Pharmacology database website   
I have a website that I would like to add a pharmacology
'database' (for lack of a better word) of about 50-75 drugs.
Basically
I want users to be able to click on any drug and quickly have a page
refreshed with that drug's data, with all pages having the exact same
format, i.e. drug indications, contraindications, side effects, etc.
all organized into different sections (probably using CSS table).

My domain (godaddy) doesn't support PHP, so that isn't an option. I
would prefer that this be a client-side application as I would like
the information on the page to change as quickly as possible, i.e.
not
reload the page, or not have to go to the server and back. I
definitely don't want to have 50-75 separate html pages!

Can this be done with JavaScript, AJAX - with some XML or MS SQL
serving as the data repository? I can normally figure out how to
tackle these problems, but the more time I spend in the computer book
isles at the bookstore, the more confused I get. None of the books
seem to list examples of what I'm trying to do.

So my question...is ASP.NET the way to develop this? I know a little
bit of VB, but there's going to be a huge learning curve. Would I be
better off using Visual Studio or Visual Express?

GoDaddy doesn't support a great deal - do yourself a *huge* favour and move 
to a proper ISP...
