Need to Create Script for Daily Horoscope

How can I create a daily horoscope script for my wordpress site?

My vague notion of how to do it has something to do with php, setting up my own database, and populating it.

I'd actually subscribed to a javascript feed, but didn't like it.

Ideas, please?

Why re-invent the wheel.

There is bound to be plenty of scripts out there that will suit your purpose. Try a search in google for "horoscope script php"

  Thanks. My biggest requirement is the ability to write my own text. I'll do some digging.

You will just be able to add that into a good script or at the very least just update the database with your input.

I think I actually tried that plugin, but it posts to the sidebar, which could be okay for now. But, I really wanted to replace the text, and put the scopes in a page or blogpost.

Thanks

Copy the code in the box below an paste it in your page(s), anywhere between "<body>" and "</body>" tags, where you want the horoscope to appear.

Code:

<!-- begin free daily horoscope script -->
<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript">
<!--
/* Please modify value of 'sign' according to your needs. Valid values are: Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo, Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius, Pisces. The value for the day's overview is: General. */
var sign="Sagittarius";

/* This is your unique id, sent to you by email */
var id=1;

/* Do not modify anything from here on */
var url='http://www.eastrolog.com/';
url+='affiliates.php?id='+id;
url+='&top='+escape(top.location.host);
url+='&self='+escape(self.location.host);
url+='&sign='+escape(sign);
document.write('<sc'+'ript type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript"');
document.write(' src="'+url);
document.write('"></sc'+'ript>');
//-->
</script>
<noscript> <a href='http://www.eastrolog.com/' target='_blank'>Free Horoscopes</a> </noscript>
<!-- end free daily horoscope script -->
