Random Link or Image
Use this code below to display a random link or image.Well this code is explained in the comments:
PHP Code
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17
<?
//your links file should be in the following format:
//http://domain.com|text to display
//http://domain2.com|more text to display
define("linkfile", "links.txt"); //points linkfile to links.txt
$links = file(linkfile);//points $links to the linkfile
srand((double)microtime()*1000000);//generates a radom number
$randline = rand(0,count($links)-1);//picks a random line on the linkfile
$link = explode("|",$links[$randline]);//seperates the link from the text to display
echo "<a href="$link[0]">$link[1]</a>";//echos the link and the description
//you could also use this to link random images:
//echo "<a href="$link[0]"><img src="$link[1]" /></a>";
//just format your links.txt file in the following format:
//http://domain.com|url the image
?>
Works pretty good. Just remember in the links.txt file or whatever you decide to name it, you use the right format that it explains in the comments.
