PHP random word generator help

[dragonz]

Will anyone help me make this into a random word generator that makes three random words like this:

RandomWord1 RandomWord2 -(dash) RandomWord3

Right now I'm using three PHP files like this

<?
    $delim = "\n";
    $quotefile = "quotes1.txt";
    $fp = fopen($quotefile, "r");
    $contents = fread($fp, filesize($quotefile)); 
    $quote_arr = explode($delim,$contents); 
    fclose($fp); 
    srand((double)microtime()*1000000); 
    $quote_index = (rand(1, sizeof($quote_arr)) - 1); 
    $herequote = $quote_arr[$quote_index]; 
    echo $herequote; 
?>

And linking all 3 of them to my page with 'include'

Like this

<? include("quote1.php"); ?>
<? include("quote2.php"); ?>
-<? include("quote3.php"); ?>

Which is really a hassle, since I know that all three of these could be together..

I was wondering if anyone could help me kinda merge all 3 PHP files into one simple script so I would only have to 'include' one PHP script that displays all three random words (the third seperated from the rest by a dash).

I'm a total PHP newbie so please try not to laugh.

Thanks

EDIT: Oh, and basically the quote1.txt, quote2.txt, and quote3.txt files that I am using to get my random quotes from use a single quote on every line and pick a random line for each quote.. I would like to have one PHP script that takes the random words from 3 seperate text files and picks a random line to display from the .txt file.

Bet I confused you even more.. Sorry.

try this

<?
$files = array('quotes1.txt', 'quotes2.txt', 'quotes3.txt');

$delim = "\n";
foreach($files as $quotefile){
	$i++;
	if($i == 3){
		print " - ";
	}else{
		print " ";
	}
	$fp = fopen($quotefile, "r");
    $contents = fread($fp, filesize($quotefile)); 
    $quote_arr = explode($delim,$contents); 
    fclose($fp); 
    srand((double)microtime()*1000000); 
    $quote_index = (rand(1, sizeof($quote_arr)) - 1); 
    $herequote = $quote_arr[$quote_index]; 
    echo $herequote; 

}
?>

this is the code working

Thank you very much, that's exactly what I was looking for.

But can you help me figure out why I get this error message?

"Notice: Undefined variable: i in (thephpfile) on line 6"

It comes out to be this bit

$i++;

And thanks again for helping me with the script

EDIT: The script does work very well, but I wonder why I get that error message..

emm put

$i = 0;

before the foreach

It works great! This is exactly what I wanted.. Thank you very much.

I've been looking for something like this for a long time.
