I need a random images script

This PHP solution works and you can easily modify it to suit.

 

Create a folder in the website directory call 'images' and put your images in there.

 

create a folder in the website directory called 'random'.

 

In that folder create 4 html files caled '1.html', '2.html', etc.

 

in each of the html files put this code in: (for each one amend the image name, obviously)

 

<?

$x = 1;

 

$random = array(

'image_1.jpg',

'image_2.jpg',

'image_3.jpg',

'image_4.jpg',

 

);

 

shuffle($random);

 

while($x <= 1){

$x++;

 

echo "<img src='images/", $random[$x] , "' width='[image width]' height='[image height]' alt='[alt text here]'>";

}

?>

 

(also adjust the stuff in the square brackets)

 

(If you want it to output twice or more, change the $x value)

 

Now put this code in to your web page at the first location (page must have .php ext):

 

<?php include("random/1.html"); ?>

 

Then this at the second:

 

<?php include("random/2.html"); ?>

 

etc.

 

The output will be:

 

"<img src='images/[random image]' width='150' height='150' alt='text'>
