outdoorxtreme1 Posted July 20, 2007 Share Posted July 20, 2007 Could someone please tell me what I need to change or add to allow this script to display a new image weekly instead of every time the page is refreshed? Thanks. <? // Connect to the database mysql_connect ('localhost', 'username', 'password') ; mysql_select_db ('database_name'); // Edit this number to however many links you want displaying $num_displayed = 3 ; // Select random rows from the database $result = mysql_query ("SELECT * FROM links ORDER BY RAND() LIMIT $num_displayed"); // For all the rows that you selected while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)) { // Display them to the screen... echo "<a href=\"" . $row["link"] . "\"> <img src=\"" . $row["image"] . "\" border=0 alt=\"" . $row["text"] . "\"> </a>" ; } ?> Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/60942-need-help-with-random-image-code/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
jscix Posted July 20, 2007 Share Posted July 20, 2007 Setup a small table where you can store a timestamp and randomly picked image. then you'd just need to check check the timestamp of that table before calling your pick-a-random-image code.
