What's the connection between the id and the random pages? if you had 10 "html page" file names in a MySQL table, or an array, you'd be able to pick one of them at random and include it. eg SELECT file_name FROM files ORDER BY RAND() LIMIT 1 never had to do it with an array, but i'm guessing array_rand() is what you wanna look at http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.array-rand.php justin french on 28/05/02 11:19 AM, r (r@jumac.com) wrote: > Hey all, > > I'm calling a PHP "GimmeRandom.php?id=35557" and what this page does is take > the "id" and update the number in the database by +1 (till here no problem) > then what its supposed to do is give me ANY ONE of 10 prewritten html pages > in a random order. > > I know this is pretty easy but my brain just aint working today.... > > Cheers, > -Ryan. >
