Thanks Ben, yeah its a bit beyond me im afraid, do you know if dreamweaver has a sort by function we can put in for the users of our content or would that use the same methods?

No, Dreamweaver is an editor.

To do a simple table sort, have a look at How To Sort a Table

Kathy,

Please explain in more detail. For instance, is the table dynamically populated? It would be great to see the code of the page to date. The best way to do this is to provide a link to the page or, in lieu thereof, paste the code here.

At this stage I don't believe that you can do what you described. However the data could be filtered to just show that particular category.

That site filters the data from the database and shows the products according to that filter. This involves using a database and scripting languages for both server and client side. The process is too complicated to help you within the confines of this forum.

My suggestion would be to start with a database and scripts that allow you to show the data. From there you can start with filters and Ajax functionality. After that you can add the animations using CSS transitions.

Have a look at PHP CRUD Tutorial (part 1) to start you off.
