Help with Links script

droms

Hi There, I was hoping someone would be able to help me. I'm trying to find a piece of code that allows me to have a page open with a top frame with my sites logo etc and load a random Link in the bottom Frame? so the link for it would be (Click here to Visit one of our Recommended Sites) Then the page would load with a frame at the top - Saying Click here to close this frame or click here to go back then in the bottom frame the random site will load..

If someone can help me with this id be very appreciative

Many Thanks

hi droms!

where do you have the 'random-links' stored??

mysql, file, etc...??

to open the window use j-script:

window.open("frameset.php","RLWin","width=800, height=600, left=0, top=0");

the frameset.php has now the framseset-structure:

the yourLogo.php is the page where you have your banner, etc
in the getRandomLink.php you will get the page from db, file an load it into it!!

hope that helps!!

can i not just store them in the randomlink.php file?

thanks - andy

yes, of course!

but store them in a text file!

randomLinks.txt:
http://www.firstpage.com
https://www.secondpage.com
http://www.thirdpage.com

NOTE: make sure that after the last link is NO newline!!!

in the getRandomLink.php you open the file and display it

<?php
// getRandomLink.php
$links = file('randomLinks.txt');
$link = rand(0, count($links)-1);
$page = $links[$link];
header("Location: $page");
exit();
?>

it's just a simple way of a random, because it may happen that the same page is displayed more than once!!
