Hi Guys,

On my site I want to have a script so that when you go to [url]www.nameofmysite.com[/url] the script in that< head> loads in a random page.

ie, when I go to [url]www.nameofmysite.com[/url] it could load:

either
[url]www.nameofmysite.com/page1.html[/url]
or
[url]www.nameofmysite.com/page2.html[/url]
or
[url]www.nameofmysite.com/page3.html[/url]

Is there a script that does this. I know it can be done with one image using javascript, but I want it to call a random page, not just images?

Can anyone point me in the right direction or post a url to a script?

Thanks

Chris

[code=php]<script type="text/javascript"><!--
var pages = ["page1.html", "page2.html", "page3.html", "page4.html"];
window.top.location.href = pages[Math.floor(Math.random()*pages.length)];
//-->
</script>[/code]
