hi im not sure if this is the right place to put this but got a question i building a page on my website and what i want is to have a drop down box with a list of cars in and when you click it it shows a image fo that car

is there a easy way to do this?

or would each car need its own page ?

Either a) Use html only with a page for each car -> gets really nasty with hundreds of files to update

or b) Use something like PHP/MySQL and put your cars in a database. Then write one page that takes a car ID number and shows that car. Then your select box can feed the ID numbers to that page.

I'd've thought it would be easiest to do this in JavaScript...?

A quick Google on 'image menu' turned up this handy script, good except that for some reason it assumes you are using GoLive. Adding Javascript to the search turned up this nugget of scripty goodness.

I'm not promising that this is the best way to manage this, but it should be simple enough to maintain and require no more than the barest of specialist knowledge (that is, you can probably figure it out, looking stuff up on the way if need be).

Good luck!
