(Figre I should pull my weight on this list here.)
Hmm. Not sure exactly what MSWC AdRotator is, but
here's one I developed. Is it what you want? It checks
a specific directory and grabs a random file from that
directory, then displays it.
if($file = GetRandomPicture($BannerAdsDirectory)) {
$seriescode = substr($file, 0, 2);
print(" <A HREF = \"URL.html\"><IMG SRC
= \"$BannerDirectory/$file\" WIDTH =
\"$banneradswidth\" HEIGHT = \"$banneradsheight\"
BORDER = \"0\"></A>\n");
}
function GetRandomPicture($sourcedirectory) {
if($directory = @opendir($sourcedirectory)) {
while($file = @readdir($directory)) {
if(($file != ".") && ($file != ".."))
$files[count($files)] = $file;
}
$randomfile = rand(0, count($files) - 1);
$returnvalue = $files[$randomfile];
} else {
$returnvalue = NULL;
}
return $returnvalue;
}
If anyone can improve on it, let me know. Thanks to
the two guys who posted the links, though. I'll be
sure to check them out once I get a couple of minutes
of free time.
