Save your images as index1, index2, index3, index4 (for example).

Then generate a random integer between 1 & 4 with $ran_num = rand(1,4);

Then code the path to the image;
$image = 'index'.$ran_num.'.jpg';

Then just get the code to insert $image whereever its required on the page.

randomly rotate, as in, it shows one image, you click refresh and it shows another image.

It does work, but when using it more than once it shows all for of the same images. :(

doesnt make sense, how do you rotate one image?
Unless you mean rotate as in landscape to Portrait or do you mean rotate as in slideshow type rotate?

im trying to randomly rotate 4 images on my website. Ive found a script that will randomly rotate a single image, but not more than one.
If I copy the code multiple times it shows the same 4 images. Ive created a number of php files and called upon a different php file for each image, but still no different.

The code ive found is:

$extList = array();
$extList['gif'] = 'image/gif';
$extList['jpg'] = 'image/jpeg';
$extList['jpeg'] = 'image/jpeg';
$extList['png'] = 'image/png';


// You don't need to edit anything after this point.


// --------------------- END CONFIGURATION -----------------------

$img = null;

if (substr($folder,-1) != '/') {
$folder = $folder.'/';
}

if (isset($_GET['img'])) {
$imageInfo = pathinfo($_GET['img']);
if (
isset( $extList[ strtolower( $imageInfo['extension'] ) ] ) &&
file_exists( $folder.$imageInfo['basename'] )
) {
$img = $folder.$imageInfo['basename'];
}
} else {
$fileList = array();
$handle = opendir($folder);
while ( false !== ( $file = readdir($handle) ) ) {
$file_info = pathinfo($file);
if (
isset( $extList[ strtolower( $file_info['extension'] ) ] )
) {
$fileList[] = $file;
}
}
closedir($handle);

if (count($fileList) > 0) {
$imageNumber = time() % count($fileList);
$img = $folder.$fileList[$imageNumber];
}
}

if ($img!=null) {
$imageInfo = pathinfo($img);
$contentType = 'Content-type: '.$extList[ $imageInfo['extension'] ];
header ($contentType);
readfile($img);
} else {
if ( function_exists('imagecreate') ) {
header ("Content-type: image/png");
$im = @imagecreate (100, 100)
or die ("Cannot initialize new GD image stream");
$background_color = imagecolorallocate ($im, 255, 255, 255);
$text_color = imagecolorallocate ($im, 0,0,0);
imagestring ($im, 2, 5, 5, "IMAGE ERROR", $text_color);
imagepng ($im);
imagedestroy($im);
}
}

?>
