Hi
I'm wondering if someone might be able to provide me with a few lines of code to complete the following task in PHP.
I have three text files (a.txt, b.txt, c.txt), each containing text.
The script would randomly take a line of text from each file, merge them to make a phrase and hyperlink it to a url with dashes between the words. The output from the script would be vertical. Each time the script runs, the output would be different.
The script would have a variable x that could be set to say how many lines of output there would be.
Thanks for the help and I have an example below to clarify.
******************
Contents of a.txt
this
that
what
Contents of b.txt
will be
was
is
Contents of c.txt
good
bad
funny
*******************
In the php script, x=5
An example of the output of the script which is vertical consists of 5 hyperlinks.
