Another question beside my webshop question…

In my webshop I have 2 places where I can show special offers.  
I have 10 special offers.  
This mean that I want to display 5 offers per place.

I made a movieclip in Flash that contains all the special offers and they fade-out and in, so people get to see al of them.  
I’m now looking for a script that will make the movieclip start playing at a different advert each time a person loads the website.

So I need an couple of Actions that make the movieclip start random at either frame number 0, 24, 48, etc.

In short: a script that makes my movieclip start at one of the 5 given frames at random.

Hope I made myself clear 🙂
