Default Linking to a table - 07-29-2006 , 06:23 AM






I am new to dreamweaver. Just trying it out right now. But I am trying to set
up several buttons that when pushed the only thing that changes would be a
table. So we have the main page which never changes only a table on the page
changes. Please Help thanks

This is a commonly asked 'newbie' question - you can probably find many
answers by searching here -

The short answer is that HTML doesn't provide a way to make a non-framed
page act like a framed page (which is what you are asking for).

Most of the answers are questions back to you, like "Why would you want to
do that?". And most people respond "I don't want the whole page to reload
when I click". Would that be you? If it is, then don't worry about it.
Once the graphic elements on your page are fetched from the server, and then
cached locally, they are reloaded from the cache and the whole thing happens
lickety split.

I would be possible to do what you ask using custom javascript, or using
server-side scripting, but I'm guessing those are beyond your grasp right
now.

A suggestion to you, though, would be to read and learn as much as you can
about HTML and CSS - a bit of knowledge in those areas will make your
learning curve so much easier.
