sequential links

[jusko]

Hey everyone!!

I have what i think it is a simple question to answer.
I have a button to open a new link in a new browser window. And what i need is that after i press the button, the link opened would come from a list of html. I have, for example, 10 html pages "page1.html", "page2.html", and so on.
I dont want that the html opened would be from a random choice, but i want to be sequential. Example: when someone press the button, it will open page1.html, then someone else press the button again (somewhere else in the world!) the page opened will be page2.html...
I hope that i'm being clear in my line of thought. Is this possible?

thanks people, and cheers!!!

The problem with client side is that it only works on the client side (someones pc). I don't think theres anyway this can be done...for instance you could try



<script language="javascript">
var num = 0

function oneclick()
{
num = num + 1
if num = 10 then num = 1
}

function gotolink()
{
oneclick()
if (num == 1) { self.location.href = "#"; }
if (num == 2) { self.location.href = "#"; }
etc.
}
</script>

<a href="javascript:gotolink()">CLICK HERE</a>


the reason this won't work is because when users come into the page num will always set itself to 0 on their machine so if you're on page 5 and I enter the site then I'll start at page 1 and you'll continue to page 6 so, no I don't think there's a way to do this using Client Side.

You need to use a server side language for this.
