Designing turning pages

[iainphil]

I wish to make a virtual book on my website, with actual turnable/flippable pages, in order to "publish" an antholgy of poetry. My idea is to have an open book (page left, page right, with an icon on the bottom of each right page to turn over to the next page, and an icon - or built-in "dog-ear" - on the left page to flip back to the previous page). Hope all this makes sense ... Any ideas on how to create this is an uncomplicated fashion? Perhaps somebody knows of a script which could be used for this purpose?

Do you want the pages to be animated as they turn? Like using Flash, or just click the link and you have a new page. The Flash way is complicated.

Just clicking the link would be fine ....

This can be done quite easily using two frames and a little bit of javascript. Design of the pages to make it look like a book would probably be the most time-consuming.

I would recommend a search at some engine for the terms "loading pages in two frames" or "changing frames using javascript" for the technical details :)

I sound to me all you want is a page with two colums. If so, you can do this using css or tables. Is this all you require?
