Random Link script anywhere?
http://www.misssparkle.com/2006/jokes/wj1.html

My question is about making a link that, to the viewer, reads "Previous Jokes" but when they click on it, it could take them to any one of the previous jokes pages I have set up.

Thanks in advance!

This post will proberly get moved because it is not related to DD scripts until its moved i will not help you, sorry. You should read the rules

Well, there are random content scripts here at DD so, I guess this qualifies somewhat. You might want to look at the random iframe content script.

OK im guessing you will have the URL to the sites with the jokes on. So you could create a function that generates a number then choses a site.

Code:

<html>
<head>
<script language="javascript">
<!--
function joke()
{
	x = Math.random()
	x = x * 100
	x = Math.round(x)
	
	if (x < 10)
	{
		window.location = "http://www.myjoke.com"
	}
	if (x < 20 && x > 10)
	{
		window.location = "http://www.myjoke2.com"
	}
	if (x < 30 && x > 20)
	{
		window.location = "http://www.myjoke3.com"
	}
	if (x < 40 && x > 30)
	{
		window.location = "http://www.myjoke4.com"
	}
}

</script>
</head>
<body>
<a href="#" onmouseup='joke()'>Previous Jokes</a>
</body>
</html>

althought not the best code at all it works quite well.

if x= 10, 20 , or 30 you're out of luck. You could change from > to >= in the && part of the conditionals. or decrement the values by 1 in that part, ex:

Code:

if (x < 20 && x >= 10)

or:

Code:

if (x < 20 && x > 9)

Can the script you're talking about http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamici...ndomiframe.htm easily be adapted to select a random background image, with associated transparancy applied for each image? (Alas, the images that were given to me vary in darkness, and I have to add a bit of text - image credit - somewhere in the page.) This is something I've been needing to do and putting off and the other DD random script I've been thrashing with http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamici...tentcolors.htm just isn't going to get me there. Any chance for a helping start? Your expert advice would really be appreaciated. Thanks.
