  1. I would like to be able to display 5-10 random images on a page, and have 5-10 different images displayed if the page is visited again, or reloaded.

    I've got the displaying the images part done, but the randomizing is faulty. The images are displayed in a random order, but when the page is refreshed/reloaded, or visted again, they are always in the same order (say images 1,5,3,8,4 are displayed, reload, and the same images are displayed in the same order)

    [code]<?php
    $pics = array("img1.jpg", "img2.jpg", "img3.jpg","img4.jpg", "img5.jpg");
    shuffle($pics);
    for ( $i = 0; $i < 5; $i++ )
    {
    echo '<img src="portfolio/' . $pics[$i] . '" border="0">&nbsp;&nbsp;';
    }
    ?>[/code]

    The shuffle(); function doesn't seem to make it randomize the elements in the array the way I want. Is there another function that does what shuffle(); does, but randomizes  the elements in the array the way I want? (Meaning, on reload it reorders the elements in the array.)
