I have a MOTD that I want to display as an alert. This works fine:
Code:
<li><a href="#" onClick="alert('test');return false;">quotes</a></li>


But this does nothing:

Code:
<li><a href="#" onClick="alert('<!--#include virtual="./quotes-3.php" -->');return false;">quotes</a></li>


and this is quotes-3.php which echos $comment and by itself, works just fine.
Code:

<?php session_start();

// Load the data file only if needed
if(!isset($_SESSION['array'])) {

// The name of your quote file
$quote_file = "chess.txt";

// Open the quote file
$fp = fopen($quote_file, "r");

// Read the contents and tokenize the file to individual quotes
$quotes = fread($fp, filesize($quote_file)-1);
fclose($fp);

// set the permanent session variable array
$_SESSION['array'] = explode("\n",$quotes);

}

srand((double)microtime()*1000000);
$array_index = (rand(1, sizeof($_SESSION['array'])) - 1);
$comment = strtolower($_SESSION['array'][$array_index]);
$len = (strlen($comment)/2);

if (strlen($comment)<311)
{echo ($comment);}
?>

It won't work because server side script executes before client side script.
