Help Please!: form populated link with javascript?

[JohnnyOhhh]

Ok, so... Im in the middle of putting together a gadget for windows sidebar and everything upto this point has gone very smoothly (although time consuming). Now I have run into a road block. I would like to avoid using php if at all possible... if I were to use php this is what the code would look like:

<?php
$cat = $_POST['category'];
$subcat = $_POST['category'];

include ('/resources/' . $cat . '/' . $subcat . '/index.html');
$cat;
$subcat;
?>

then just have the link manifest itself, unfortunately I have NO idea how to do this in javascript and as I am developing a windows "gadget" I would prefer to have it run completely locally.

i don't think there is a way to include files with javascript the way php does.

You might be able to use a server-side include if PHP isn't available.

Alternately, you could hack the site into a series of frames, and then load the content you want in the frame via javascript.

But, if you want dynamically created content (at least properly), then you need to use some sort of language like PHP.

yeah... I was afraid of that...
