If you choose the time to change the number as midnight, it would be simpler. If the "ChangeTime" is not midnight, then you have to check the time as well as the date, but, anyway... I wouldn't put it in a database. Although I use a lot of databases, I wouldn't in this case. I would write code into the page, that the page should read the text file, which contains the date, and the number. If the date read is not 'today', then create a new number, then write the new date and number to the text file. NOW you can use and display the number, whether it was changed or not. >> I would like my webpage to show one number each day. >> The number will be >> randomly selected at a certain time of the day.
