dynamic text

-----------------------------------

Well, I think that's what it would be considered. Anyways, I have a simple project where I'm making a website that has a drop down menu with a list of items. I also have a table which will define the items. What i want to know is how to change the text in one of the table boxes when a new item in the drop down menu is selected.

This is the code i have so far...




My Definitions






var define= new array()
define["Unicode"] = "unicoded"
define["Hexadecimal"] = "hex"
define["Binary"] = "bin"
define["Compiler"] = "compil"
define["Interpreter"] = "inter"
define["Topology"] = "top"
define["Server"] = "ser"
define["Overflow Error"] = "of"
define["Phishing"] = "phish"
define["Network"] = "net"

function definition(def)
{

}


Select a definition from the list:

  Unicode
  Hexadecimal
  Binary




Definition:
Picture:
two
one





any help would be greatly appreciated.
