Need help with webpage functions

[lordfinesse]

Hey everyone,

I am trying to make a page that has a very specific layout. I've endlessly tried to find documentation to help me but have only found little things here and there. The page I want will be almost exactly the same layout as the following webpage:

http://uvvm.uvic.ca/~zzsyst01/ugdoc.html

Viewing the source code revealed that the page functions using cgi, something that is quite beyond me at this point. I'd like to modify this page's code so that the following are possible:

(1) Selecting a certain radio button and pressing submit would link to another html page, rather than what seems to be a database on this particular page. Each highlighted radio button would link to a different webpage when submit is pressed. *It looks like the pull-down menu would further complicate things; I am willing to eliminate this if need be, but if there is an easy way to make it function well in conjunction with the radio buttons, I'd love some help on that.

(2) I was also wondering if there was any way to do a simple user/password authentication using a form system like this page. If this is not possible, would I have to use a prompt-system?

I would really appreciate any tips or help. If someone has the time, I would love to see the source code of this page modified to work the way I'd like it to, so I could compare the differences and see what changes made it possible. If you have a paypal account, I would be more than happy to compensate you for your time and effort. Just e-mail me at svsdoctordoom@gmail.com. Anyways, thanks everyone, hope to hear from you soon.
