Note Submitter: helsouz at gmail dot com ---- Well, i don't know much about php and i try to get my own solutions: <?php include('config.php'); $lastid= 'lastid'; $result = mysql_query("SELECT id AS $lastid FROM registered_members ORDER BY id DESC LIMIT 0,1"); while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)) { $lastid2= $row[$lastid];} echo rand(0, $lastid2); ?> This will get the latest value from ID row, once this is done, the rand($min, $max) will work. Any inconviniet? Just need to generate random numbers between the 0 and the latest id entry on the registered_members
