I use a random quote box in one of my previous layouts. It uses one of the sideboxes. I am going to guess that you understand about adding things to your theme layer since you already have a few random things going on in your journal layout.

This is the code in my journal verbatim. I am sure if there are any errors (of which I don't think there are(, someone will correct me ( ... )

I am sure if there are any errors (of which I don't think there are), someone will correct me.

That's pretty much how I have mine working. I have one set to appear at the title in the webbrowser and another set in place of the page title under the menu bar.

I know this was posted a few months back but I was wondering if you could help me. I keep getting an era when I add this code. They say there is an unexpected token in the line with $quotes[0]="""If I'd observed all the rules, I'd never have got anywhere."""; Do you have any idea what they mean? Thanks!

Your second problem is caused by a line in your stylesheet:

.pageheaderblock {
text-align: left;
width: 900px;
height: 0px;
margin-left: auto;
margin-right: auto;
background-attachment: scroll;
background-color: #95261f; /*CC8B66*/
background-image: url( );
background-position: center;
background-repeat: no-repeat;
}

If you remove it, it should work okay.

Made the modifications, but the code messed up ??? don't know why.

3 minutes later after looking the code, the reply and everything ...
I'm a dork, I squeezed all code instead of Just the line. :( stupid me.

I finally just squeezed the line. It works, Thanks.
