I ended up using srand() to fix. ianh ------------------------ EventHQ - professional online event registration and marketing http://www.eventhq.co.uk On Aug 3, 11:25 pm, Miles J <mileswjohn...@gmail.com> wrote: > I found this very weird bug today, and I am extremely stumped on the > problem. > > I was working on a static ad system.
