It's not a house, it's a home.
Hi All,

Sorry, I don't even know the proper term for what I want.

Gmail and Facebook are 2 examples of services that use some kind of technology that acts like flash, but isn't...ie, clicking on a word animates a new box that opens up info below it...Another example is the newsfeed settings on facebook - http://[B]yourschool[/B].facebook.com/feed_prefs.php

Thanks a lot!!!

Steve

AJAX is a methodology more than a language or something that can be solved with a plugin to Dreamweaver. There are tons of tutorials out there; you need to find one that works for you and develop your skills so you can create a page that suits your needs. There isn't really a magic wand for AJAX. There's plenty of frameworks that make it easier, but you still need to know how to put the code together.
