Hi folks,
I am looking for a hack for quotes. I wanted a simply script that I can put into my existing design. Doesn’t have to be fancy with sql calls or anything, bust a simple file that can post random quotes. Any ideas?

I’m using a simple PHP script from here; very basic but it does what I need it to.

@ntu – thanks for the link. It has been added to the Wiki on the WP Hacks page.
@rupe – check out the hacks on the Wiki for IdahoCline’s hack. His does require a database connection, but it’s a short and sweet bit of code as well.

You can use the Hello Dolly Plugin as an example.
