I can give you guidelines, cause I'm short on time too sorry to write
accurate code :(
Build an array of images and hrefs (if it's fixed put it in javascript
if not generate it from ASP)
var imgArray = new Array;
imgArray[0].imgSrc = "src to image1";
imgArray[0].href = "href of image1";
imgArray[1].imgSrc = "src to image2";
imgArray[1].href = "href of image2";
....
have the href object created on the page or add it dynamically using
DOM.
1 assume it's created like this:
<a id="randomHrefA" href="#"><img id="randomHrefImg"src=""/></a>
and on the body onload call a function:
function putRandomLink() {
var nr = Math.random() * imgArray.length;
document.getElementById("randomHrefA").href = imgArray[nr].href;
document.getElementById("randomHrefImg").src = imgArray[nr].imgSrc;
}
add this to the <body> tag
<body onload="putRandomLink()">
finally I provided some (untested) code too :)
this will pick a random image with its href and put it in the link.
good luck
