[/foundItems][/search]See the difference in my snip the &bnamesdir=ra which is the randon generationSo try[searchdb=/nnm/Ads/Ads.db&neRecordNumberdata=0&recordnumbersort=1&recordnumbersdir=ra&allhit=1&max=1]or something very close to that :)Until I put the allhit in there it didn't rotate them out in a more randombasis. I seemed to get the same one or two banners more than the others.In my example above I have certain banners that are only shown on myhomepage that is why it is wobcatdatarq=homepage.===============================================Gary Richter PanaVise Products, Inc. 7540 Colbert Dr. Reno, Nevada 89511 Ph: 702.850.2900 Fx: 702.850.2929 Email: grichter@panavise.com http://www.panavise.com===============================================
