Making a different image come up each day!

[i_know_nothing]

Hi!!
I'm a REAL newbie and as my username suggests, I know nothing! I am trying to create a script that will display a different image each day. I thought one way of doing this would be to somehow involve the date in the filename.... I know PHP can automatically show the date so I thought maybe if I put 2 and 2 together, I could get it to display things on certain days... For example, if say, tomorrow I wanted an image to come up I'd call it 1127.gif (11th november).... SOOOO I tried to do this in PHP but it didn't work:

<?php

{ $image = date("m d.gif") }

right, please don't laugh... I kind of made this up and guessed what to do because I really don't know. Any help would be appriciated. Thanks SO much!

<?php
$dn = date("md");
$image = $dn.".gif";


?>
<img src="<?php echo $image ?>">

Or something like it...
