JS variable is not advancing to 10 ?

I have no problem with the code as far as is function goes, but when I added the latest entry to the list it never shows this entry on my page. It only goes to number 9 and does not go to quote[10]. Can anyone see what might be causing this ?

This is my JS code
Code:
<script type="text/javascript">

var moving = "http://www.site.com";

var quote = new Array();
quote[0] = "<div class=\"quoteText\">0</div><span class=\"quoteName\">Kate</span> <span class=\"quoteDate\">(17-06-2011)</span><br><span class=\"quoteLink\"><a href=\"" + moving + "\" target=\"_blank\">View origin of quote</a></span>";
quote[1] = "<div class=\"quoteText\">1</div><span class=\"quoteName\">Fi</span> <span class=\"quoteDate\">(11-08-2011)</span><br><span class=\"quoteLink\"><a href=\"" + moving + "\" target=\"_blank\">View origin of quote</a></span>";
quote[2] = "<div class=\"quoteText\">2</div><span class=\"quoteName\">salome</span> <span class=\"quoteDate\">(30-08-2011)</span><br><span class=\"quoteLink\"><a href=\"" + moving + "\" target=\"_blank\">View origin of quote</a></span>";
quote[3] = "<div class=\"quoteText\">3</div><span class=\"quoteName\">kobi</span> <span class=\"quoteDate\">(09-09-2011)</span><br><span class=\"quoteLink\"><a href=\"" + moving + "\" target=\"_blank\">View origin of quote</a></span>";
quote[4] = "<div class=\"quoteText\">4</div><span class=\"quoteName\">Annie</span> <span class=\"quoteDate\">(07-02-2012)</span><br><span class=\"quoteLink\"><a href=\"" + moving + "\" target=\"_blank\">View origin of quote</a></span>";
quote[5] = "<div class=\"quoteText\">5</div><span class=\"quoteName\">Claire</span> <span class=\"quoteDate\">(02-04-2012)</span><br><span class=\"quoteLink\"><a href=\"" + moving + "\" target=\"_blank\">View origin of quote</a></span>";





quote[6] = "<div class=\"quoteText\">6</div><span class=\"quoteName\">Nish and Jesmin</span> <span class=\"quoteDate\">(14-07-2012)</span><br>"; // from own site.
quote[7] = "<div class=\"quoteText\">7</div><span class=\"quoteName\">Mel</span> <span class=\"quoteDate\">(12-08-2012)</span><br>"; // from own site.
quote[8] = "<div class=\"quoteText\">8</div><span class=\"quoteName\">Melanie</span> <span class=\"quoteDate\">(03-08-2012)</span><br>"; // from own site.
quote[9] = "<div class=\"quoteText\">9</div><span class=\"quoteName\">Richard</span> <span class=\"quoteDate\">(25-08-2012)</span><br>"; // from own site.



quote[10] = "<div class=\"quoteText\">10</div><span class=\"quoteName\">Liz</span> <span class=\"quoteDate\">(20-07-2011)</span><br>"; // from own site.




//quote[11] = "";
//quote[12] = "";
//quote[13] = "";
//quote[14] = "";
//quote[15] = "";
//quote[16] = "";
//quote[17] = "";
//quote[18] = "";
//quote[19] = "";
//quote[20] = "END";


var qno = 0;
var timer;
var run=true;
//*********************************
// Add a message to the DIV 
//*********************************
function addMsg() 
{
		if (run===true) {
					obj = document.getElementById('divQuote');
					//txt = document.createTextNode(quote[qno]);
					//obj.appendChild(txt);
					obj.innerHTML += quote[qno];
					obj.appendChild(document.createElement('hr'));
					qno++;
					if (qno == quote.length-1)
					{
						qno = 0;	//clearInterval(timer); //clear the timer if all the quotes are done!
					}
					//Apply Scroll
					var currentScrollHeight = obj.scrollHeight;
					if (currentScrollHeight >= parseInt(obj.style.height)) // check if the scroll bar is visible now.
					{
						obj.scrollTop=(obj.scrollTop +100); //set the scroll height to scroll by here. (currently set to 100)
					}
		}
}


//*********************************************
// Start a timer to add the messages on load.
//*********************************************
function populate() 
{
	timer = setInterval('addMsg()', 2000); // start an interval timer.
}

WolfShade is an unknown quantity at this point
if (qno == quote.length-1)

Quote 0 through 10 has a length of 11. 11-1=10, so when it gets to the tenth quote, it resets to 0.
