    Default Opening a link within a table cell

    I'm trying to create a simple table with links in one cell that when clicked, will open up the content into another table cell.

    I've been browsing around online but not found any straight answers for CSS.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated

    It's not really a CSS issue. That's an Ajax or Javascript issue. You need the Ajax Dynamic Content script. The demo will show you how to do it.

    This actually could also be done via iframe (deprecated in HTML 4.01 Strict and above), or with AJAX.

    Depending upon the linked page, I would generally recommend AJAX or even perhaps server side code. But if the linked page has javascript on it and there is no server side language available, depending upon what type of javascript code is involved, iframe might still be the best choice (HTML 4.01 Transitional may still be used for iframe).

    Since it is still unclear what you are really trying to accomplish, I'm moving this thread, there certainly isn't a css solution.

    In the meantime, please give us more details, preferably a link to both the page you want to import to, and to the page you want to import.
