Oh, sorry, I got you wrong than. I guessed that you want to load a
random background-image or something like that using that php script. So
if I got you right you are searching for a way to load a different
document using CSS? or what exactly are you looking for? I do not really
understand what you are planning to do, I'm sorry.
The redirection works, no matter how is called. You can call it via the
browsers address-bar, via any HTML.code, it doesn't matter.
the server just recognises that something or somebody wants to get the
file and sends the file you redirect to instead of the file which the
browser (or whatever wanted to get the file) wanted to have... quite
simple, I hope my explanation wasn't that complicated..
HTH, jojo
BTW: please make sure that your posting goes *behind* the quote, makes
reading simpler if you can read from the top to the bottom instead of
the way round... thank you!
And please try to configure your OE better, look at the terrible quotes
in your posts... or, would even be better, don't use OE... thanks again ;-)
