I'm trying to give a very broad overview of how HTML, CSS and JavaScript interact to someone who has very limited technical knowledge. (Smart, but not in that field) What are some good resources I can share?

Guerilla-coder Javascript filter: Rather than wait 12-18 months to get my project idea into my company's queue, I'm trying to find a workaround. It's going to be ugly. It's going to be messy. And I have no idea how to do it.
Bottom line: My company's web portal has a top frame that I can control, and a bottom frame controlled by Web IT. Can I add an event listener to the top frame that will watch the bottom frame and excecute when it's done loading?

Two webcoding questions:
1) What is the web coding name for hiding/revealing text without reloading a page? For instance,
on this page you can see "Continue Reading" and "Hide this News Article" as
toggles. They appear to be doing it with javascript. What is this
called and are there simple free coding samples available for me to
use? 2) Are there any free plugins that I can use on a blog to play
audio samples? Something similar to what's used in MuFi or Wordpress's
audio streamer, but without needing Wordpress. Thanks!

I need to take form data from an web page and export it to a Microsoft Word File. I have a bunch of form data in HTML which I can convert to XML/JSON. The users will click 'Export to Word Template 1, 2, 3, etc.' and the website will create a .doc file for them to download depending on the template / look-and-feel they select. Can I do this with non-Microsoft technologies like javascript and Python? The key requirements here is the ability to export the same data to different layouts. I have a feeling I can do this with XML / WordML, but the formatting piece looks daunting. What is the easiest way to do this without hooking into COM?

"Set As Homepage" - I have a client who is obsessed with the notion of adding a "Set As Homepage" text link or button to the header of their website - you know, like everyone used to do circa '02. Now setting aside for a moment how worthlessly moronic that may be, I am curious, do any current browsers even permit that kind of javascript anymore - like from a security standpoint? Is it a moot point? (Hoping so)

Does anyone know of a Javascript/DHTML date picker (or calendar widget, or whatever you want to call it) that allows you to configure it so that only specific date choices are available? Specifically, I'd love to find one that lets me set its configuration such that only the first or third Mondays of the month are clickable, or other restrictions similar to this.
Any thoughts?
