i have 4 different advertisements for my site that link to other forums and gaming sites

how would i make these so everytime the page is refreshed the image changes aswell as the link they go to

now each image has to goto a specific link aswell as a specific image to go with the link

how would i go about doing this :confused:

You don't specify any language requirements, so I'll assume you can use PHP. Following is quick and simple, and modifying it should be self-evident.

Code:

<?php
$links[] = array('image' => 'whatever1.jpg', 'link' => 'http://wherever1');
$links[] = array('image' => 'whatever2.jpg', 'link' => 'http://wherever2');
$links[] = array('image' => 'whatever3.jpg', 'link' => 'http://wherever3');
$links[] = array('image' => 'whatever4.jpg', 'link' => 'http://wherever4');
shuffle($links);

printf('<a href="%s"><img src="%s" alt="" /></a>', $links[0]['link'], $links[0]['image']);

You can't do it with HTML alone, but you can do it with javascript.

Are you wanting to place it on www.trueconsoleghosts.com? If so, you can use the PHP snippet I posted.

Instead of waiting a week for the answer, and being rude in the process!.. I would have googled first....
I just googled 'javascript random images' and this was the first result. Does exactly what you want.
