Sorry I should have explained it better. My php will get the record. I just
need help using jquery to get the record every (set time, 60 seconds 120
seconds or when the user clicks next)

Basically I want to add a side module to the page which has recent posts
with a avatar of the person who made the post and a brief dscription of the
post and a link to the post. This will change every ("set time" automaticaly
or if the user clicks next it will pull another random record)

I just need some help with the function to request a new record via ajax
every xxx time or when user clicks next. I can pull a random record no
problem with $ajax and load it into my area I need, just telling the script
to get a new record duration is where im stuck.

Sorry and thanks,

Dave

I agree with Michel. Keep the javascript a simple request with no params and
let the server script (or even the DB) do the randomising.
