Heya,  
So I have 20 quotes that I need to have displayed on this page: [http://juice-t.firetree.us/madsky/flash/fortune\_page/fortune\_page.swf](http://juice-t.firetree.us/madsky/flash/fortune_page/fortune_page.swf)  
Only one should appear at a time, then when you click the button near the bottom of the green box, it should import a different one. I know I could do this with XML, but I’m open to more effecient suggestions if there are any. Also, I’m not well versed in writing ActionScript but I’d like to write this myself. Can anyone help?  
Thanks!
