This tip on php helps you display a random image on a web page. Images are selected from a folder of your choice.

The php code

<? Php/*
* Name your images a. jpg, b.jpg etc.

* Add this line to your page where you want the images to appear:

<? php include “randomphotos.php”; ?>

*/// Change this to the total number of images in the folder

$total = “15?;
// Change to the type of files to use e.g. .jpg or .gif or .png etc
$file_type = “.gif”;
// Change to the location of the folder containing the images
$image_folder = “photos/random”;
// you do not need to edit below this line

$start = “1”; $random = mt_rand($start, $total);$image_name = $random . $file_type; echo “<img src=\”$image_folder/$image_name\” alt=\”$image_name\” />”;?>
