Hey guys,
I have a side menu on my website, within which I would like a short quote to appear. I would like to make it so that everytime someone navigates through to a different part of the website, a new quote appears/generates at random in this menu. Is this possible? And if so, how can it be done? Many thanks in advance  |

It can be done, using either Javascript (only if the quote is not essential to the site, as javascript can be disabled or unavailable) or server-side programming, for instance PHP or Perl. Either solution requires a bit of (simple) programming.

One of these CGI random-text programs or one of these PHP random-text programs may meet your needs.
