I see that you got a lot of responses, but I didn't see anyone using
what I use. I had problems using rand() because it wasn't quite random
enough. The following code is as random as you can get (at least from
what I've seen).
mt_srand ((double) microtime() * 1000000);
$myrandomnumber = mt_rand($min_number, $max_number);
