I want to create something very similar to the "driver download" that is on this page.

How do I create it?

Also.... is there a way to make it work with a database that I have already created with osCommerce????

let me know if there is more information that you need to answer my questions.

Thanks

That's just a simple HTML form that sends the results to an ASP page, which pulls the appropriate results from a database.

if it cannot work using the same database, can you please inform me as to how I would go about populating a database and the code i would use to do something like that....

Having never used osCommerce, I honestly don't know.

That's sort of a broader topic than can really be covered in a forum response. Your best bet is to figure out which server-side language your server supports (likely PHP or ASP), then find a decent book (or online tutorials) for that language. It's not a quick answer, I'm afraid.

Usually something along the lines of database connection. PHP has built-in functions to deal with a MySQL database. I've never used it with anything else, but I know it's possible.
