PHP 4.21 screwed up my random quotes

[israfel]

Here is the code that worked fine before the upgrade:

$quotes=file('lib/quotes.txt');
$number_quotes=count($quotes);
if($number_quotes!==0){$number_quotes.=-1;};
$random=rand(0,$number_quotes);

Then, all I had to do was echo $quotes[$random] but now it doesn't work. Can anyone tell me what is wrong or how to get this working again?

$number_quotes.=-1;

Why is there a dot in there?

Probably meant to say

if($number_quotes!=0){$number_quotes--;}

Is there an srand() statement somewhere?
