i am trying to create a "random" homepage... i want to have code on the first frame of my movie that tells flash to "randomly" select frame 2, 3, 4, or 5 each time a user visits my site...

can anybody point me in the right direction?...

frame 1

this.onEnterFrame = function(){
gotoAndStop(2 + Math.floor(Math.random()*5));
delete this.onEnterFrame
}

This can also work using this script:

//first frame

gotoAndStop(random(s)+1);

//

Just replace s with the number of frames you want it to chose from
