Hi Platonides, I have tried the method at JBDirectory.comhttp://jbdirectory.combut apparently, it is still not random. I wonder what could have happened. I click the SQL button at the top (2nd tab) of pHpAdmin and execute the query, after I found that the query box in Query (4th tab) did not work.

Thank you Alex. Yes, I am on shared hosting and it has PHPMyAdmin.

It's a MySQL query. If you have a commercial host (not your computer) running cPanel, it will probably have PHPMyAdmin - you can run the query from there. If you have installed Apache, PHP and MySQL on your computer, you'd be best off using the MySQL administrator program.

Hi Platonides, thank you for your response. I am a real monkey. I will
find
out how to execute that query through Google Search. If you have a read tutorial somewhere, do let me know too.
Thank you.

Your random ids are not evenly distributed. Execute the query: UPDATE page SET page_random = RAND();
