I want several radio text boxes, one of which looks like a slider, and in the background will be a full screen jpeg associated with the current combination of discreet states of the various text boxes. As the user drags the "slider" the jpeg changes, based on the current states of the slider and the radio buttons. I'm a beginner at this again and so I hope I've used these words in a way that will help you answer.

So my question is: is this something that should be done with html and a website, with a standalone written with code from scratch, or an app or template-based website builder that could do these things?

Thanks in advance.

The application is for a genealogical migration timeline visualizer that can be set to large/small scale geographic location (region/state/county), a long/short period of time, so that the user could see a full screen map of the families (in their current state of growth), in a specific place at a specific time.
