So then the total code would be:
<?
$mysqlconnect = mysql_connect("localhost", "mysqladmin", "i.hate.microsoft");
$result = mysql_list_tables("Bookmarks");
$n = mysql_num_rows($result);
$seek = mt_rand(0, $n-1);
$random_table = mysql_data_seek($result, $seek);
echo "<br><br>The randomly slected table was<b>$random_table</b><br><br>";
?>
If so, then this does not work for me. All I get is $random_table == 1. If not,
then what am I missing.
Thanks for your quick response,
