[PHP] Variables
Hi, This might sound really simple but plz humour me :) How can I tell if two text variables are equal to one another? If I use.. if($text1 = $text2) { echo "The variables are equal"; } else { echo "The variables are not equal"; } then the code in the else state is always printed even if I know for a fact that the variables are equal... Any suggestions? James
[PHP] random number problem...
Hi, I've written a picture rotation script, file paths are stored in a file and are called depending on a random number generator.. The problem is that out of 14 possible numbers only 7 are been generated. the code I'm using is... srand ( (double) microtime()*1000); $numbertodisplay = rand(0, (($no_items)-1)); The variable $numbertodisplay only ever takes the values 0,2,4,6,8,10,12. Is there a reason that the only numbers produced are even? Thanks for any help.. James

Re: [PHP] Writting to files.?
Thanks for the response so far... I'm still not sure on how to get the code to start on a new line in the file (yes they are text files). Say I wrote variable1 to line one how do I get it to write the next variable to line two?

Hi, Anyone know how I can write and read to different lines in a file rather than just adding to the text already on the first line of the file? Thanks Zotud
