Author HTML to play on DVD player

I'm looking to take a set of HTML files (a tutorial or instructional
set) and convert it to run on one of those $89 DVD players -- no
computer, no browser, just the DVD player and its little 5-inch or 7-
inch screen. I see this as a very cheap delivery system for
instructional materials, like an ebook. What I'm trying to work with
is a series of explanatory topics with multiple-choice questions. Each
question could branch off to a different line of study, or could
simply branch to a generic "Sorry, wrong answer. Try again" page and
loop back for another choice.

Problem is, can DVD players handle the selection of links on a page?
And, for that matter, does the format support static pages? Does
anyone know of a conversion program for this sort of thing? My Google
searches have been unsatisfactory.
