random redirection php

[cashuu]

hello fellow geeks.
i am having a problem with doing random content. by this i mean you know them pages where its random.php or image.php?id=0 and when you go to them it takes you to image.php?id=42 or whatever the randomly selected database row is.

i think they have one in the portal
http://www.newground..om/portal/random.php

see what i mean.

how do i do this?

Do something similar to this.

# Make sure you have already established
# your MySQL connection and that you have
# already selected your database.

$getRand = mysql_query("SELECT id FROM portalEntries ORDER BY RAND() LIMIT 1");
# Get ID
$randEntry = @mysql_result($getRand, 0, 'id');

header('Location: entry.php?id=' . $randEntry);
