Open the console with ctrl-j and look for error messages.

What is windows.open expected to do? I do not recognise this.

Also, I think you retyped your code. Please copy and paste the actual code (but change URL only)

[Bernd Alheit]

Try this:

var lower = 0; var upper = 100000000;

var url = "http://www.mypage.com/index.php?"+(Math.floor(Math.random()*(upper-lower))+lower);

app.launchURL(url);

You should not name your variable "url", since there's a built-in property with that name and it might conflict. Use myURL, or something.

[Bernd Alheit]

The OP uses this name.

[try67]

I understand, but it should be changed none the less...

You need to select the entire code before running it.
