| Summary: |
When a code gauntlet is thrown down, CF gurus rise to the challenge by brainstorming about how to best rotate ads based on generated income. The problem is twofold: 1) determining an effective weighting system, and 2) representing the data so an ad can easily be displayed based on its weight. To accomplish the latter, one suggestion involves adding "rand_beg" and "rand_end" columns to a cached query object and populating them accumulatively based on weight. Using Query of Queries and a number generated with RandRange(min(rand_beg),max(rand_end)), you could then pull out the weighted ad selection. Intriguing. |
