Matt, I keep finding myself back at your site lately…
Was about to build something like this but you beat me to it, excellent.
I chucked it into Drupal’s Kubrick theme port and it works great on sawtell-holiday.com

thx

Super! It worked right away. I have changed it a little bit, so I have 3 different random images on my webpage )

I so won’t even build a site w/o this script anymore! Thank you!

Thanks for the script, it works great on my blog. I eventually figured out that the forced-reload (CTRL-F5) was necessary to test the randomness, and I put the image-fetching script inside of an un-ordered list tag to scoot it a bit to the right so it doesn’t crowd the left edge of my navigation column. If only I could associate a link with each image, that would enable site visitors to click on an image that would take them to a specific section or page of my website. Would that even be possible, do you think?

This script is the best. It took me no time to get it up and running. I saved me so much time. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks for the script! I have gone through multiple ones with multiple variables needing multiple configuration changes. Someone should delete every other random image script from the Internet.

I figured out how to get it to resolve on FireFox. You can’t let it resolve the path for you, you have to hard code the full file path with the specific directory to the rotate.php in the calling code’s img src.

Wow! Thank you. That script rocks. I took a class in C a long time ago, and trying to get back into the swing of things with this webpage. I have to admit seeing that you closed the open file is clean up that’s uncommon to see with people scripting stuff. Good clean code!

Thanks man, you are a genius
For the less expert (like me) I’d like to say that it can’t be tested on local

THANK YOU!! You made hours of frustration go away in minutes with the rotate.php code. I appreciate it.

[...] First of all I ditched the red and gray. I liked it for a long time, but I got to thinking about adding a touch of art. This morphed into wanting to add a picture… then pictures. Then I found a script for rotating the header image. [...]

Club webpage was boring and static… now with a random pic loading, it gives it more pazazz and gives it that “professional” touch that looks oh-so nice… Thanks Matt, your code did the trick!

[...] I’ve just installed a new rotating header for the site, using the random image script from Photo Matt, and the images from Mandolux.com. Every time you refresh this site, a new header image will appear. I think that’s a prett cool way to keelp the site fresh, with, relatively, minimal effort. [...]
