Hello:

A work question.

Not sure if this is the correct place to ask this type of a question..

Is the following possible?

If I have three separate page that list a bunch of links - in my case three separate membership pages for the three types of memberships for various companies...

The membeship status changes frequently so I have to update each page accordingly.

I am told to make a separate page (in addition to the three) that will list all of the companies/memberships on one page. The thing is
I have to figure out a way that when I update - let's say each of the three pages - the single/separate pages gets updated automtically - so there is no need to have to update the membership on two pages.

How would I go about doing this?

Thanks!!

You can't do that with plain HTML. You are talking about dynamic pages, where content needs to be changed frequenly and automatically. You will need a language like php, asp and others to do that.

You have to perform a call to database (or just use a flati file, but this will be tricky i think) and then show the content.

Possibly you can also do this with Javascript, but it will be much more complex. And there are also good chances the the viewer might have blocked javascript and your page will get unfunctional. Use php preferably, as its server side..
