var rand1 = Math.round( (fileNum-1) * randomnumber) + 1 ;
files = new Array
files[1] = "http://www.ninemsn.com.au"

<script language="JavaScript">
files = new Array();
files[0] = "http://www.ninemsn.com.au";
files[1] = "http://www.microsoft.com";
files[2] = "http://www.codingforums.com";
files[3] = "http://javascriptkit.com";
files[4] = "http://mandrakelinux.com";

var fileNum = files.length;
var randomnumber = Math.round(Math.random()*filenum) ;
document.write('<iframe id="ticker_bottom" src="' + files[randomnumber] + '" width="190" blah.. blah.. blah..>');
</script>

flytyped - should work though.

you are putting the code in the header section right?
you are writting that iframe line with JS right?

this works<html>

<head>

<script language="JavaScript">
files = new Array;
files[1] = "http://www.ninemsn.com.au.com";
files[2] = "http://www.microsoft.com";
files[3] = "http://www.codingforums.com";
files[4] = "http://javascriptkit.com";
files[5] = "http://mandrakelinux.com";
randomnumber = Math.round((Math.random() * 4) + 1);
var randFile = files[randomnumber];
</script>


</head>

<body>

<script>document.write('<iframe id="ticker_bottom" src="' + randFile + '" width="690" height="600">no frame support</iframe>');</script>

</body>

</html>EDIT: posted while i was coding, oh well
