is there a way of adding a script to randomly pick images from a folder. What i need is a new image everytime someone visits the homepage.

At the moment its setup to output images using a custom field in wordpress but i can not find somthing to get it to pick random photo's on each visit.

Any help would be great.

Thanks

I use

<?php
function randomImage ( $array ) {
  $total = count($array);
  $call = rand(0,$total-1);
  return $array[$call];
}
$my_images = array (
  \"com.jpg\",
  \"image.jpg\",
  \"etc.jpg\"
);
$img = randomImage($my_images);
?>

<?php echo '<img src=\"http://imgurl.com/'.$img.'\" />'; ?>
