    Question EMBED Media Player Question

    Is there a way to get it to pic a media file at random from that directory? Like if i had like 5 Mp3's in one directory it would randomly pic one. I really hope this is possible. If i can do it using this the media player embed code, is there another way? Thanks

    Hiya,

    I dont think EMBED can do this. probably your best bet would to use a server-side langauge like PHP or ASP to read the files from the directory and pick one at random.

    I do something similar here for a random signature -

    Its in PHP.

    Some of the Javascript that I use here to play a random midi on mouseover might be useful:
