Question

I’d like to use the ‘include’ keyword in php to randomly select a file from a folder and output the contents. How would I do this?

Thanks.

Answer 1

Assuming you know the folder where the files are and that the files are PHP files:

$phpFiles = glob('/path/to/files/*.php');

if (empty($phpFiles) === false)
{
    $randomFile = $phpFiles[array_rand($phpFiles)];
    include($randomFile);
}
