Server Side Include Random Image Displayer is a slightly extended version of the original, and more simple Random Image Displayer. The original simply allowed for a random image to be displayed on the screen each time the page was accessed or reloaded, without the necessity of a Server Side Include. The Server Side Includes version of this same script allows you to have a random image appear together with its corresponding random link, as well as a few more configurable options than the Basic Random Image Displayer. There are several downloading options available below and more information on this script can be found in the Readme file. |

The Readme files at Matt's Script Archive contain detailed installation, configuration and usage instructions that will take you step by step from putting the scripts on your system to using them in your web pages. You should read these through and keep them by you when setting up or installing any MSA script. It is probably not a bad idea to print them out. Each compressed script package contains a plain text version of the Readme file, however the links below will take you to their HTML counterparts.
