Dynamically swapping one table for another

[FeldmanSkitzoid]

Hi, I'm very new to PHP (though learning, of course), but I was wondering if anyone knows if I can use PHP to swap one table for another without having to reload the page.

I basically just need a point in the right direction, like a good web site with good tutorials on this sort of thing.

Thanks for the help.

u cant, page HAS to be reloaded unless u use a java applet. as for tutorials, just search google or this forum till u find one that suits you.

When you say 'swap a table for another without reloading', if you mean dynamically change the contents of an HTML table, then it can be done with DHTML. This is NOT a PHP thing as PHP will work on the file server side (requiring a reload). You could use an embedded IFRAME that posts to your server (appears not to reload, but actaully does).

http://msdn.microsoft.com and http://devedge.netscape.com/ are good sites to read up from and get the DHTML information on how to update HTML client side.

My point, if I understand what you want correctly, a java applet is not neccesary to accomplish this.
