Hi,<br />
Is there a way I can show a particular part of a page, depending on the link used to load the page. Example:<br />
<br />
Menu page<br />
link 1<br />
link 2<br />
<br />
<br />
Contents page<br />
<br />
paragraph 1<br />
.<br />
.<br />
end of paragraph 1<br />
<br />
paragraph 2<br />
.<br />
.<br />
end of paragraph 2<br />
<br />
"Menu page" and "Contents page" are two separate pages.<br />
When someone clicks on link 1 in the Menu page, I want paragraph 1 in the Contents page to load, that is, I don't want to show the whole page.<br />
I tried using bookmarks, but although the correct paragraph is displayed, so is the rest of the page if you scroll up and down.<br />
<br />
And, yes, I know that I could split the file into several files, each containing the correct paragraphs.<br />
<br />
Server side scripting is not available.<br />
<br />
Thanks for help.<br />
<br />

Well then you are pretty much out of luck because I know it can be done with php.<!--content-->Use display:none; to hide the paragraph that is not required.<!--content-->Originally posted by Fang <br />
Use display:none; to hide the paragraph that is not required. <br />
What do you do when you want to display the paragraph you just hid?<!--content-->document.getElementById('elmID').style.display="block";<!--content-->OK. If you say so.

I'll try this when I have time. Right now I have too much work to do to do anything else. (Wow! The English-teacher should have seen that phrase ... )
