[SOLVED] change Image on refresh...

[phpSensei]

I want to know how to make a little script that changes an image displayed on a page...

 

Lets we are on the home page, and there is an image of a cat...

 

Refresh the page, and that image changes to a dog...

 

and so on.

Im going to take it that you want it to be random ... If you dont say .. Also you would have the chance of the same one coming up more then once but it can be maded to stop that..

 

$randomImages = array("dog", "cat");
$rand = array_rand($randomImages);

echo "<img src='/images/$rand.gif'></img>";

 

Will randomly select dog or cat and display it.. If you dont want it random just make other code to change the $rand variable that declares what image to be displayed..

Do something like this:

 

<?php

$images = array("1.jpg", "2.jpg", "3.gif");
shuffle($images);

echo "<img src='".$images[0]."'>";

?>

 

I was beat to it...but here is mine anyways.

[phpSensei]

wow, thankyou thankyou both....

 

From now on, I will use this method to randomize things...

Ha, both methods are amazing...

 

I needed this for an MMORPG, so when the user refreshes the page, his/her character will be in a different position....

Yeah that should do exactly what you want then
