    Hi,

    I have a website where i wish to add a database of all 2 wheeler manufacturers. So what i need is a button each for every manufacturer which when clicked opens another page with a set of buttons for every model. when a model is clicked, information about that particular motorcycle is displayed.

    any help will be appreciated.

    Also, would be great if somebody could tell me how do i replace the button with an image in the button bar.

    Thanks in advance

    .btn-toolbar a:nth-child(1){background-image:url("image_1.gif")}

    You will need 1 line per button, set the url to the url of something in your media library, and set the button text to
