You could try this.

Create a php file called urlrotator.php with the following code

Code Select Expand

$version = "v1.01";
<?
$linksfile ="urlrotator.txt";

$urls = file("$linksfile");
$url = rand(0, sizeof($urls)-1);

$goto = "$urls[$url]";

header("Location: $goto");

?>

Then create a text file called urlrotator.txt

Put the links to any videos you wanted rotated in the txt file.

Upload it to a directory on your server and then create a TP Script Block with the code

Code Select Expand


<iframe width="X" height="X" src="http://yoursite/scriptfolder/urlrotator.php"></iframe>


Replace the X's with the width/height that suites you and replace the url with the url to your uploaded script.
