Found this on some board only I can't remember who deserves the credit - it was however given freely for those who have PHP installed. You just write it up in a text file save it as say, galleries.php and stick it in the same directory as your gallery list.


<?
$f = file('galleries.txt');
srand((double)microtime()*1000000);
$num = rand(0,count($f)-1);
$url = $f[$num];
header("Location: $url");
?>



Hope it helps

And I should have mentioned have one gallery URL per line in your text file called galleries.txt and link the gallery description to galleries.php


You can of course have several lists and links - just name them all something other than galleries.php/galleries.txt
