randomize header image

to my surprise, i couldn't find anything in the forums thus far, but was wondering if there was a (relatively) easy way to go about randomizing the header image displayed on the main page.

i'd love to have it switch between a series of about 7-8 images.

any thoughts?

The image there is not random, it displays the image according to the page name, which version of skin are you using?

sorry, should have supplied that information in the first post.

i'm currently using gumaxdd 1.0.

Put images under images\header

The image name has to to page name by viewing the source in browser, looking for page name inside <body> tag...

thanks for the reply paul.

however, i'm not sure i fully understand what you mean. i currently have an image i created serving as my header.

\gumaxdd\images\header\page-Main_Page.jpg

in order to have it randomly display one of several images i am assuming i would have to have something like:

\gumaxdd\images\header\page-Main_Page1.jpg
\gumaxdd\images\header\page-Main_Page2.jpg
\gumaxdd\images\header\page-Main_Page3.jpg
\gumaxdd\images\header\page-Main_Page4.jpg

and then tell it somewhere in the css to choose one at random. is that correct?
