Hi there

For anyone who knows php better than me I'm sure this will be easy, but I'd be most greatful if you could post the code to do so for me should you have the time

Essentially I want a script to show a different image for every day of the year, with the images named "1.gif" for january the first, all the way up to "365.gif" for the last day of the year.

I had a quick google and found various ways of doing a month (31 images) but converting the day AND month into a single value seems a little more complicated.

If anyone could do this for me I'd be most greatful

Thanks, Sam

BTW it's zero based, so January 1st = 0.gif and December 31st = 365.gif

rich - nice avatar!

@Kangaroo, You might want to look into either the PHP online help, or download the extended CHM help file for windows. I have got the non-extended help one working on the Mac too using a 3rd party app.

Where from? that sounmds useful

I confess I have little knowledge of php having stuck with java and javascripts as long as I could. However I'm starting to come round to it being better and more compatible

Yes php.net is the official site.

The one with the ASCII design is www.fatal-design.com - I also uploaded another 7 of my old site designs, which you can access from the links at the bottom of the page, below Natalie.

Ah thanks, yes I was checking them out the other day - you used to like semi naked women on sites didn't you! Some cool site links though, and I like your ST site a lot
