something simple like this should get it...using mt_rand(), $randval will just be a number between 1 and 3...and it just gets tacked onto the end of your flash file (flash_movie{number}.swf) name within the object tag. so anytime the page is loaded, flash_movie1.swf, flash_movie2.swf or flash_movie3.swf will load...everything should be peachy as long as all the movies are the same size, otherwise you will have to do some if / thens or a small function to write the different parameters for the object & embed tags.

PHP Code:
<?php
// seed the random number generator
mt_srand ((float) microtime() * 1000000);
// generate a random number
$randval = mt_rand(1, 3);
?>
