Hi!
i've already installed the RANDOM Tag... it works fine!
But now i need to link my random images (banner) to different internal and external link targets. Each image with another target.
i've seen it on an website before, but don't remember the link.
i hope someone can help me to solve the problem !?
thnxx,
dfusion

not too sure if you can do this unless you have another script using the tag {PHP:yourscript}
here is a script that might help
you can create a directory with your files that you want to randomize, then call this file below randomizer.php place in structure one higher
eg. /2/cms/mods/random/randomizer.php
then include the randomizer as a php tag from phpWCMS
hope this helps

Code: Select all
<?
//***************EDIT FROM HERE*********************
//Any directory name should end by the trailing "/"
$directoryName = ($_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT']."/2/cms/mods/random/dir/");
//replace the "./" by the name
// of the directory where your pages are placed, note that the trailing "/" is mandatory
// Note that this should be a relative path to the directory where this file is located
//
$pageExtension=".html";// in this case, we are randomly displaying .html files (note the ".")
// note that all pages you want to randomly display should have the same extension
// In the directory specified above by the variable "$directoryName", you can put just anything...
// from images to movies, other subdirectpries....etc.... just anything.... but,
// make sure that the files you want to display randomly are the only one in that directory
// having the extension (in this example ".html") .... so you put there only ".html" files that
// you want to display randomly..... and can add other non .html files as well
// You may change the $pageExtension variale to ".php" , ".htm" or what ever ... but then, all that
// type of file will be randomly displayed!
