Just starting out, thanks.

So,

<?php

$number = rand(1, 10);

include('$number.html'); ?>


I should have prefaced the question with,  New to PHP...

Here's how you generate a random number:
http://us.php.net/manual/en/function.rand.php

There are a number of things you can do with that to select a random file and
include it.  Have an associative array where the random number matches an
array key and the value is the filename you want, is one method.

Just starting out with PHP or is this a homework assignment?   :)

Subject:  Random number generator


On a php web page I want to generate a random number between say 1 and 10 and then use that number to reference a particular file in an include tag.

<?php include('GeneratedNumber.html'); ?>

Is there an easy way to do this?

Thanks
