PHP help within templates

  • Im trying to call a random image with PHP from within a template based on the template in use.

    The code I am usuing is ` <?php
    // let’s generate info appropriate to the page being displayed
    if (is_page_template(‘students.php’)) {
    // we’re on the students page, so let’s show the students quotes

    echo “<img src=\”<?php bloginfo( ‘template_url’ ); ?>/assets/images/quote_students_”;
    echo “<?php echo rand(1,4) ?>”;
    echo “.gif\” />”;
    } else {
    // catch-all for everything else
    echo “<img src=\”<?php bloginfo(‘template_url’); ?>/assets/images/quote<?php echo rand(1,4) ?>.gif\”>”;
    }
    ?>`

    It seems the echo cant handle the <?php calls I have in there..
