// ------------------------------------ Description ------------------------------------------
//
// "The World's simplest PHP Message/Quote of the Day Script" is a simple
// "quote-of-the-day script" that needs access to a MySQL database. It only
// consists of one script that's SIMPLE and hence easy to customize. This is how
// it works: You put any number of quotes/messages/whatever into the database,
// and then the script will show one quote every day. When all quotes have been
// shown, the script starts from the beginning of the quotes again. And if your
// quote-of-the-day page doesn't receive any visitors on a given day, the given
// quote-of-the-day will be shown the next day too. It simple, yet smart.
//
//

// ---------------------------------------- Installation ---------------------------------------
// 1. Upload the quote.php to your web server.
// 2. Change the following variables $DB_SERVER,$DB_USER, $DB_PASS, $DB_NAME
//       (see below)
// 3. Create the needed tables in your database with the quotes.sql file.
//       You can do it from the prompt (mysql -u[username] [-p] [database] < quotes.sql)
//       or you can use the wonderful phpMyAdmin at
//       http://www.phpwizard.net/projects/phpMyAdmin/
// 4. Point your browser to http://yourdomain/quotes.php
// 5. Add your own quotes to the database and custumize the script as you see fit.
