you can do that if you're willing to have daily CONTENT as opposed to
full blown daily PAGES. If you choose to do that, though, I would
suggest unsing an extern js file for neatness.

Where would I be able to find something like that?

if that's what you wanted to do, you would create a text file named
"something.js" and copy over the script you have already (as a
starting point). Then you would change it so the array would contain
strings of html instead of URIs. Then you could just have the function
"document.write()" the proper element of the array into the page (at
the spot you call the function). The problem with this is that your js
file could get rather large, and you would often be transferring
unneeded data to the client. If this is a problem, there's another way
you could do it (in javascript), but it's a little bit of a pain.

Oh, and you would change your scipt tag to <SCRIPT
LANGUAGE="JavaScript" SRC="something.js"></SCRIPT> (assuming the js
file is in the same directory).
