Alternate Random Quote Idea


Subject: Alternate Random Quote Idea
Hello everyone. I ran this little code by MG and a few others in the know before I decided to post this here.

It's a pretty simple way you can have your cake and eat it too.

I found this javascript that allows you to add your own random quotes to a text/html block by simply using your CMS functions. You can choose to "add block", and insert this text/javascript to have quotes from famous people, you, your friends, ect. Just be careful when adding or changing any quote and follow the layout exactly. You can put an indefinate number of quotes in the block.

I've been running it for a while with no problems.

And lastly a pic of what it looks like on your portal page:

Just call out either bold or non bold text depending on what looks the best. I use bold for a center block, and a side block I use non bold ...bold=<b>

Another example:

random_1250296879_177092

Good one GH, I'm sure it will get used. ;)

I may even try it with random pics that don't have to be part of the IP System. :mryellow:

Thanks, Lopalong. That's a good idea, and thanks for the help in refining the code to be more W3 compliant!

One of the things I like about the code is the spacing is just right, and the text looks smoother than the standard block.

Well here's a pic option that I played with, but like all script, the markup has to be written to suit the location.

I'm not going to support anything like this because there are so many of these type of scripts on the web, and not only that - It gives the user the chance to "Play & Learn" something by modifying it. ;)

So all they need is 6 pics of any size, add a title if they wish and set the paths accordingly. 8)
