You can probably find a fully compatible script that's already built at

If you want 90% compatability, use JavaScript.

It's estimated that 10% of users have JavaScript disabled, leaving you with the amount you want.

There are, of course, people using older browsers that don't handle CSS well, those who use browswers that have JS turned off, etc. The only NEARLY 100% compatible method would be an animated GIF, though a few people use text only browsers.

You could even use an iframe that loads a page with the message in it, and that page would refresh with a <meta> tag with pages showing the text in consecutive positions.

I'd guess that there's no 100% solution to this one, if you're looking for exceptions.
