I have a COdeCHarge project in ASP w/ HTML TEmplates. I would like to change the background image of a page dynamically based on Random Numbers. I know how the ASP code which would generate a random number, based on which I shall select an image to be displayed. However I am not sure where should I write the code to change the image dynamically.
On a page where in ASP Code and HTML template are together, it is a straightforward insertion of the code. However over here, since ASP code and HTML templates are in two separate files, I don't want to spoil the HTML template by including ASP code in the page.
What I am looking for is a sort of solution where I can define a place holder tag in HTML template, which can be manipulated in the ASP code. Any ideas?
Thanks for your suggestion in advance.

If I wanted to change the background randomly on each page fetch/refresh I would add a label to the form. Move the {LabelName} tag into the opening tag for the <Body> Like this 'background="{LabelName}"' Then in the Page_AfterInitialize event I would assign the imagename to the LabelName.value.
I haven't tried this but this is what comes to mind.

Use the set tag action. In html set the background tag (<body background={my_background} ...>)
with the set tag action insert the asp you already have and assign the result to a variable (in php $my_background)
Now transmit the tag to the page. That's all
