trying to do something to where I have the buttons

number1

number2

and when I click on a button, content gets displayed below from html file.

like when I click button number 1, text from number1.html gets displayed, and when click button number 2, text from number2.html gets displayed. not worried about backgrounds and all that, just trying to get text to display on the current page from those other pages when the buttons are clicked.



and my google fu is weak.

you can do it two ways. Either have the content for both buttons on the same page but in hidden divs. Give each div a unique ID. and you can toggle the .style.display from none to block depending on which button is clicked.

OR

you can do it the right and better way and use AJAX.
