Random name generator? any ideas how?

[everlite]

Hi guys,

What i need to create is a list of names and below this list is a blank field
and a generate button next to that. When the user clicks the generate button a
name from the above list will randomly appear in the blank field. As simple as
that :-)

So you brainy bunch of people, forgive my stupidity and lack of html knowledge
but how would i go about creating this simple function/thingy?

Cheers in advance - Dave.

You'll need to use a script to do that. Javascript, ASP, etc.

In whichever you use, create an array that has the names, then generate a
random number based on the total number of items in the array.
