you can use SQL: SELECT id, url, image FROM tblAdds ORDER BY RAND() LIMIT 1
I think thats just about it, that should evenly show them, if you want to bias the displying of your ads you would need to get a count of the ads in the DB, then use some random number generated from PHP to chose which to use.

How exactly can I do this? I have an id field for each ad. How could I display a different ad each time the page refreshes using the id field?
