[thelist] ASP Timed Text Display

[Bob Boisvert]

Hi Annie,

Question,

How are the questions that they come up with going to be stored? It seems to
me that if the questions were stored in a database then a select statement
could be included to call a particular question after a certain time.

Hope this give you a spark...


Bob

Hey guys, hope you can help me out on this one :)
I have a client who I have created a contest website for. Part of the
contest is that each day a question will be posted on the website, giving
participants 24 hours to answer the question before a new question is
posted.
They are quite adament about posting the question manually each day, a bit
paranoid about the confidentiality of the questions.
But here's the clincher: they want to be able to post the question earlier
in the day, say 4pm, but not have it appear on the website until 5:15pm.
Is there any quick and relatively painless way to do this?
Thanks!

Annie
