God Speaks - Random Quote Generator & RSS

{{LEARN PHP HERE}}
This is a script that I wrote to display the quotes that surfaced on billboards across the country. These billboards contained quotes from God and the source of the billboards is still a mystery. The majority of the output of this script is HTML and Text, however I used a 1px x 1px spacer to force the height to 50px.

To include this script on your page paste the following “PHP include” in the location on your site in which you want the billboard to show. Your site must be in PHP or must parse PHP code when pages are loaded.
<?php
include('http://www.clarksco.com/dev/god_speaks/index.php');
?>

[…] As you may have noticed, SoCalPunit.com has a randomly generated quote from God in the sidebar. The quotes come from the “GodSpeaks†billboard campaign that is sweeping the nation for the second time. […]

God’s Quotes - Random Quote Generator

I have over 140 “God’s billboard” suggestions and am looking for a way to display them on a billboard background like a slideshow. I am not a programmer and use FrontPage to maintain our website. Can you tell me how to accomplish what I would like to do?
Thank you.
David,
If you just want the quotes to cycle through, you can use JavaScript. If you want the transitions between the quotes to have fade in and out effects, you would have to use a Java Applete. While both have the word Java in the name they are not related in any way. Java is a programing language and JavaScript is a scrpting language specifically for web sites. JavaScript is much easier to work with an loads very quickly.
I could probably come with with a JavaScript that would cycle through quotes.
Regards,
Scott
I would love the god speaks script in perl or javascript. Is this possible?
