Yes it is, although wouldn't this be rather infuriating for your visitors?

In any case, if you can run php on your server, the following will work.
Save it as index.php;


$index = array( "index.es.html",
"index.pt.html",
"index.en.html");

include $index[rand(0, 2)];

?>

You can see it in action here:

Hope that helps,

If that's a solution, I'm glad we don't need to see the (real) problem.

Well, yes it is a solution to what the OP asked for. And please remember
that I started my post with the following line;

"Yes it is, although wouldn't this be rather infuriating for your visitors?"

Cheers,
