I just want a way for the user to select one of the two, American or british and then i want the user to pick a file the belongs to the right group. for instance if user selects english there are files belongs to english system.In addition to that the user download a zip file of englihs system by clicking a button.
To make my story simple, i would like for the user to select an American or english system from a menue and select the file that belongs to the right system.

Something like this?

Code: 
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "[URL unfurl="true"]http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">[/URL]

<html>
<head>
<title>new document</title>

<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
<!--

function doSwitch(on, off) {
    document.getElementById(on).style.display = 'block';
    document.getElementById(off).style.display = 'none';
}

-->
</script>

</head>

<body>

<div style="width: 100%;">
<form name="f">
  <fieldset>
    <input type="radio" name="lang" value="amer" onclick="doSwitch('amerFiles', 'britFiles');" checked />American
    <input type="radio" name="lang" value="brit" onclick="doSwitch('britFiles', 'amerFiles');" />British
  </fieldset>
</form>
</div>

<div id="amerFiles" style="display: block;">
  <a href="#">american_file.zip</a>
</div>
<div id="britFiles" style="display: none;">
  <a href="#">british_file.zip</a>

The code I gave you was an example. Obviously, if there were more than one file, you can add them yourself.

That's exactly what cLFlaVA has supplied for you - help.

I think what you're really asking for is someone to do the whole thing for you, which is not within the scope of tek-tips.

Perhaps you could contract a professional to do it for you?
