Hi. I have a JSP with two columns in a table. The left column lists the URLs, such as www.google.com and www.yahoo.com . The right column supposes to display the result if one of the URLs on the left column is clicked.
Right now, when I click a URL, a new page is displayed showing the result, instead showing the result on the right column.
Please help.
If you have snippet of code, I appreciate if you could post it.

You can try it with frameset. The whole page is divided into two parties. The left part is used for show your left column. The other for your right column.But you should use two jsp or html files for each one.

some codes as follows:

<frameset rows="*" cols="205,*" framespacing="0" frameborder="no" border="0">
  <frame src="navigation.html" name="leftFrame" scrolling="No" noresize="noresize" id="leftFrame" />
  <frame src="mainFrame.html" name="mainFrame" id="mainFrame" />
</frameset>

some code fo navigation.html as follows:

<p>1¡¢<a href="http://www.google.com" target="mainFrame">www.google.com</a></p>
<p>2¡¢<a href = "http://www.baidu.com" target = "mainFrame">www.baidu.com</a></p>

Thanks for the response.

Could this be done using table instead of frame, because my boss discourages me from using frame?

Try using IFrames!
Use table to have two columns, left with hyper links and the right column will have the iFrame with a specific id value. The hyper links href attribute will call a java script method instead of having link in it. Write a java script method to change the src attribute of the iFrame when user clicks on the hyper link.
