Hello forum! I need to design a website where:

1. On main page the user makes a couple selections, like there are three dropboxes and each one has several options. Dropbox 1: Option A, B, C. Dropbox 2: Option A, B, C. Dropbox 3: Option A, B, C.

2. Once they make their selections, they are taken to a new page which has text based on the options they chose. Imagine that for each Option, there is a corresponding paragraph of text. If they chose, for example, Dropbox 1: Option B, Dropbox 2: Option C, and Dropbox 3: Option B, on this new page there will be three paragraphs. I am seriously hoping this makes sense. So this page would look like this:

Paragraph (the one written for Dropbox 1: Option B)

Paragraph (the one written for Dropbox 2: Option C)

Paragraph (the one written for Dropbox 3: Option B).

And, of course, if they chose different Options the final page would have different prewritten paragraphs.

I am so extremely grateful for the help, is Drupal the thing for me? Is it capable of doing this in a fairly straightforward and easy way? Any insight would be very appreciated, I have tried to search for an answer but it is sort of hard to encapsulate this idea - simple as it is - into search terms and I am a total noob. Thanks for any and all responses forum!

You should be able to do something like this using term reference fields and taxonomy. You could create taxonomy vocabularies for each of the 3 categories ('dropboxes'). Then tag the various content items ('paragraphs') with the appropriate terms using term reference fields for each of the 3 categories. And finally, set up a view with exposed filters (one for each category) for users to select the desired terms from the drop boxes and display the tagged content.
