Random Image Script

I do not know the original author of this script.

This script is a php script that rotates your images randomly.

In order to use this script, your pages have to be in .php extention, because you are using a php script.

Make a separate directory/folder for these images and upload the ones you wish to rotate to this directory/folder.

Now paste this code into a file in that directory (you can call it anything.php, for example randomimage.php).

<?php $dir = '.'; // '.' means: the current directory this script resides $array = array(); // nothing mt_srand((double)microtime()*1000000); $handle = opendir($dir); while (false !== ($file = readdir($handle))) { $extention = strtolower(substr(strrchr($file,"."),1)); if($extention == 'jpg' || $extention == 'jpeg' || $extention == 'jpe' || $extention == 'gif' || $extention == 'png' || $extention == 'bmp'){ $array[] = $file; } } $count = count($array); $num = mt_rand(0, ($count-1)); if($count > 0){ $size = getimagesize($array[$num]); $stream = fopen($dir.'/'.$array[$num], "rb"); if($size && $stream){ header("Content-type: ".$size['mime']); fpassthru($stream); //fpassthru closes the stream by itself exit(); } }else{ echo 'no images'; } ?>

Now to make the image rotate randomly, you simply link to this php file, instead of an image file. So for example
<img src="http://yoururl.com/images/randomimage.php">
