Fortune aims to be a minimalist fortune script. Quotes / fortunes with equations in MathJax are supported.
The fortune function gets a random fortune from the quotes array and writes it in the HTML document.
function fortune(){
/* calculate a random index */
index = Math.floor(Math.random() * quotes.length);
/* display the quotation */
document.write("<p>" + quotes[index] + "</p>");
};To do so in the html just add:
<script type="text/javascript" src="js/fortune.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">fortune();</script>Open the fortune.js file and modify the quotes array.
Add the following code to support MathJax quotes:
<script>
MathJax = {
tex: {
inlineMath: [
['$', '$'],
['\\(', '\\)']
]
}
};
</script>
<script src="https://polyfill.io/v3/polyfill.min.js?features=es6"></script>
<script id="MathJax-script" async src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/mathjax@3/es5/tex-mml-chtml.js"></script>To see what fortune.js can do for you, check the index.html file in the example folder.
