in the database, almost like "a joke of the day" ct> that should be done automaticly so every day has a different entry. any ct> ideas
