I have an automotive website and im looking for ideas on how to create a VIN (vehicle identification number) decoder.

What I have in mind is a box or boxes where a user puts in the VIN number of his/her car and then clicks submit.  A page would come up with this number decoded.  

Example;

123456789 - persons VIN number


After clicking submit, a page (or pop up box) would come up with this number decoded similar to this:

1-Chevrolet
23-Model of car here
45-Body style here
6-year of car
789-number of car


Any ideas on how to accomplish something this? What's the best method? A sample code that I could alter to my needs would be fantastic!


Thanks,


Bob
