Hey everyone,  
I’m trying to get a random background image to load on a non PHP server, and here is what I have so far (attached to post).

I searched the forums and used lostinbeta’s random image script, and I’m trying to get the image loaded. I’m fairly certain that my method of calling image\_rnd in the body section is wrong.

Does anyone have any tips?

Thanks!  
Kirupa 🙂
