Interesting, Mubs. The only resevation I'd have about using the array_shuffle function is that it alters the arrangement of the items in the array permanantly. IE: you cannot return them to their previous state unless of course one of the *sort* functions does it - for which you would have needed to construct the array into some sort of arrangement to begin with, such as alphabetical.
