Link on one side - Response on the other

Client would like two columns on a given page. One column has text with links.
When you click on a link the text changes in the other column. In the past I
would have used Frames. What is the best way to do this now?

I use both GLCS2 and DWCS3, but I am not savvy with special coding.

Use DW's Set Text behavior. Click on a link on one side, and the behavior
changes the text content on the other.

Murray,

I'll look for "Set Text Behavior" and see what how it goes. Thank you for pointing me in the right direction.

Linda

It's a pretty cool behavior that will let you do all sorts of slick
things....

Th3Show,

I just watched the video and bookmarked it. This method is much better for me.
I admit I was starting to hyperventilate when I began trying to decipher all
the different pages with scripts, etc. I am much more comfortable with being
able to use Spry within DWCS3.

Thank you!

Linda

Question: When using this sort of action, does it make the page less accessible
in any way? Or does it affect Google in a negative way? Is it better to have
the links go to separate pages for Google to find the text?

Yes - it makes the alternate content unavailable to anyone using a screen
reader or a device that doesn't support javascript.

> Or does it affect Google in a negative way?

The content is still on the page, so Google would still find it.

That would certainly be more accessable.
