Ok, my friend and I have different skills. I am competent at CSS/HTML and he is competent at building databases.

The problem is the middle bit, I don't know a whole heap of aspx and neither does he. We realise to get the most from the database (and what we want to do) we will need to code it ourselves rather than rely on the wizards in VB Studio 2008.

Does anyone have any tips on places to learn some stuff on the 'middle bit' since we're both a bit clueless at the moment. :o
 
Thanks for the link and info we managed to get the database working online!!

Now we are trying to customize the tables etc. We have a list of items on a table and underneath a description window. What we have right now is some text called select which when clicked shows the description underneath in a box. This isn't ideal as we want people to be able to click the text itself.

For example what we currently have:

Cat - Small animal, four legs, purrs - Select
Dog - Small to large animal, four legs, eats stuff - Select
Bird - Small animal, two stick like legs, pecks things - Select

DESCRIPTION OF ANIMAL APPEARS HERE WHEN SELECT IS CLICKED

Whereas we want to get rid of the select and just have the name of the animal as the clickable bit:

Cat - Small animal, four legs, purrs
Dog - Small to large animal, four legs, eats stuff
Bird - Small animal, two stick like legs, pecks things

DESCRIPTION OF ANIMAL APPEARS HERE WHEN ANIMAL NAME IS CLICKED

Simple but confusing the hell out of both of us. Any ideas?
