Yes i know what you want - but theres no way for anybody but yourself to
know how much or how little php skills you have - some people only need
a pointer and some people need more help .
At the end of the week - just repeat the $temp process to pick another
dealer to be shown - then repeat again the next week etc .
Assuming you have 50 dealers .....
$batman=(rand()%50);
This will pick a number between 0-49
If dealer number 22 is picked then store dealers name No. 22 in the
database or a flat file .
Then retrieve the dealers name from the database or flat file anytime
the index.php is loaded - and anytime it does this - then check the
$temp to see if its older than one week old .
