HTML/Java code help! Very difficult!

[bugboyandy]

A few questions about the "random html page" code:

Is there a way I can have percentages/odds/chances for each random page to be displayed?

And, once someone is displayed any of these pages, is it possible to block their IP address from viewing that page until 24 hours?

Any help would be very appreciated.

Thanks,
Andrew

A few questions about the "random html page" code:

What "random html page" code are you referring to? I'm new here, perhaps I've missed something.

Is there a way I can have percentages/odds/chances for each random page to be displayed?

How many pages are there? If you had 10 pages and true randomness, then it stands to reason that over time each page would have a 10% chance of being displayed.

And, once someone is displayed any of these pages, is it possible to block their IP address from viewing that page until 24 hours?

Have a look at the HTTP header: REMOTE_ADDR. However this is not reliable, is easily spoofed and is often the address of a proxy server thus potentially blocking other users behind said proxy.

Despite the thread title, this is a Javascript, not a Java coding problem - and nothing to do with HTML, which is what this section of the forum supports. Personally, I have no instant reply, since I don't use Javascript much. I would think you would have a much better chance of a quick answer if you posted your question in the javascript section.
