Database needed... or not!

[web101]

I need to put up some data on a website. My knowledge of web development is limited. The data is pretty simple- Two lists - "A" and "B" where the user should be able to search out a value of "B" by entering a value of "A".
How should I go about implementing this? What are my options? I am getting names like ASP, PHP, MySQL, Access in my research till now.
But is a database(RDBMS) needed for something simple as this?

Would really appreciate ur insight !

ASP is a server side language that can read from access php is a server side language that can read mysql. Having said that, I would use a server side language and a data base. I would suggest using asp and access because you can lay that out pretty quickly with an access data base. It is possible to do it client side with a text file or something but that is laggy and wont work for 13% of your users.

for something as simple(of course if you do not wanna go server side programming languges) then create an XML file with the required format and use that as database.(both IE and NS6+) support it)
