hmmm ... now I wonder what these things have to do to with each other ??

anyway since I guess using an ad frame is no problem in this line of
work how about having this.cgi as the top frame src :

#!/usr/bin/perl

if (open(FILE, "list.txt"))
{
    @urls = <FILE>;
    close(FILE);
}
else
{
    @urls = ('http://lo-ser.org/some.html');
}

rand(time() ^ ($$ + ($$ << 15))); # you get that, right ??
print "Location: ", $urls[rand @urls],"\n\n";

using "content type" and sticking to an image type should make it fairly
easy to adapt this to a script suitable for use in an image tag.
or (to avoid frames) use

print "Content-type: text/html\nPragma: no-cache\n\n";
print "<img src=$urls[rand @urls]>"
print $restofpage

hope that helps,

x
