Hi guys,

Happy new year, need some help.
http://www.sife.org/Pages/default.aspx
If you take a look at this site, on the right you will see a grey box with "our mission" and some info and buttons etc,
I'm creating a simple site for someone and they want one of those on the front page, unfortunately I don't even know where to start making it.
It needs to be pretty much identical to the example and I'll fill in the relevant info/text/links.
Can anyone advise me on how this is done?
ANY help would be hugely appreciated.

Thanks.

One possible solution is jquery tabs. Take a look here.
You'll need some knowledge of javascript do accomplish this.

Hi, thanks for the reply, I have little to no knowledge of javascript so I doubt I'd be able to handle this.

Any thoughts on doing this with flash?
Would this be a good/bad idea?
I think this may be a more feasable option for me.
