Is the text in the Div to be changed sequentially or randomly, ie you have text1, text2, text3, etc. If you have text1 currently displayed do you want text2 to be displayed on refresh or can it be either text2 or text3.

This link is discussing something similar, with an example script: http://www.dynamicdrive.com/forums/s...ad.php?t=45102

Also thiis is referring to quotes there should be no unreasonable limit to the amount of text attached to each variable.

See if this points you in the right direction

i have JavaScript for refreshing images randomly.....

Code:

<head>

<style type="text/css">
div#container {
width:320px; margin-left:10px; margin-top:5px;}
img#random {
width:320px;
height:150px;
}
</style> 
<script type="text/javascript">
//<![CDATA[

var images=new Array();
images[0]="images/1.jpg";
images[1]="images/2.jpg";
images[2]="images/3.jpg";
images[3]="images/4.jpg";
images[4]="images/5.jpg";
images[5]="images/6.jpg";

function randomImage() {
var i=Math.floor(Math.random()*images.length);
document.getElementById("customerreviews").src=images[i];
}
onload=randomImage;
//]]>
</script>

</head> 

<body>
<div id="container"><img id="random" src="" alt=""/></div> 
</body>

Try using the function listed on the link for random quotes.

That should give different text on page refresh as well as when the page is opened if it is called inside your Div.

i didn't understand you. Which function you are talking about.

please can you provide me with proper code

Here is a fairly simple script for displaying random text/quotes

Code:

function write_quote() {
 
    var quotes = [
        'no animals were harmed while making this page',
        'made in ulm',
        'this page was handmade',
        'Get <a href="http://www.mozilla.org/products/firefox/">FireFox</a> :-)'
    ];
 
    var r = Math.round(Math.random() * (quotes.length-1));
 
    // write the quote
    document.write(quotes[r]);
 
    // or replace an HTML element:
    // document.getElementById("quote").innerHTML = quotes[r];
 
}

Here is a link to another way of doing this using an external js file
