texte = Grant you said to bring up the random sort when 4 got into beta. Now? Linux, webcat 3.08I have an opt-in subscribers.db which is growing daily. I want to pick a random winner of a prize from that db each week. I use:[Search db=subscribers.db &wnEmailAddressdata=feeling-goods.com &EmailAddresswbrk=@ &subscriberNumsort=1 &subscriberNumsdir=ra &max=1&allhit=1]I hit the template and it displays one record. I force reload the page and get a different result. I force reload a third time and I see the same result as the first loading... I *always* get one of two records (after force reloading about 25 times)... until another subscriber opts in. Then it's a different pair of records that come up every reload. etc.-John############################################################# This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list .
