How can I get a random image to pop up on the adopts pages, not everytime it loads.... just randomly, and random pictures? I want to make a sort of trick or treat hunt for my members.Once they see an image they click it and it is added to a special page they can access. I know how to do all that, I just don't know how to get the random images to show up.

What if I made a new table called treats? and inserted all the images into it. Then on the adopts page I could make them echo out randomly. Then once it's clicked, run a query that inserts the image into a new field in the users table. But how could I make the image NOT show up every time the page is clicked?

you can try this

PHP Code:


		
			

<?php

$treat = secure($_GET['treat']);

if(!empty($_GET['treat'])){

$success = 0;

if($treat == 0){

// query for adopt?
$success = 1;
}
elseif($treat == 1){

// query for adopt?
$success = 1;
}
elseif($treat == 2){

// query for adopt?
$success = 1;
}
elseif($treat == 3){

// query for adopt?
$success = 1;
}
elseif($treat == 4){

// query for adopt?
$success = 1;
}
elseif($treat == 5){

// query for adopt?

$success = 1;
}

if($success == 1){
echo "You have successfully collected this treat!";

}
}else{

$show = rand(0,100);

$random = rand(0,5);

// 1 on 100 chance to show an image

if($show == 1){

//random image, modify the $random etc, and add more if ya want
if($random == 0){

$image = "http://image.com/lol.png";
$link = "http://lol.com/adopt.php?id=bl1a";
}elseif($random == 1){

$image = "http://image.com/lol1.png";
$link = "http://lol.com/adopt.php?id=bla";
}
elseif($random == 2){

$image = "http://image.com/lol1.png";
$link = "http://lol.com/adopt.php?id=bla";
}
elseif($random == 3){

$image = "http://image.com/lol1.png";
$link = "http://lol.com/adopt.php?id=bla";
}
elseif($random == 4){

$image = "http://image.com/lol1.png";
$link = "http://lol.com/adopt.php?id=bla";
}
elseif($random == 5){

$image = "http://image.com/lol1.png";
$link = "http://lol.com/adopt.php?id=bla";
}




// now actually paste it

echo "<a href='".$link."'><img src='".$image."' /></a> <font color='red'>YOU FOUND A TREAT! CLICK HERE TO COLLECT IT!</font>";

}
}

?>

all i worry about is spamming treats, you could put some security on it, so it can only be gotten once a time or something :)

Ooooo thank you!! Will try this now =)

EDIT: Ok so maybe I should know how this works. I added in some images and when I refresh I'm getting a broken image every time.

How about show a random image every 10 minutes?

i editted the thing a lil bit, uhm check the echo i did, maybe theres an typo in it, and i think it would require cronjobs or a time stamp in a database table, and delete it every 10mins after it was entered.

Edit: u can experiment with it, i really gotta go back to my homework for tomorrw x3

i saw the error on your site, fixed

[s]Now I get this... Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_VARIABLE, expecting '(' in /home/robynswo/public_html/myadopts.php on line 19[/s]

LoL =) Ok so I'm not good with cron jobs.... what would I need to do?

edit:
actually I'm not seeing the image at all... I changed echo to $article_content .=" too and still nothing.. hmm

i already fixed it for u in my post, it should work now

i found one, it looks like a vampire :D, somehow it changed ur font size? :o?

btw link should be myadopts.php?treat=id

YEa I fixed that part. Thanks for the start! I'll play with it a bit today. If I can't get it working at least I can probably fix it before next Halloween LOL

I've yet to see one O.o

Ha! Got one.. now to figure out how to save it to a user and show it on a new page. ugh.

maybe you're better of with using the adopt.php link and limit it to one per acc
