Help with script

BDJ
Hello group. I am not a programmer so any help is appreciated. I would like
to generate a random set of letters from a specific list each time a web
page is loaded. For example, from the following list of letters, E T W K S O
Y A, I would like to display a total of 50 letters. Also, this list will
increase as new letters are added, but only 50 will be displayed at a time.
I will use the random results to copy and past into a Word document. I
thought this would be the easiest way to go. Like I said, I know absolutely
nothing about programming and any of your help is very appreciated. Thank
you in advance.
