Action Scripting?

Sorry for the second post now, but I have one more quick questions that apparently my web developer can't answer either. On our home page we owuld like to generate various quotes that could come up at random intervals. I have a list of 10 quotes or so that I would like to be able to have the page choose from, and then load up only one at a time. Is there anyway inside of FlashMX that I can do this with Actionscripting? I have been looking for things out on the net and have found nothing so far, so figured it was time to post here to see if anybody could help me out. Thanks again for the help!

Howdy...

I don't know how you are loading the quote, but generally speaking, if you want something to be happening in certain interval, FMX has setInterval() function that you might want to take a look at...
Just have the setInterval() function to call a loading routine with the random file name or something and that should be the one that you need...

Basically what I was hoping was this. When a user goes to the homepage, I want them to get only one quote at a time. Then, if they navigate around the site, and click to get back to the homepage, they would get a different quote the next time they are there. Not sure if this is even possible to do, but hoping someone may be able to help me out with this. Thanks!
