    im just wondering if there is anyway to use the numbers generated by a random number generator to specify files.

    i.e.
    i have 10 files named 1.html, 2.html etc.. i also have the number generator generating integers between 1 and 10, what i would like is for the number generated to be used to specify a *.html file that will be opened in a frame...
    hope some one knows something that might help (i can't use server side scripting (at least i don't think i can))
    i this is unclear ill try and explain better if i can...

    Easy peasy...

    //This will return you an integer between one and ten.
    var random_number = Math.round(Math.random()*10);


    //This should return random_number + ".html";
    random_number+=".html";
