Hello, thank you, but my code doesn't work correctly.( the part with the urls that I added in). If you run it , the urls don't always match the appropriate image. What am I doing wrong? I spent hours trying to figure out why. The code looks correct I think.

Your help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Technically it is impossible for that to get messed up.

Since you are using the same index of both arrays with the
[ranNum] . Do the array's index's you have setup
correspond to thier rep. pic??

myPics[0] = &quot;Pic1.jpg&quot;
url[0] = &quot;
With your original array generation this has to be
a matched set then when the ranNum is picked it has
to pick the pair...

To help with troubleshooting here's a tip

temporarily add this:

myPics.splice(ranNum, 1); alert(arOut);

Then you will see your script's output.

Got it,

myPics.splice(ranNum, 1);

This line removes a myPics array index..
According to your last post you are not making
that adjustment to your url array
add the red code

myPics.splice(ranNum, 1); url.splice(ranNum, 1);

Make Sensssse...

Brilliant!!!

And thank you!! : ) :) :) :) :)

What did that do to make it work correctly if I may ask?

everytime an array index was selected
it must be discarded so that it can't be selected
again.

So before you added that line, your url array no longer
was a match to your pic Array.

Your pic array was being reduced but not your
url array so you had mismatches.

Did the rollovers work?
