Can anyone help me out here?
I'm looking for HTML or CSS script that will allow me to create a random quote table for my website that only allows those two. No Javascript allowed.
Any help will be greatly appreciated!!!

You're out of luck. Your choice is Javascript or server side programming language.

How is an image going to provide a random quote table? Those two have about as much in common as eggs and hairspray.

I created a series of images, one for each quote and then used an animation program to randomly select the images, thus creating a random quote table, which, when saved as a .gif, was uploaded to an external photo storage site and then given an html code which i put on my site.

So everyone gets the same quotes in the same order and nothing is random on the site itself.

well... now that i've completed it i've realized that... so.. guess not.
thus, its the price I have to pay for not being able to use javascript.

Javascript isn't all bad, you can have it in an external file so it doesn't take up room in the normal markup.
