Hi

I would like to know if anyone can suggest a php script that will allow me to rotare articles on my web page. For example I have 5 articles and I would like to show a different article to each new visitor on one page.

Thanks

    • Thx jwlnewsome

      I have just been trying that code snippet and it does not work or atleast I cannot make it work.

      If there is a code snippet that can be put on web pages to allow random articles from one folder asigned to that web page to show all the articles in that folder randomly when a vistior visits.

      So each page will have its own folder filled with articles to be shown randomly on that page.
  • Actually the code jwlnewsome posted is essentially what you need, perhaps you left off the closing semicolons on the array and echo lines like jwlnewsome did in their post. Essentially you're defining and array of articles and using a random number generator to make a selection in the array.

    Check your code for syntax errors and try again!

  • That was a nice bit of base code Bill - the only other option that I would have considered would be adding a dynamic database field that updates at pageload - plus a table containing the banner pics of course...
  • Actually da1fitz the code was posted by jwlnewsome, I was just commenting on it.

    This link may be useful to the OP, there are several scripts to choose from here:
