Help with PHP

[version4]

Hi

I'm wondering if someone might be able to provide me with a few lines of code to complete the following task in PHP.

I have three text files (a.txt, b.txt, c.txt), each containing text.

The script would randomly take a line of text from each file, merge them to make a phrase and hyperlink it to a url with dashes between the words. The output from the script would be vertical. Each time the script runs, the output would be different.

The script would have a variable x that could be set to say how many lines of output there would be.

Thanks for the help and I have an example below to clarify.

******************

Contents of a.txt

this
that
what

Contents of b.txt

will be
was
is

Contents of c.txt

good
bad
funny

*******************

In the php script, x=5

An example of the output of the script which is vertical consists of 5 hyperlinks.

<a href="http://www.url.com/what-will-be-funny.shtml">what will be funny</a>
<a href="http://www.url.com/this-is-good.shtml">this is good</a>
<a href="http://www.url.com/that-is-bad.shtml">that is bad</a>
<a href="http://www.url.com/what-was-funny.shtml">what was funny</a>
<a href="http://www.url.com/that-will-be-bad.shtml">this will be bad</a>

<?php

 $links = 5;

 $a = file('a.txt');
 $b = file('b.txt');
 $c = file('c.txt');


 for ($i = 0; $i < $links; $i++) {

  $link = $a[rand(0, sizeof($a)-1)] . '-' . $b[rand(0, sizeof($b)-1)] . '-' . $c[rand(0, sizeof($c)-1)];
  echo "<a href=\"http://www.url.com/$link.shtml\">" . str_replace('-', ' ', $link) . "</a><br />\r\n";

 }
