Spry menu how to different hover background for submenu options??

Hi
CS4 dreamweaver, Spry menu.
I am trying to design a spry horizontal menu such that the main menu bar boxes accross the top all share a background image and a hover image.
I would like all the boxes in the dropdown area to share a diferent background and hover image.
My problem is in the hover styles. In particular, when the main menu bar accross the top has an option that is not a submenu.
The target css rule is "ul.MenuBarHorizontal a:hover" and is used for any link that resides on the menu bar as well as for links that reside in the dropdown area. I wish to distinguish (via background image, and background hover image) the two types of buttons.
The other challenge is that my menu is dynamic and is using a spry dataset to drive it.
I guess i need a "ul.MenuBarHorizontal ul li a:hover" or something like that.
I hope that i am explaining myself.
Anyone run into this?
Thanks
Jerry C

Hi - I just read
The other challenge is that my menu is dynamic and is using a spry dataset to drive it.
Some time back I did the same for a number of websites - and then realised that search engines dont read the data. ie - the links and they could not be followed since they needed to be generated on the fly in the browser.. So as a result, Google was not going thru my nav menu links.
I then changed to another method (PHP / MySql) for my dynamic menus.
My menu system has some extra CSS to style the subnavs and the currently selected page.
Just my 2bobs worth. Hope it is of some use..

Spry tabbed panels - Different Hover Class for each tab

Already posted this in the general Dreamweaver section, but just realized there was a specific Spry section. So, my apologies for the repost.
I'm setting up spry tabbed panels, and I'm wanting to use an image for each tab, with the text already on it. I've figured this much out by creating a different class for each in the spry tabbed panel css.
However, I'd also like to have a second hover image for each tab. I'm having trouble figuring out how to set up separate classes for each tab's hover state.
Any help?
Thanks.

Customizing Spry Menu - Drop items different from tabs at the top

How can I remove the background image from the dropped down items on a Horizontal Spry Menu while keeping the image for the tabs at the top? It seems every time I change something for the top tabs, the change is carried to the drop down menus as well.
Here is a link:
http://www.monicagraphicdesign.com/Bill/spiritual.html
You can see what is happening if you hover over "About Bill"

Open your SpryMenu.css file. Scroll down a ways to this:
/* Submenu that is showing with class designation MenuBarSubmenuVisible, we set left to auto so it comes onto the screen below its parent menu item */
ul.MenuBarHorizontal ul.MenuBarSubmenuVisible
    left: auto;
    background-color: #000;
    background-image: none;
/* Menu item containers are same fixed width as parent */
ul.MenuBarHorizontal ul li
    background:none;
    width: 8.2em;

Spry Menu and IE Issue (Hover Font Size)

I'm not able to figure out why the hover focus setting works fine with Firefox or Chrome, but I can't find a setting in the CSS to ensure the value for the font on a hover within IE remains fixed. on a hover, the font size increases slighly in IE and pushes menu out of alignment very slightly. I was able to keep the hover size fixed in Firefox and Chrome via the CSS values for the spry, but not sure why IE is doing this and if there is a setting specific to IE that would allow me to keep the hover font size fixed, but not change the values in Firefox/Chrome. Is there any way to lock in the hover value using CSS for the font so in IE it remains constant?
http://oregonstate.edu/~labellec/CDfiles/index.html
Page is under development, but if you open it up in IE, the menu hover causes too much movement. I'm new to CS4, so, any help appreciated.
Thanks,
Chris

Horizontal spry menu floats around differently in FF and IE

Hi there !!
I would like to ask you about the following:
When I use a horizontal spry menu and have it adjusted for FireFox, I get a result I can live with.
Except that the submenu's under the heading 'cultuur' and 'projekt' do not slide down altogether, but are horizontal as well...
How can I fix it so that they are positioned under its 'parent' ??
But that's my minor question, actually...
When I open my site in Internet Explorer (7 & 8) the spry menu looks different; it is far more stretched. First it also floated left, but I managed to fix that. The major problem is that the submenu's appear on the left of the page. I can't get them under their respective parents at all.
Can you please help me with that?
My site:
www.mnette.nl
(if you need more info, I'm glad to provide it )

When I use the original SpryMenuBarHorizontal.css, your page behaves extremely well. I realise that you wish to customise the menu to suit your site, but these modifications are to be made under strict rules so that the cross browser functionality is not compromised.
Have a look at the following 10 commandments http://dwcourse.com/dreamweaver/ten-commandments-spry-menubars.php#one
May I suggest that you ressurrect the original style sheet and work your way from there making sure that you keep to the above commandments.

Can someone upload a photo of their itunes tv shows with multiple seasons? I am wondering if you get different artwork background for each season of that show.

HI,
I have upgraded to iTunes 11. Its good. Few bugs but good. Anyway, i have quite a few tv shows with multiple seasons. YOu know how album artwork in music has a theme for each album when you open it.... Is it the same for the differnt seasons in a show? I know a show has a theme but like there is different cover art for each season but only the first season cover art themes for the entire show. Is that how they all are or just mine. If so how do i fix it. Its not really a big deal but it is annoying me alot.
Thanks

Actually, for me, it displays the artwork for the second season of the show I have. This is because that season has the highest amount of high star-ratings for its episodes over the rest of the seasons. If you don't give ratings for your episodes, then it probably chose the first season by default. I think episode length also plays a factor, like it shows the artwork of the longest episode or something if star-ratings don't make a difference.

How to interprete db_stats report for -m option

Hi
please help me to interprete the db_stats report (for -m option).
What is the total number of pages created by DB? (It is "Current page count" or "The number of page allocations").
what is " Total number of times hash chains searched for a page" , "Total number of hash chain entries checked for page" and " Requested pages found in the cache" ( we see really huge numbers there when XML file size is increased)
Thanks,
Santhosh

Hi Santhosh,
Here are some explanations on the memory pool (cache) statistics:
- “The number of page allocations” (st_alloc)
     This accounts for the total number of page allocations made by BDB. We allocate pages in the memory pool when we create, open and rename a file in the memory pool, when we get a page from a database file, when we resize the memory pool, when we create and extend the free page list, etc. This value is grow-only.
- “Current total page count” (st_pages)
     This represents the number of pages found in the cache (both clean, with non-updated content, and dirty, with updated content). So, this equals the sum of the “Current clean page count” (st_page_clean) and the “Current dirty page count” (st_page_dirty).
- “Requested pages found in the cache” (st_cache_hit)
     This represents the total number of requests for database pages that were satisfied with pages existing in the memory pool. The percent value represents the cache hit rate, that is, how many requested pages were found in the cache, and it’s calculated using the formula “st_cache_hit / (st_cache_hit + st_cache_miss)”.
- “Requested pages not found in the cache” (st_cache_miss)
     This is the total number of requested pages that were not served directly from cache and had to be read from disk. You can determine a miss rate value, using the following formula: “st_cache_miss / (st_cache_miss + st_cache_hit)”; or, you may substract the hit rate from 100%. A higher hit rate means a hotter cache; details on how to appropriately size the cache is here:
http://www.oracle.com/technology/documentation/berkeley-db/db/ref/am_conf/cachesize.html
- “Number of hash buckets used for page location” (st_hash_buckets)
     We organize and manage the cache buffer space using hash buckets; each hash bucket has a hash chain associated where its entries (hash chain entries) refer to buffers in the memory pool space. Thus, this value represents the number of hash buckets we’re using for administering pages in the memory pool.
- “Total number of times hash chains searched for a page” (st_hash_searches)
     This value accounts for the total number of times we’ve inspected the hash chains when searching for a page in the cache (memory pool).
- “Total number of hash chain entries checked for a page” (st_hash_examined)
     This value represents the total number of entries in cache’s hash bucket chains we’ve examined when looking for a page.
When the container’s/database’s size increases, the number of pages that comprise the file will increase as well. The statistics you’ve mentioned are grow-only, so their values increase during the lifetime of the application.
Let me know if this information is helpful and if you need further clarification.

Andrei

How to disable an "open for editing" option in word/excel viewers

Hi All. It's my first post on here so please be gentle! ;-)
We have a situation on an RDS server whereby the majority of the users simply need Excel Viewer to review reports generated from an application, with only a very small number of users that actually need to amend and save these reports within Excel 2013 i.e.
a version of Excel that we need a license for.
There is an option within Excel Viewer that says "Open for editing" and unfortunately, because we also have Excel installed on the server this allows them to launch the Excel 2013 application i.e. full-blown Excel.
Is there a way that I can disable this menu item, or can anyone suggest a way that I can stop users from launching Excel 2013? I suspect that I can use AppLocker to prevent them calling on the excel.exe, but I was rather hoping that there was a more
elegant way i.e. to simply disable the menu item in Excel Viewer.
Any help / suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

It may be difficult for us to disable the "Open for Editing" option in Excel Viewer.
If you want to allow only view access to certain files, you should consider controlling access to the file location with network security. Grant the "view only" users with Read-only permission to access the document file location.

How to write Error message for select options?

Hi
i have this select option statement
SELECT-OPTIONS: s_fevor FOR afko-fevor.
how to write error message for this?
Regards
Smitha

Error messages are displayed for Select-options mostly on two conditions:
1) You needs to check wether a value is entered or not its done by:
a)
Select-options:SELECT-OPTIONS: s_fevor FOR afko-fevor Obligatory.
   In this case error message is automatically throwed by system.
b) You can do this in Selection Screen events.
Ex:
AT SELECTION-SCREEN./AT SELECTION-SCREEN ON S_FEVOR.
IF S_FEVOR-LOW IS INITIAL.
MESSAGE 'XXXXX' TYPE 'E'.
ENDIF.
2) You need to Validate the entered value:
You can do this in Selection Screen events.
Ex:
AT SELECTION-SCREEN./AT SELECTION-SCREEN ON S_FEVOR.
SELECT FEVOR
             FROM AFKO
             INTO AFKO-FEVOR
             UP TO 1 ROWS
ENDSELECT.
IF SY-SUBRC NE 0.
MESSAGE 'XXXXX' TYPE 'E'.
ENDIF.

How to set the background for all components?

hi
Does anybody know how to set the DEFAULT background color in an application.. I need it because in jdk 1.3 the default bgcolor is grey and in 1.5 it is white.. and I wish white as well.. so to make it also white in jdk 1.3 I need to use the (a bit annoying) anyContainer.setBackground( Color.white ); and these are lots in my app.. So my question is: is there such an overall class with a function (say UIManager.setComponentsBackground( Color color ) ) for such a purpose?
any tip or link would be greatly appreciated

PSE3, how to make white background for silouette

I have taken a few pics of my grandkids in silouette form. That is, profile shots taken against window with snowy background. I've done a conversion to B/W, but need to darken it further. My main question is, how do I put a selection on a pure white background? Barbara, I have your book, but I haven't been able to figure it out yet. Do you have specific pages to look at? I know how to make a decent selection, but that's about it! Thanks.

Donna,
1. Make selection of silhouette
2. Go to Edit>copy
3. Go to File>new>Blank file> Color Mode:RGB. Background contents:White. Size H&W for your paper stock.
4. Go to Edit>paste.
5. Position selection with move tool.

Spry Menue is shown different in firefox

Hello friends of Dreamweaver,
I made the usual SpryMenue in DW CS3. I used the horizontal
style. In Internetexplorer it's shown exactly as I want. But in
Firefox all elements are vertical shown not horizontal. What can I
do that Firefox shows the elements exactly in the same way like IE.
Perhaps an exeption for firefox browser in css code?
Here is the example. It's the menue bar in the top of page.

FWIW, Firefox is showing the menu the way the menu was
designed to show, the the sub-menus in the Spry Horizontal menu are
supposed to show up stacked vertically. Offhand I'm not sure why IE
is showing things the way it is, perhaps it has to do with the size
of the frame you have the menu in, or perhaps it's some other IE
issue, but I've not worked with the menus enough to know what
potential areas trouble could be lurking.
I'd suggest asking in the Spry forums and maybe someone there
can suggest a way to make Firefox show the sub-menus horizontally:
