Webpage Structure (Proficiency Levels) Advice Requested, Please

[kevinhannan]

Hey Guys,

Thanks for stopping by - I appreciate your time.

I already have the website content/text I want to show -
However, the content is both educational/hobbyist as well as being Beginner/Intermediate/Advanced/Expert.
The site is for disabled people and is/will be free to access.

My problem is how do I structure a website that allows me to:

- Prominently show the apparatus involved
-Allow the visitor to select between Beginner/Intermediate/Advanced/Expert levels so that the webpage is not overloaded with information and text.

Any thoughts, please?

I have spent the last few months researching this,
and I have not found anything that comes close to my model,
so I'm hoping the collective minds here might help (please).

Many thanks indeed.

Kev.

You could use GET requests to distinguish the levels. I'll make a simplish example using php below...

webpage is: http://www.site.com/index.php

on this page

<a href="?level=begin">Beginner</a>
<a href="?level=int">Intermediate</a>
<a href="?level=advance">advance</a>
<div id="content">
<?php
if(isset($_GET['level'])) {
$page_load = $_GET['level'];
if ($page_load == "int" || $page_load == "advance" || $page_load == "begin") {
include($page_load . ".php");
}
}
?>
</div>

The assumes you have 3 files begin.php, int.php, and advance.php with the specific content to each. For a more detail answer please post a link or code.

Hi BlueWalrus,

Sorry for the delay in getting back - I had to nip out.

Many thanks indeed for your reply; it looks very interesting -
and thank you massively for your time and effort.

Yes, please, I'd very much like additional info on this, when you can. ;-)
