Random Quotes

04.11.2006

        Called as quotes.php it will display a single random quote.  Called as quotes.php?all=1 it will display all quotes in an unordered list.  No database is required, and it should be fairly obvious how to add new quotes.

<?php
$quotes[] = "Boys like hugs too.";
$quotes[] = "Ooh! Train!";
$quotes[] = "La rue est a nous.";
$quotes[] = "The future is unwritten.";

if($all==1) {
        echo "<ul>";
        for($i=0; $i<=count($quotes)-1; $i++) {
                echo "<li>".$quotes[$i]."</li>";
        }
        echo "</ul>";
} else {
        srand ((double) microtime() * 1000000);
        $randomquote = rand(0,count($quotes)-1);
        echo $quotes[$randomquote];
}

?>
