Script to change text section

[Ben502]

I am looking for a quick and dirty script to change out a bit of text each time a page loads...for example, say i had 10 quotes. Each time the page loads i would like to load a different quote. i think i would prefer to do this with text instead of making them images. Thoughts?

THanks y'all

Ok, something quick and dirty.... ;)

Save this JavaScript in a file called "random_quotes.js":

/** 
 * Random Text / Quotes 
 * Written to element with ID="text-goes-here" 
 */ 
var quotes = [ 
"To be or not to be, that is the question!", 
"Space - the final frontier!", 
"Jack and Jill went up the hill..." 
]; 
var obj = document.getElementById('text-goes-here'); 
if (obj) { 
  var index = Math.floor(Math.random() * quotes.length); 
  obj.innerHTML = quotes[index]; 
}

Link to this script at the bottom of your HTML page, above the closing </body> tag:

<script type="text/javascript" src="random_quotes.js"></script>

Then, in your page, wherever you want the random text/quote to appear put this:

<div id="text-goes-here"></div>

Refresh your page!
