I'm trying to create some navigation buttons with images (that swap to another image when the images is clicked - ie changes to active state). I want to be able to control these using PHP. All the examples I have seen seem to use text rather than images for this. So is the correct way to do it with Javascript with something like: <td><a href="#" target="_top" onClick="MM_nbGroup('down','group1','news2','images/news.jpg',1)" onMouseOver="MM_nbGroup('over','news2','images/news2.jpg','',1)" onMouseOut="MM_nbGroup('out')"><img name="news2" src="images/news.jpg" border="0" alt="news" onLoad=""></a></td> And insert (somewhere with the other PHP): <?php if(isset($_GET['news'])){ echo 'class="active"';}?> Any help would be greatly appreciated, I have not used PHP before and my CSS is pretty poor too. Thanks

Thanks ... I'll look itno that too ... seems there are bits you pay for and some you don't so will do a little reading... Take care

Thanks everyone ... got enought to go on for now ... will call again shortly I'm sure. Thanks again

Ok ... main page with 3 text boxes that are updateable by only me (or a nominated person). Need to be self updateable text boxes. Similar with a few more pages ... One page will have a list of names. Innitially I have this list and I will type in the data. So when you click their name you will open another page containing their specific information. It will be (i think) a small number of text boxes (say 3) with set questions. The person must register with me first and then will be able to change their page only (ie just the stuff in the text boxes). When they are updated by the individual I would like the updates to go via an email to me just to check there is nothing stupid put up etc (just like a moderator of a forum). This will be the only part of the website that can be changed by someone other than me or someone I nominate - the rest of the site need to be secure etc. There will be other areas of the site that people can submit work to but I don't expect this to be a big part so I will be happy for it to be emailled to me and I will update. Schematically this is my site...

A little ... but you will be only able to change your specific page, not anyone elses.

Pat and all, I want to create a webpage that effectivly has a persons name and their CV. For this web page the CV information will be updated by the individual regularly. I think I will need to do it so only the CV relating to your name can be updated by you and you have to register through a moderator first. So schematically, there will be a page with a list of peoples names (about 200), each linking to an individuals page. Now you mention it I can see some pitfalls but I am trying to make something which is kept up to date and less work for me. Hope this clarifies it a little ...

Thanks so far... Hoping to do both. A page that can have the bulk of information changed by a lay user and also the option of people logging in and being able to change specific content related to them. ie, log on to create your own page with pre defined text boxes then be able to update specific information only relevent to your page.

Simple (and stupid?) question: I want to create a website that the user (with no idea what they are doing) can do the updates from a normal web browser. All I want to know is what this is called so I can search for some info/books on how to do this. I have ok experience in HTML coding and flash ... Thanks for any help....
