Random generator

can anyone create a script similar to that process? the ability to push a button, and it randomly displays a line of words from a database. If someone can PM me a script of this, or code it, they're a great person, and I would be glad to give rep points, maybe some NP.

I really need a script like this!

try something like this, i use it for a random domain generator

the text file consists of one entry per line

<?
//Text files to use
$textfile ="http://www.droplister.com/dom_list1.txt";

//Let's randomize these words
$rand = file("$textfile");
$rando = rand(0, sizeof($rand)-1);

?>
<a class="reload" href="javascript: window.location.reload()"><img src="Your Button"></a> for another.
<textarea>
<?
//Print the random name
echo $rand[$rando];
?>
</textarea>

Hi,

Look at the quick reply box here at namepros. Image that "message;" says "Word Generator" and the box where you type the message displays "random text here". Then if I hit a button like "Post Quick Reply" it displays another "random text here" without loading the entire page again. Just the text in the box changes.

DO you know what I mean? Can you edit your script to suit said needs? I really like how it picks from a text list! Fantastic!

The script is loaded inside an iframe on that page. The go button just reloads the page inside the iframe.

Can anyone integrate this script where the random results are in a text box, and the reload action is an image (like a .gif saying GO!, not button)?

page:

<a href="script.php" target="_box"><img src="go.gif" /></a>
<iframe name="_box" src="script.php" width="400" height="50" frameborder="0"></iframe>

script.php:

<?php
$textfile ="http://www.droplister.com/dom_list1.txt";

$rand = file("$textfile");
$rando = rand(0, sizeof($rand)-1);

echo $rand[$rando];
?>
