Displays a random link (or image, or paragraph, or anything from that matter!) on a web page.

Instructions: As always, this is formatted in a nice HTML document :-)

You will need to modify the array "links" to suit your needs.

Open up a script and call function disp_links(number) to bring in the links wherever you want them. The parameter is the number of links you want displayed. They will be brought in as they are listed in the array, so if you plan to pull multiple links, be sure to put a space or a after each of the elements of the array.

Any HTML you're storing as an array element must use single quotes.

Also, you can use ANYTHING with this script, not just links. Whatever HTML you store as an array element (including pictures, paragraphs, linked pictures) will be brought out to wherever the function is called from.
