Okay okay, you're going to want to use code similar to what MeEtc posted, but there's a bit of a problem see:

<body style="backgroundImage = 'url(image.jpg)'">

For that to work properly, you'd need to supply the page with a list of images, or supply a way of using AJAX to retrieve the location of another image.

It'd be simpler to have a file image.php which gives you the random image. So it'd be backgroundImage = 'url(image.php)'. And image.php would be like

code:
// generate location to random image
header ("Location: <pathtorandomimage>");
.

Then, you'd have (wherever you wanted the refresh button to go):
<input type="submit" onClick="getimage(); return 0;" /> and use MeEtc's script to get image.php again.

No he doesn't... I know he already has a script which generates the random image (which is why I didn't provide code for that), but if you read my post slowly (which you might needa do, I tend to waffle :P) it's because if you check the source for the page the actual URL to the image is sent to the browser, which would need to be changed somehow - the simplest way being AJAX, of course.

If you want a full AJAX implementation, I'm sure I could rustle up code for that.

my script above works fine, except that it loads the specified image from the cache, instead of re-downloading it. looks like you're gonna need to XMLHTTPRequest it

I used too, now I am using some Nathan code to do it :p. (Because it had to be changed for the MySql Entries and Admin Panel =p.

./James/. says:
why'd you change? :P
SonicSam - New Account says:
Because
SonicSam - New Account says:
when I got the Ubercool Admin panel
SonicSam - New Account says:
all the uploaded images are now added to a MySql Database :P
./James/. says:
ohhh ::
SonicSam - New Account says:
which then I 'approve' or 'decline'
./James/. says:
:P*
SonicSam - New Account says:
which then decides which ones are shown :P
SonicSam - New Account says:
if it was just a php file, all of them would be shown

XMLHTTPRequest is the object used by most browsers (except IE6 and below) to initialize an AJAX session. It rocks.

I've included code in the file I sent you which works with all browsers..

:D.

Thanks :D.

I got the button added and it works perfectly with Jesuswasajew.info :D.

Now it is a little better having the music flow when showing another image.

Thanks Andrew :). Reputation+1 :o.
