    Knowing next to nothing about EE yet, I thought I would throw this out there for advice.

    I would like to build my archive page to hold a list of links to all articles on the side and the main container would be a placeholder for the article selected to be shown.

    So user finds the article in the list of links, once clicked, either by AJAX or maybe something built into EE, the database would serve up the article to be shown within the placeholder.

    Is this doable?

    My option B would be maybe to simply fill the placeholder with all articles, hide them, then onclick of list anchor tag, show respective article…

    Could I get some advice here?

    Not sure if my question was clear, probably not.

    Basically I am wondering if there is any sort of module in EE that acts like an AJAX call allowing me to pull down a post without a page refresh?
