Software to organize and navigate information... Does this exist?

[sarahf12]

I don't know if this software even exists, but I'm looking for a program to help me organize, navigate, and view information.

Is there a program that allows the user to input his/her own information, structuring the look (placing pictures, framed text boxes, etc.), navigate by clicking on live internal "links," and possibly features like inserting pull down menus.

Basically, I want something that looks/works like a website, but is exclusively offline and ideally doesn't require the coding involved in website building (though if necessary, I can do that), and would be transferable to another computer? The intention is for me to be able to access and navigate this data, not necessarily to present it, but I would like the presentation to be visually pleasing.

I would also like it to be a program that doesn't take up a ton of ram to run. I will probably have upwards of 100 sections of information to organize at about 3-10 pages each.... Just to make it *more* difficult.

Because I have something *so* specific in mind, I have no idea where to even start looking, and was hoping someone could give some help.

Thanks.

Sarah
