is there sombody who can helpme witht he following, i am ''pretty new'' to
php and am looking for a script to show images randomly at a 10/ 15 seconds
interval. is there anybody who can help me with this or does know where to
find a good template script for this?
However, what I want to do is include a request.querystring("ID"), so that IF an ID is defined, eg ID=3, , it will display the relevant (not random) information. I've tried this every way I can think and get type mismatches, etc etc. It's probably really simple but I can't see it.

Is it possible to select random images from a directory without creating a "library"
As in I want to have a directory with 25 or so images and want to randomly select an image without having to change the txt document when I add new images.
I am trying to retrieve images from the database and display them in a random order. The order of the images is supposed to change each time page is refreshed. Below is my code, I am using an array to store the images but the images are not displayed for some reason. Code:
View Replies View RelatedI come from a PHP background. I'm modifying a client site that uses some critical ASP code in the backend, so for simple frontend stuff I need to use it too!
I need to make sure that certain images from a random rotation only appear on certain sections of the site licensing issues. Is there any way to easily grab the name of the file that's currently loaded? I want to run some form of regex on it to check for certain words.
I have a bit of a problem.
Basically I have a homepage, when the page loads up it will display images.
However, the images are dived into three groups, as seen below.
Group1 - Image1, Image2, Image3
Group2 - Image4, Image5, Image6
Group3 - Image7, Image8, Image9
What I want is that every time when someone enters the front page, it should pick a group and display that particular set of images on the homepage.
I'm trying to have my program randomly select one of five images. I think my syntax is correct (that is it isn't giving my any error messages and the page loads with the image being replaced by a broken link 'X' box), but I don't know how to display the image to the screen.
Should the response.redirect part automatically display it to the screen or should I have it in some tag like <td><img scr ="lrandom"></td> within my table?

I have a database of images with captions that I need to display at random on an ASP page. Once I have pulled out my recordset, what's the best way to select on item at random from the recordset to display? Also, at first I might have only 5 items in my recordset, how can I avoid the same item repeating 3 times in a row if the person clicks refresh?
View Replies View RelatedI just wanted to know whats the best way to generate 50 or say X amount of number at random without having to repeat any of the previous number...
so far I've the following:
[VBS]<%@LANGUAGE="VBSCRIPT" CODEPAGE="1252"%>
<%
function RandomNumber()
dim theRandom
Randomize
'RandomNumber = Int((upperbound - lowerbound + 1) * Rnd + lowerbound)
theRandom= Int((99 - (0) + 1) * Rnd + (0))
if (theRandom<10) then theRandom = "0" & theRandom
RandomNumber = theRandom
end function

and then I've this in the body of HTML doc: Code:
We have the need to have a random token (a 16 char alphanumeric field) to be used as the key for one of our SQL tables. I have created a random token generator, however after only 3 months in production, it appears that we had an instance where a token that already existed in the tables was created. There are 3810 records currently in the database so it isn't like there are billions of records there.
I contacted an old college buddy of mine who is a mathematician, and he claims, assuming that random really does mean random, that the chances of getting a duplicate token are 1 in 79.5 septillion (79,500,000,000,000,000,000,000,000).
So my conclusion is that this was either a complete freak of nature occurance, or my random generator isn't really all that random. Here is the code behind how I am generating this: Code:
I am trying to generate a random number. I am using randomize and then rnd to return a decimal number between 100 and 120. This will give me a longitude. I am doing something similar to generate a latitude.
I created this on a page which refreshs every minute. I put these points into a map and they are showing up in groups of straight lines. Since rnd is time based will refreshing every 60 seconds return similar numbers?
My page have background image,on that image have more images and text. My problem is whenever resize browser that images are not resized and also not moved correct place .(i.e look not like before alignment).I want to do everything in dyanamic....
View Replies View RelatedI want to display data of a Random Member on my page.. and I did a search in these forums and I tried to do this:
[CODE] SELECT tblMiembros.*, tblDatosPersonales.*

I have a client asking me about random images on his site, basically I am using the following code:-
<%
RANDOMIZE
Response.write("<IMG SRC='../gfx/bg-img0" & INT((3)*RND()) & ".jpg'>")
%>
Agreed its not the best code, but he is finding that the same image could be repeated like three times in a run.
I have an include file which displays the image, and the random script is placed inside that include. So when he is going from page to page this is where the issue lies.
Can anyone help me out here, is it even possible to have a different image load each time, and not have them repeating.
I am using random number to be used as a unique identifir. Since random numbers are in decimals I am using going to convert it into an integer and since I need to append this Id into my URL, I am converting it into a string. SO my formula looks like this.
CStr(Int((Highest-Lowest+1)*Rnd+Lowest))
S0 now every time a new record is generated would this formula generate a unique number for unique identification in the table. I can't see how it can do it. Say A user is assigned a random number; then another user subscribes so how would the server determines that the random value assigned to next user is not already assigned to any other user.
In case if this can't work (a unique ID for every user) then I'll stick to this very same formula and after the random number is generated, I'll check this number with the table in the database and see whether it's been assigned already. If yes, I'll request another random value, if not then I'll go with it. Is this the right strategy?
I have done random image display with the help suggestion from this discussion form. now I want to provide link on each image. i.e. all the images display randomly, should have different link. is it possible? if yes, how?

When u see some sites ,

I have the below ASP function to display a random image from a folder.
<%
Function RandomImage(strPath)
Randomize()
If Right(strPath, 1) <> Chr(47) Then strPath = strPath & Chr(47)
strPhysical = Server.MapPath(strPath)
Set objFSO = Server.CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set objFolder = objFSO.GetFolder("C:Inetpubwwwrootpag-siteimages
andoms")
Set objFiles = objFolder.Files
For Each objFile in objFiles
strFile = LCase(objFile.Name)
strFiles = strFiles & strFile & vbTab
Next
strImages = Split(strFiles, vbTab)
If UBound(strImages) > 1 Then
RandomImage = strPath & strImages(Int(Rnd(1)*UBound(strImages)))
End If
End Function
%>
and this places the image in the HTML
<img name="Intropic" src="<%=RandomImage("images/randoms/")%>" width="211" height="158" alt="" />
but sometimes the script places a ._ before the image file name in the outputted HTML?
I'm afraid I have a technical problem here. Basically what happens is that I'm getting some random errors(like Type mismatch... etc) that shouldn't under normal circumstances occur. Then I connect to my server via remote desktop and Recycle the application pool on which my asp pages run. Errors then disappear

View Replies View RelatedI want to take 3 records from a database. The selection must first take any record marked as priority and then random records (so there could be 3 priority records and no more or 1 priority and 2 random etc)
My theory is to build a recordset filtered by records marked priority, and if there are less than 3, build a second recordset of all the other records.
Questions
1, how can I select random records form the second recordset, without selecting the same one twice?
2, OR, could I write a sql statement which would randomly select 3 records from my table
3, Or is they a way I could write a query (view) in Access which would do the whole lot for me (select the priority records and then random records up to 3)?
I set up a random code for people registering with my site.....
letters="1234567890abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz"

Randomize()
rNum=Int(Rnd()*36)+1
code=code&mid(letters,rNum,1)
next
but for some reason it sometimes saves code as an empty string. When I register a fake name, ie zzz, it seems to work fine, but for some of my members is saves as an empty string.

I'm trying to get one of 3 files randomly included in an ASP page.
The thing is, when the code is printed out, it becomes a comment and it doesn't .. "include" the page..
Btw: I'm a PHP novice, and have no experience with ASP. I just looked up a few randomization tutorials and tried to get this working.
I have a problem creating random numbers. I basically have this
Randomize()
iRandom = Int(10 * Rnd + 1)
If I do not wait a few sec before hitting the page again it will create the same random number as generated a few seconds before.Any idea why it is like that? Another way to reprocess the "bug" is to just fit F5 few times in a row and you end up with the same number being generated. Its annoying and I need some help to "fix" it!
