Hi!
For a new site I am creating, I need to do one of the following options:
- Load a different home page each time user refreshes or enter site (I could be also just changing part of the code in the same page)
- Load different random different images on the home page as a slide show (BUT, it can't be just 1 image. I have a set of 5 images, that need to change to other 5 images).

Do you have any idea how to do eigther those?
It can be a javascript code, HTML, or PHP.

Thanks

You could load a random home page every time by haveing an array of pages and then a redirect script like this:

var pages=new Array();
pages[0]="hi.html";
pages[1]="there.html";

window.location.href=pages[Math.round(Math.random()*(pages.length-1))];

And you could modify the attached script for your images.

Hi,

Saw your code for loading different pages each time the home page refreshes.

Somehow I am not able to do it as informed by you.

Can you please write the full code?

Thanks in advance.

var pages=new Array();
pages[0]="hi.html";
pages[1]="there.html";

window.location.href=pages[Math.round(Math.random()*(pages.length-1))];

Hi,

this is interesting and i was able to make it work for me. But would you happen know if theres a way to somehow add a limit to how many times it redirects to the html pages? Example, everytime it randomly redirects to those 2 pages, and once each page has reach...lets say 5 reloads it will somehow timeout or redirect to another page? Is this easy to do?

thanks

Hi, i have just tried this, but the page redirects over and over without refreshing, and doesnt allow time for the page to load, like on a loop (http://www.cnsdemo.co.uk/rot).

Click on the image.

Im pretty new to this, am i supposed to put

pages[0]="hi.html"; <------------------------------- this script in hi.html
pages[1]="there.html"; <------------------------------- this script in there.html

and not together?

Thanks
