Hello...

I am trying to find a script where i have 5 boxes with text that I can rollover and it will swap the text in a single position below...

So say it looks something like a horiz. menu up top...
HOME PRODUCTS etc

and i rollover home, specific text would appear in the box below, and if i rolled over products, the text would change in the box, with product info.... does this script exist... i don't know how to write javascript, but i really need something like this to work!!!

ANY HELP WOULD BE MUCH APPRECIATED!! THANKS KIM

this is very basic, but I think it's what you're asking for
Code: 
<HTML>
<BODY>
<FORM NAME=blahForm>
<TABLE BORDER=1>
<TR>
<TD ONMOUSEOVER='blahForm.blahTextArea.value = &quot;Information about Home&quot;;'>HOME</TD>
<TD ONMOUSEOVER='blahForm.blahTextArea.value = &quot;Information about Products&quot;;'>PRODUCTS</TD>
<TD ONMOUSEOVER='blahForm.blahTextArea.value = &quot;Information about whatever&quot;;'>ETC</TD>
</TR>
</TABLE>
<BR><BR>
<TEXTAREA NAME=blahTextArea ROWS=5></TEXTAREA>
</FORM>
</BODY>
</HTML>

Don't think you can have a link inside a textarea, possibly try using a <div> or something? I've not used them very much so I can't provide much of a solution as far as they are concerned. Perhaps someone else could be of some help?

Do I need to have a text box area? Can't i just have the links show up underneath the Home Box or the Product Box... would that be better?
