Here it is:

<HTML>

<TITLE>background colour changer</TITLE>
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
<!-- Begin Javascript
function Random(maxVal)
{
Day=new Date();
hour=day.getHours();
min=day.getMinutes();
sec=day.getSeconds();
return (((hour+1)*(min+1)*sec)%maxVal)+1;
}

function MakeArray(size)
{
this.length=size;
for(var i=1; i<=size; i++)
{this[i]=0}

return this;
}

function SetBkgndColor()
{
colorArray=new MakeArray(7)
colorArray[1]="#FF0000";
colorArray[2]="#00FF00";
colorArray[3]="#FFFF00";
colorArray[4]="#0000FF";
colorArray[5]="#FF00FF";
colorArray[6]="#00FFFF";
colorArray[7]="#FFFFFF";

document.bgcolor=colorArray[Random(7)];
}

I am not good at looking at a code and just pointing out what is wrong with it. But you can go here for other background choosers:
