Apologies if this isn't the right place to ask, but I'm going nuts looking for this...

I'm currently working on a new Intranet for my company, and one of the things the higher-ups want is the ability to show a random trivia question about an employee on each page (or, a new question each time the page is refreshed/reloaded/etc). I'm thinking the best way to do this would be Javascript (or if there's a module that would work, that'd be great), but I can't find exactly what I'm looking for, which would be the following:

In a column (say, on the right), there would be a trivia question, like, "Who climbed Mt. Everest with his pet goat at the age of 18?" I'd like for there to be a little link after it that says "Answer", and to have the name of the person appear under the question when the link is clicked.

Ideas? Any help would be great. Thanks in advance!

Hi craZchica,

Did you ever find a solution for trivia?  I'm looking into the same thing now, and having trouble narrowing any kind of solution down.

Thanks,

Bob

ventrian (www.ventrian.com) has a templatable quotes module, which could take care of the random display of text. As the original poster suggests, you could use javascript or something to create a popup that displays the answer
