Hi I have this script which pulls 1 random item from a txt file. How would I modify it to pull 10 random items. <?php $delim = "\n"; $quotefile = "names.txt"; $fp = fopen($quotefile, "r"); $contents = fread($fp, filesize($quotefile)); $quote_arr = explode($delim,$contents); fclose($fp); // generate random quote index $quote_index = (mt_rand(1, sizeof($quote_arr)) - 1); // get quote at $quote_index and return it $herequote = $quote_arr[$quote_index]; echo "<li><a href='http://www.$herequote'>$herequote</a></li>"; ?> Thanks
