How can I make a PHP script that will choose HTML script randomly or something like that. I want to make it so it will choose 3-4 ramndom squares. Each square has it's image and a text. The squares should be displaid on one line.

Can I just use php for that?

Random script? That's easy:

Code: Select all

cat /dev/urandom > script.php
:D

tsalexey544, you'd better try to explain what you're after in more words. Heuristics fails on short sentences.

What's a square? ;)
An image created on the fly, a "regular" image, a rectangular div?

Are you pulling from a database, or is what you are going to display going to be generated code-side? Or is the data already stored in an array? Give more details.
