Im looking to for a way to make something show up on a %, i need this to work with (if).

example, when the page is loaded text will say Good Day 95% of the time, and 4% says Hello, and 1% says You Win.


Sorry if I'm not making any sense, I'm finding this hard to put in to words.

PHP Code:

$roll = rand(1, 100);

if($roll <= 95)
     echo 'Good Day';
elseif($roll == 100)
     echo 'You Win';
else
     echo 'Hello'; 


Thank you this will help a lot

If you find your NullPointer's script to be generating the same numbers over and over each time you refresh the page, you'll need to use this function to fix it.

Only if you're using a very old version of PHP.

Note: As of PHP 4.2.0, there is no need to seed the random number generator with srand() or mt_srand() as this is now done automatically.

Oh cool, I can't believe I didnt know that!
