Dynamic Jump Menu Problem in CS3

I'm trying to create a link in a Jump Menu to a Detail Page.php by setting the parameters in the menu item to match a value in a recordset. When selected from the menu, a new page should open with a subset of the original php page. So far I haven't found a method to transfer a value in the menu to a url parameter which can be used by the target php page. Any suggestions appreciated.
Regards to the List

Nevermind. I was over-thinking the problem and adding dynamic parameters, when a simple solution was all that was required.

Dynamic Jump Menu???

I am trying to create a dynamic jump menu (populated from a database). I have a column in th DB named "url" that contains the path of the page of each option. Any ideas on how to make it so that when the option is selected and the "go" button is pushed it takes the user to the page specified in the "url" of the database? Any help is greatley appriciated.

It's missing because it's not in the code. The problem lies
here:
> <option value="<?php echo
$row_menuselect['ID']?>"<?php if
> (!(strcmp($row_menuselect['ID'],".php"))) {echo
> "selected=\"selected\"";}
> ?>><?php echo
$row_menuselect['Name']?></option>
Change it like this:
<option value="<?php echo $row_menuselect['ID'] .
'.php'?>">
<?php echo $row_menuselect['Name']?></option>

How to setup a dynamic jump menu field

I attempted to setup a normal drop down with a button to
excute the values,
but that doesnt seem to work very well... even though the
database has the
correct links within the tables, regardless of what selection
you make you
are taken to the same page all the time.
Is there a way to use the jump menu dynamically? I want the
menu to be
populated from my table, i dont want to have to manually
build the menu....
When i try to use it, it doesnt have the dynamic radio button
to chose a
recordset.. its all manual entry

Man that took a long time to come back with?
But this should work for you.
Add a standard List Box to your page. Click 'List Values' in
your Property
inspector at the bottom of the page. Click the 'lightning
bolt' to add the
labels that you want to display from your recordset, and then
click the
'lightning bolt' in the values column. Choose the recordset
and the field
that contains the ID you want to pass to the detail page. Now
click ok, and
Dreamweaver will have put some code in the value column for
you. You need
to add a
prefix to this that will tell it what page and the name of
the URL parameter
you want to pass.
ie
mydetailpage.asp?ID=<%=the code Dreamweaver Created%>
Ok so you now have the correct values in the list box.
Now open up a second page, and add a Jump Menu to it. Just
add one item
containing anything.
Go to the code view and copy into the clipboard the
JavaScript code that
Dreamweaver created to make the JumpMenu work. Make sure that
you get
everything
including the <script> tags.
<script language="JavaScript">

</script>
Paste this into a similar place on your other document. (just
above the
</head> tag).
All you need to do now is modify the List Menu you created to
use the Jump
Menu code.
You will have something that says:
<select name="select">
Change this to:
<select name="select"
onChange="MM_jumpMenu('parent',this,0)">
That should do it!!!

Jump menu problems in IE

Hello,
I am having trouble with the Dreamweaver Jump Menu. I have
set up a basic page, used the Insert: Form: Jump Menu to navigate
to different pages. It works fine in all browsers with or without
the "Go" button, but it never works in IE 6 or 7. Is this a common
issue with the Jump Menu? Is there some bit of code I need to add
to make it work in IE? I can post my code in here if necessary;
just thought I'd check to see if it was an easy fix first.
Thanks for any advice.

Your markup is screwed up. Compare yours with the following
<ul id="MenuBar1" class="MenuBarHorizontal">
<li><a href="index.html">Home</a></li>
<li><a class="MenuBarItemSubmenu" href="#">About Us</a>
    <ul>
      <li><a href="about us.html">About Us</a>
      <li><a href="calendar.html">Calendar</a></li>
      <li><a href="bus ministry.html">Bus Ministry</a></li>
      <li><a href="subscribe.html">Newsletter</a></li>
    </ul>

Jump menu problem

I am a new user of Dreamweaver and setting up my first jump
menu. I believe I have followed directions properly, but when I
view my jump menu in the browser and try to have one of my list
values transfer to the designated URL - nothing happens. I went
into the Behaviors section and tried onclick to see if that would
work - nothing. I then recreated the jump menu and tried the 'go'
button. That didn't work either. Does anyone have any other
suggestion? I am working on a PC with Windows XP.

Problems with Jump Menu

Hello to everyone in the community.
I have a problem for the jump menu.
My problem is the following:
When I click on the value of I he opens the menu page it returns the correct value most of the menu to the first position.
I wonder how can the value that was chosen in the menu.
It is possible to develop
The following script below
<script type="text/javascript">
function MM_jumpMenu(targ,selObj,restore)
eval(targ+".location='"+selObj.options[selObj.selectedIndex].value+"' ");
if (restore) selObj.selectedIndex=0;
</script>
Note: this menu is jumping into a separate php file, there on the pages where you use the jump menu I made a call to include the file.
Thank you all hope to have a quick return.
God bless you all

Unless your jump menu is in a parent region of a template and you CANNOT edit it in child pages, why not just go to the select tag (jump menu) of your code on each page and for the apporpriate page, simply put select="selected" in the <option> tag for that page?
It may be more work but it will certainly be easier than trying to have a javascript figure out which page someone goes to, especially if they use the jump menu to jump around to several pages in the site.

Jump menu + cfgrid image width height problems

2nd day and no answer of anyone, please help! Just to simple
questions:
1. HOw could I build a cfselect jump menu, since JavaScript
does not work with cfforms?
2. Does anyboy knows why the thumbnail inside a cfgrid does
crop beyond 75px x 70px dimension? HOw could I put a 120px x 94px ?
Thank you!

once I removed the "auto" setting everything worked just fine, the images came in at the proper pixel size, and the thumb nail images where proportional in size seeing how I had a height set of 40 px the width took care of itself.
Any Ideas on where I can find a good tutorial on client login and password to access pages with their content?

Jump menu with pdfs issue?

Im using a mac with cs3 Adobe Suite. Using Dreamweaver, the insert form/jump menu i had pdfs that were on the server already, so when you select a pdf itll pop up and be readable or downloadable. No problems, now i recieved new pdfs, not on the server, (this is how it was wanted) but in a file folder in my directory and now only in firefox will they work, but not internet explorer which is the most current, tried on several machines. Says it cant find the file. I also moved the whole website from my mac to a pc for testing. I get the same errors on two different pcs. Do these pdfs have to be preloaded on a server instead of just being in a file directory? Hope that explains it, new to this somewhat. Btw, the whole website is offline and not uploaded yet fyi. Thank you

Here ya go, thank you

Drop down menu problem IE7

I have a small problem, don't know if you can help at all. I have have upgraded to the latest version of spry and created my spry menu in Dreamweaver CS3. It works great in firefox, but in IE7 the drop down menu jumps up to the top of the browser window, instead of below the menu bar.
When I check using the browser compatibility function in CS3, I get a message "Expanding Box Problem" with the following lines of code highlighted:
<ul>
          <li><a href="testimonials extra.html">Extra</a></li>
          <li><a href="testimonials defender.html">Defender II</a></li>
        </ul>
Here is link to the site, so you can take a look
http://www.efptproducts.com/
Any ideas or help would be greatly appreciated ?

Menu problem with IE

menu problems with IE connected with spry - see site:
1.
http://www.whatwomenwant-tv.com/index.html
(horizontal menu bar - will not display fully, probably to do with
flash)
2.
http://www.whatwomenwant-tv.com/about.html
(horizontal menu bar swerves to the left)
3.
http://www.whatwomenwant-tv.com/streetinterviewswomen.html
(vertical menu bars in questions are all over the page)
thanks 4 help.

I tried in Firefox 3 and IE7 and they both seemed fairly slow
for any action to take place. But IE7 did seem pretty slugish.
It seems that you're already determined what the issue is,
you have waaaaaay too many menu items. Seems to me that that number
of items don't belong in a menu. There are even menus that are too
long to appear entirely on the page, so they can't be easily
accessed without accidentally hiding the menus again, which I did
several times. IN particular:
Cartuchos > Technologica
If you cannot change to a different format to show all of the
items, then perhaps you can split up the menu so that you don't
have too many at one time. I checked the code of your page and it
seems that you've got a lot of other scripting going on there
besides Spry, so is the issue with Spry or with everything else
you're trying to do with that menu. If you can try to recreate the
page with only the menu items on it (and not pulled in dynamically
on the fly), and then add back to your page a bit a time, you might
be able to find out what is really causing the delays.

How do I make a selection on a jump menu open in a "blank" or secondary window?

Please (anybody) if you can help me with this issue, I would greatly appreciate it!
I am attempting to use the jump menu form feature in Dreamweaver. Everything in the feature works fine until I get to "Open URLs in: ....". For some reason only the option for "MAIN WINDOW" drops down and not an option for "NEW WINDOW". At this point I have spent way to much time searching for a solution, even to the point of reinstalling Dreamweaver to no avail. Can someone please take a look at my code and tell me how I can alter the code to make each jump menu link items open in a separate (blank) window. I'm not the best with code, but if you tell me exactly where to put each line of code I can do it!
Again, any help would be greatly appreciated. Trying to meet a deadline and ran into this unexpected issue.
Here is the link: http://www.graphicmechanic.com/DEKALBCOUNTY/portals/visiting-dekalb/index.html
Just in case it helps with the explanation of my problem, I've attached an image of what I'm seeing in the DW jump menu window.

Dreamweaver Vertical Spry Menu Problem in IE7

I just finished setting up a vertical, 3-level spry menu in
Dreamweaver CS3, and when I preview it in IE7, several pixels have
been added in between the buttons, which spreads the menu out and
looks terrible. The problem disappears after I clear the ActiveX
warning, and it doesn't occur in FF. Could someone please tell me
how to fix this??

DYNAMIC SIMULATION MENU IN SEM BPS PLEASE ANSWER

DYNAMIC SIMULATION MENU IN SEM BPS PLEASE ANSWER
Hi everbody,
I cannot see menu "dynamic simulation" and planning function "dynamic simulation" in our company's SEM System. Installation details are so:
Component version : Netweaver 04
Database: Oracle 9.2.0.5.0
SAP_ABA     640     0010     SAPKA64010
SAP_BASIS     640     0010     SAPKB64010
PI_BASIS     2004_1_640     0006     SAPKIPYI66
SAP_BW     350     0010     SAPKW35010
FINBASIS     300     0012     SAPK-30012INFINBASIS
SEM-BW     400     0012     SAPKGS4012
BI_CONT     353     0005     SAPKIBIFP5
Does SAP not support integration with Powersim in this new version of SEM or is there another way to integrate Powersim with BPS? I have seen these menus in version SEM 3.20 with underlying BW version of 3.10.
Thank you very much.
With best regards.

Hi again,
I know that Powersim is sold by own and has seperate license, but to connect Powersim and BPS there is a delivered planning function in SEM-BPS as I read and in "Planning" menu (in screen bps0) was a menu named "dynamic simulation" in Version SEM 3.2, I had seen this menu option in Version SEM 3.2.
I think these menus are necessary to call simulation model that is prepared by Powersim, otherwise how can I connect my Powersim model to BPS?
Can be the problem Support Package level or something that is not installed to system?
Thanks very much

Jump Menu Question

I think I may have posted this question in the wrong forum,
so I'm trying it here as well.
Using the Jump Menu feature in Dreamweaver, I've set up the
following menu that opens a series of PDF files:
<form name="form1" id="form1">
<select name="previous issues"
onchange="MM_jumpMenu('parent',this,1)">
<option>Choose a previous issue:</option>
<option value="../pdfs/Gray Newsletter Feb
08.pdf">February 2008</option>
<option value="../pdfs/Gray Newsletter Mar-Apr
08.pdf">March-April 2008</option>
<option value="../pdfs/Gray Newsletter May 08.pdf">May
2008</option>
<option value="../pdfs/Gray Newsletter June
08.pdf">June 2008</option>
<option value="../pdfs/Gray Newsletter July-August
08.pdf">July-August 2008</option>
<option value="../pdfs/Gray Newsletter September
08.pdf">September 2008</option>
<option value="../pdfs/Gray Newsletter October
08.pdf">October 2008</option>
</select>
</form>
Is it possible to adjust this code in order to open each PDF
file as a new window? I don't want my visitors to get lost (and
they will) by having the page they are on replaced by a PDF file
that has no apparent link back to the page where this Jump Menu
resides.
And I can't add a back link as each PDF file is an existing
newsletter.
Thanks,
Bill

I searched this forum for "Jump Menu" and found the answer to
my problem! (Guess I should'a done that first, eh?)

found the answer in an Adobe Tech Note

Example of select tag before modification:
<select name="menu1"
onChange="MM_jumpMenu('parent',this,0)">
Example of edited select tag
<select name="menu1"
onChange="MM_jumpMenu('window.open()',this,0)">
Thanks, Jim. It works like a charm!

Dropdown menu problem in internet explorer

i'm pretty new to css, and i'm having trouble in regards to
the dropdown menu option (dreamweaver cs3). i've made a basic
template, and everything looks fine (preliminarily!) in firefox,
but in IE the dropdown menus have scrollbars and the word "false"
floating in them. they're also positioned wrong. any advice on
which styles are the problem? i've tried troubleshooting but its
had little effect. here is the link:
