All I need is an applet that I can embed in a webpage.. The questions and
chatting will be done in our regular chatroom... we just need a visual
effect for a spinning bottle..

Look at the image..

http://www.volano.f2s.com/spin.jpg

is it possible to let users add themselves as players (their name maybe
stored in a flat text file??), and then have the SPIN THE BOTTLE button make
the bottle-image spin and point at a random player?

* No need for scores
* No chatting
* Must be a user-count (after 8 players the 9th can't add him/herself)

It's just to enhance the gameplay.. right now we just imagine we are
spinning a bottle *lol* and somebody just picks another chatter.. we wanna
have more of a real game...

Any ideas would be welcome... maybe it's more possible in DHTML with Layers
or even a CGI script?

Kind regards
