Hi All I would like to show image files (in a random manner) at the top of webpage. I want to have a folder that contains all the image files. Then I want to have a separate php file (say rotate.php) having logic of selecting the random image file. And want to include that rotate.php file from page.tpl.php. To start with, I followed the marinelli view. Used the images and rotate.php (\marinelli\img\banners\rotate.php). Copied to image files and rotate.php to path where my page.tpl.php is present. In page.tpl.php, I added the line include ("rotate.php"); The rotate.php looks as below. On debugging looks *preg_match *line it breaks. Please let me know why line "if ( preg_match( $regex, $file ) ) {" breaks. Regards Austin *<?php* */*** ** randomly select an image from the current directory and return it* *** ** @todo - consider accepting a local path as $_GET['img'] for overrides* ** to remain compatible with Marinelli's rotate.php* ** * ** (but why? why possible use case is there for linking to * ** rotate.php?img=file.gif instead of straight to file.gif?)* **/* *$file_types = array( * *'gif' => 'image/gif',* *'jpg' => 'image/jpeg',* *'jpeg' => 'image/jpeg',* *'png' => 'image/png'* *) ;* *$regex = '/\.(' . implode('|',array_keys($file_types)) .
