I am a small distributor of consumer electronics. I want to create a more
useful "where to buy" tab. On my FP 2003 created webpage I have 20 items,
sold to 100 retailers, in 4 countries. I would like a potential customer to
be able to select a country and get only that countries retailers. Then
select a product and have the list narrowed further, or even just select a
retailer to see which of my items they carry. Is this done with drop-down
menu or boxes to select? I am a pretty novice "webmaster," so any help is
greatly appreciated.

I would be best done with a custom written server-side application and database, based on what is
supported by your web host.

wow, this sounds complicated and expensive. Isn't there a more simple
workaround?

Hi
Thanks Paul, this is the idea. Now I need to find someone who has any idea
how to make this work with Frontpage.
