This might just be a small thing but i have no idea how to do it! I have a small bit of knowledge but not much!

I want a "random" banner to match up with it's link

so i want banner1 to associate with link 1 ect...

here's the code. anyone know what i am doing wrong? The banner is appearing as i want it to but the link is coming out like mysite.c0m/1 . The number is being posted to my domain name instead of a new link being create in a "a href" tag

Code:
<?php

$num = rand(1,4);
$web = $num;
if ($num == "1") {
    echo 'hxxp://vvv.xxxxxx.c0m/click-4232665-10489913?tid=1';
} else if ($num == "2") {
    echo ' hxxp://vvv.xxxxxxxx.c0m/click-4232665-10489913?tid=2';
} else if ($num == "3") {
    echo ' hxxp://vvv.xxxxxxxxx.c0m/click-4232665-10489913?tid=3';
} else if ($num == "4") {
    echo ' hxxp://vvv.xxxxxxxxx.c0m/click-4232665-10489913?tid=4';
}
?>

//this then is where i am trying to post to....

<div id="ad"><a href="<?php echo $web; ?>" target="_blank"><img src="_aImages/_images/banner<?php echo $num; ?>.jpg" width="535" height="100" /></a></div>

anyone able to help?

thanks

It's ok i figured out what was wrong...sorry for wasting anyone's time

if anyone is wondering just had to change the code a bit

Code:
<?php

$num = rand(1,4);

?>

<div id="ad"><a href="<?php $web = $num;
if ($num == "1") {
    echo 'hxxp://vvv.xxxxxx.c0m/click-4232665-10489913?tid=1';
} else if ($num == "2") {
    echo ' hxxp://vvv.xxxxxxxx.c0m/click-4232665-10489913?tid=2';
} else if ($num == "3") {
    echo ' hxxp://vvv.xxxxxxxxx.c0m/click-4232665-10489913?tid=3';
} else if ($num == "4") {
    echo ' hxxp://vvv.xxxxxxxxx.c0m/click-4232665-10489913?tid=4';
}; ?>" target="_blank"><img src="_aImages/_images/banner<?php echo $num; ?>.jpg" width="535" height="100" /></a></div>
 
instead of
Code:
echo 'hxxp://vvv.xx...';

do

Code:
$web = 'hxxp://vvv.xx...';

Edit: Just noticed I was late :) Obviously this refers to the first post.
