scott.stephan Posted July 28, 2009 Share Posted July 28, 2009 I currently have a little test I'm trying to run and hitting a wall. <?php $header_img_urls=array('http://ilovepr.com/media/upload/image/tile1(1).jpg','http://ilovepr.com/media/upload/image/vegg-tile.jpg','http://ilovepr.com/media/upload/image/tile2(2).jpg'); $rand_img=rand(0,count($header_img_urls)-1); $url=$header_img_urls[$rand_img]; ?> "gfgcv"; <?php echo $url; ?> <h1><img alt="" src="<?php $url; ?>" /> </h1> It echos fine, but it never outputs anythig to the "src". It comes up blank everytime. What stupid thing am I missing?

WolfRage Posted July 28, 2009 Share Posted July 28, 2009 You have to use echo in both places. Because you did not tell PHP what to do with the variable url the second time around. <h1><img alt="" src="<?php echo $url; ?>" /> </h1> Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/167859-solved-using-php-to-nab-a-random-url-and-display/#findComment-885319 Share on other sites More sharing options...
