AboutKen Ivey Expertise I've been developing websites for almost 20 years. If you have questions like these, I can help! Should I try this myself or hire a professional? What tools do I need? How do I sell products online? How do I make money with my website? Can I create a website without buying expensive software? How do I design a website FAST? How do I market my website? Is a BLOG a website? How do I put video on my website? What is website hosting? When will search engines find my website? OK, I've found a site I like - but now what? Can I make my website a subscription site?
Experience I have over 20 years of practical experience with web-related issues, and some military computer training. I've worked for a computer manufacturer, and own a small technology company specializing in web-design, hosting, and internet media production. I am the webmaster of several sites, and e-newsletter editor for Rotary District 6760 which is comprised of 65 clubs throughout middle Tennessee.
Education/Credentials I'd like to say a diploma from a revered educational facility hangs on my wall, and perhaps someday it will. In reality, everything I know has been self-taught, much of it done so in the hallowed halls of that venerable institution called "The School of Hard Knocks". (I have taken courses at a local community college, and received military computer programming training as well.)
Expert: Ken Ivey Date: 2/15/2008 Subject: Website - randomly select text
Question Dear Ken:
I am building a website and want text randomly selected. I have 50 quotes that I want to randomly select on a daily basis (or anytime someone logs on). Is this possible in Dreamweaver? I can only locate randomly selecting images.
Kay
Answer Hi Kay, thanks for your question.
I just googled "randomly select text javascript" and there are numerous choices. Here is one that looks good. It randomizes on each page load.
