Built in Nicolas Maleve's thematic project workshop. More information available here Below is the php code that shuffles the lines of the textfile and prints them to the webpage.

<?php

$goodlines = file('good.txt'); //the 'good' text file to read from
shuffle($goodlines); //randomise array order
$badlines = file('bad.txt');
shuffle($badlines);
$numLines = rand(1, 8); //random number of sentences in review - min 1, max 8 sentences

for ($i=0; $i<$numLines; $i++){

        $currline = $goodlines[$i]; //store the current line  $currline
        if(preg_match("*name*", $currline)){ //if *name* is found, insert the form element 'name'   
                $currline = preg_replace("*name*", htmlspecialchars($_POST['name']), $currline);
        }
        if(preg_match("*city*", $currline)){ //if *city* is found, insert form element 'city'
                $currline = preg_replace("*city*", htmlspecialchars($_POST['city']), $currline);
        }
        echo $currline; //print edited $currline
}
?>
