```php
<?php 
$dh = opendir("."); 
while (false !== ($file = readdir($dh))) 
{ 
if (preg_match('/.jpg$/i', $file) and $file != "signature.jpg") 
{ 
$filelist[] = $file; 
} 
} 

srand((double)microtime()*1000000); 
$picnum = rand(0, sizeof($filelist) - 1); 

header("Location: " . $filelist[$picnum]); 

closedir($dh); 
?>

```

what is it doing exactly? because if you want it to just go to a random image everytime the PHP script is accessed, then it works fine…

I copied and pasted the script onto my server and it works fine. PHP version 4.3.2
