CSS/PHP load text?

• Buckyball2

  I have a secondary/side bar menu on my page design. 4 or 5 buttons. And I want to load different copy into the area to the right of it depending on which button you click. But without leaving the page as a whole. Kind of frame like but without frames.

  Is it possible?

  And would CSS or PHP be the best route? Or neither? Not very versed in either so please be gentle.

  thanks,
  bB

  what you need is javascript.

  if the content is minimal, you can just load each different view into a JS var, and then switch through them.

  If it is coming directly from a database you need AJAX.
