Can anyone help out to meet this criteria

hi to all

i'm a beginner to java i have been trying to create something like the interface is divided into two panes on the left side buttons appear and on the right side content of the button is displays so when you click a button on the left side then the contents will be changed on the right side accordingly the button is pressed

can anyone tell me which method i should use to meet this criteria
i even tried JsplitPane but i exactly don't what to use

A JSplitPane with on the right side a JPanel that uses a CardLayout. Use the Java tutorial from Oracle for more information on that last class.
