I'd need one of those functions.

I would want to use the much faster "SELECT ... ORDER BY RAND() LIMIT 1" 
but at least one server of mine doesn't support RAND().
I want to detect that dynamically. no way?

for this old mysql I must use: 
      $res = mysql_query("select xx from xx", $dbi);
      $rows = mysql_num_rows($res);
      return mysql_result($res, rand(1,rand($rows)));

please CC to me also because i'm not subscribed to this list.
