 * I am trying to replace the READ MORE text in my theme with
 * `<?php the_content('<img src="/images/readmore.gif" alt="read more" title="Read
   more..." />'); ?>`
 * I would like to use random images there :D, but I am confused how to put the 
   tag
 * I tried
 * `<?php the_content('<img src="/images/readmore_'rand(1,4);'.gif" alt="read more"
   title="Read more..." />'); ?> '); ?>`
 * But I get ..
 * _Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T\_STRING in ***/index.php on line 22_
 * Any help 😀 ?
