Help with a PHP URL rotator

Please PM me with how much you would charge to fix this for me.

I have a URL rotator that acts this way:

The first time you visit it you see URL 1 from a link list. The second time you see URL 2, and so on. Every visitor sees this same pattern, so you have to visit the site 5 times in order to see all 5 sites.

What I want it to do is show the first URL to the first viewer, URL 2 to the second, and so on then restart the cycle. This way, if I run a test of 10,000 views to 5 websites they will each get 2000 views.

It would be nice if the script could present the same page upon revisit, but this is not critical.

I intend to share this on BHW (both versions).

The full script would be:

Code:

<?php
$file_handle = fopen("links.txt", "r");
while (!feof($file_handle)) {
    $linksarray[] = fgets($file_handle);
}
fclose($file_handle);
$rand = rand(1,5);
$linkurl = ($linksarray[$rand]);
header("Location: $linkurl");
?>
