php to javascript convertion

Hello,

I'm trying to make a nice blog header, but I now realise that blogspot.com
doesn't allow php...

I want to transform my nice PHP code to javascript... can this be done?

The goal is to have 7 td background images randomly positioned without
repetition...

here is my PHP code:

<?php
function random_array($min, $max, $num) {
$range = 1+$max-$min;
if($num > $range) {
return false;
}
$ret = Array();
while(count($ret) < $num) {
$a = "1";
do {
$a = rand($min, $max);
} while(in_array( $a, $ret));
$ret[] = $a;
}
return $ret;
}
$_SESSION['pix_array'] = random_array(1, 7, 7);
$locpic = $_SESSION['pix_array'];
?>

Thanks!

See here is the dilemma, yes most PHP code can be transferred to Javascript in
a matter of speaking. Technically the easiest convert would be if you could
run JSP pages on your server because otherwise there is not much of a way to
convert items like sessions directly into javascript that I am aware of. The
rest of the code isn't too much of a problem, just some minor syntax changes at
most.
