    Hi,

    I have 3 images, fish-cartoon.png, fish-cartoon2.png and fish-cartoon3.png.

    All 3 of the images are at images/.

    They are all the same pixel size, and similar kb size, and i want them to randomize.

    How could i do this using PHP?

    It is for fitfishes.com

    rename first image i.e. fish-cartoon.png to fish-cartoon1.png

    use the function rand(1,3) http://www.php.net/rand

    and you've done it..

    The problem is that i know no PHP code whatsoever, and i am unsure what to write, would this be correct?

    
<?php
echo rand() . "fish-cartoon.png";
echo rand() . "fish-cartoon2.png";
echo rand() . "fish-cartoon3.png";
?>
    Code (markup):
