I have a website that stores quotes and users can add some quotes to their favorite list. I want to be able to let those users generate a JavaScript snippet to put in their blog or website and this JavaScript will display their favorite quotes one by one every set period of time say 60 seconds.

I have been using Ruby on Rails which have a lot of the JavaScript out of the box so I didn’t learn any JavaScript library or such.

I was wondering if you know what’s the easiest way to do this whether by using JavaScript library, using Rails plugin or by using some external plugin.

Thanks,

Tam

    Since you probably anticipate your users to show their quotes on blogs, forums, web sites etc., you cannot count on the availability of JavaScript. I suggest adopting an iframe approach: have a page in your site expose content based on a query string, that can be shown in an iframe. Provide the code to the user to paste into his site’s html.

    You want a sample? Look no further than StackOverflow flair :).
