Need a script to make certain pages load up randomly

[edbarton]

I want to be able to have a number of index pages, and these should load randomly from the main index.htm page. I will probably have about 5 different index pages, probably named index1.htm index2.htm etc.

I am hoping this could be done with javascript reasonably easily. Any ideas?

Try the following.

[code:1:bd2ce0f092]<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JAVASCRIPT">
<!--

var r_text = new Array ();
r_text[0] = "http://www.aol.com";
r_text[1] = "http://www.msn.com";
r_text[2] = "http://www.yahoo.com";
r_text[3] = "http://www.google.com";
r_text[4] = "http://www.altavista.com";
r_text[5] = "http://www.imaginemn.com";
r_text[6] = "http://www.adobe.com";

var i = Math.round(6*Math.random());
url = r_text[i]
window.location.href=url;

//-->
</SCRIPT>[/code:1:bd2ce0f092]

imaginemn it worked perfectly. Thanks

That worked fine, but one problem with this, and I realise this question is better suited to the seo forum, but it ties in with this topic.

When it redirects on that page how will the search engines treat it, surely the PR won't be the same on the main page index.htm and then all the sub pages?
