Hi,

I have got a simple table like this:

        create table tips (
                id integer primary key unique,
                tiptext text
        );

and, I've got a website where I'm willing to show these tips in a random
order. Each visitor will get a randomly selected tip. So for now, I have
to do 2 queries:

        select id from tips

collect an ID list, choose one randomly and retrieve it. I wish I could
do something like:

        select tiptext from tips order by random limit 1

in PostgreSQL.
