Ok, so I find that asking pretty much anyone other than INTPs (or sometmes INTJs) to explain a general thing about programming is usually a waste of time. Usually I get pretty good answers from INTP/J s so here goes:
I am designing a webpage.
I have designed with code in html and css a year or two ago (one page from scratch)
My current project is due in 1.5 months and I would like it to do the following general thing (obviously this is simplified):
There is a large rectanlge divided into 4. if you scroll over one of the sections it will highlight around the edge and a picture show up beside the large rectangle. When this place is clicked a "zoom in" happens, and the same sort of situation happens again. In essence further and further zooming.
The question:
I know I can do this 3 ways:
1) html and javascript
2) dreamweaver with image maps
3) flash
Flash I dont know much about, but was wondering if it would be much easier/harder than in dreamweaver.
Also, when the "zoom-ins" happen, in dreamweaver, it wouldnt be so much a zoom in as a link to the next picture, while with flash I know you can have a dynamic zoom in (as in you see how its zooming in, not just giving you the final zoom in frame) --is that hard?
Basically I just need a point in the right direction and a "ya you want to be doing that", before I get myself into stuff and realize im wasting my time, (its happened to me many times with various programs.
Thankyas!
