drop-down choice populates window

I’m putting this if off-topic as I suspect the solution may be not simple Freeway based….

I’ve got 35 products and for each product some 5-10 documents that need to be downloadable links. That will be a bit unwieldy in a single page or table, so I had the idea to have a simple drop-down list from which you choose your product (could be styled, of course) and then a window to the right in which the relevant download links appear - ie. the window is populated with the right links according to the product choice.

Only thing is….I don’t know how to do it!

I’m sure it’s possible, but is this database stuff or can I do it more easily with some simple calls or something?

Ideas welcome!

thx, Hugh
