I could not reproduce this, are you sure the browser is not caching
your page?

As of PHP 4.2.0, shuffle() doesn't seem to work for me.
The following code always produce the same output:
function make_seed() { // Taken directly from the manual
list($usec, $sec) = explode(' ', microtime());
return (float) $sec + ((float) $usec * 10);
}

srand(make_seed());
$arr = range(1, 10);
shuffle($arr);
print_r($arr);


Further testing shows that I get the same output if I uncomment the
srand(), if that's any help.

Yes, I'm sure. I've tried running it from the command line with the
same result.
I've done a little more testing, and it seems that rand() seems to work
just fine, so that should more or less exclude the possibility of a bug
in srand().

I've also done a full reinstall (just to make sure) without any luck.
