Random output?

Hi All, I need a little help with an output problem. I want to output a message (see below) but would like to use more than one variation of the same statement, as the message will become too repetitive. Is there a way I can randomly choose a message for the same if expression? At the moment, there is only one variation for the below, but I would love to increase that to randomly chosen ones. Any help is much appreciated. echo "<br><b>PLAYER STATUS</b><br>"; if ($wage == "$current_wage") { echo "Despite being delighted at signing for $club_name, $player_name expressed his disappointment at not securing a higher wage.<BR>\n"; } elseif ($wage > "$current_wage") { echo "$player_name has stated that he is delighted with the pay-rise given to him in his new contract.<BR>\n"; } elseif ($wage < "$current_wage") { echo "$player_name has admitted that while he is disappointed by the wage offer, he is still looking forward to playing for $club_name.<BR>\n"; } else { echo "$player_name has stated the his contract details have satisfied his personal needs."<BR>\n"; } Cheers, SK
