How's that for alliteration in a subject line? Got a simple MySQL table that contains records which are made up of only three fields - ID, quote and author. These are "inspirational" quotes that I want to appear at the bottom of the pages of my website. I want them to come up randomly with every page load. I've posted this on a MySQL board to see if there's a MySQL command to make things simple. But, I thought about building a random number generator in PHP that selects a random number out of the total number of records in the table, saves it into a variable and then have MySQL retrieve that ID. Is this the way to go or is there something simpler. And, if this is the best way to go, unfortunately I don't know how to write a random number generator in PHP so would appreciate any help.
