PHP Question that has nothing to do with RomsHand.com

'Kay, so my friend asked me to put some stupid random image generator .php file on my ftp so he could have a random image sig for whatever reason, and basically, it won’t grab images from outside of the ftp… Like, I could put all the images on my site and it’d work fine (tested it), but I can’t link to an outside site’s folder… So is there any way to do that? Like, if I wanted to have a sig that would grab images from www.blahblahblah.com/images/, as opposed to /home/lame/public_html/images/ or whatever nonsense.

HELP ME NOOOOOWWWW

You could write a php/mysql script that had the image locations in a database and randomly pick out one of the entries.

http://www.hotscripts.com/Detailed/36695.html might be useful if you don’t know php/mysql. It uses a file.

Okay, that worked, but my friend couldn’t use it as a forum sig… I just went ahead and put his stupid banners on my site and used the other random image thing. WEWT.
