Adding values to pop up menus

is it possible to assign a value to a pop up menu item
say you have a product = bar of soap type 1 in cell A from a pop a menu
but i want the price of "bar of soap type 1 " to appear in cell D
in other words id like to impletment a product / and price list on command

Hi Sapainters,
This might be what you want:
The Price List Table is a database of stock and prices.
The Order Table is where you have Pop up menus to select a customer's order.
The first item in each Pop up is a space (if nothing is selected, the Cell appears blank).
The price lookup is done in Column B of the Order Tabler:
=IFERROR(VLOOKUP(A2,Price List :: A:B,2,0)," ")
IFERROR() places a space in the Price Column (B) if nothing is selected from the Pop up in that Row.
Fill Pop ups and formulas down.
Choose "blank" from all Pop ups then Save As Template.
Regards,
Ian.

Using COUNTIF on time values in pop-up menu (employee schedule template)

I have modified the Numbers employee schedule template to my liking and it works very well. I would like to add a column to the beginning which shows, at a glance, how many people I have scheduled for AM shifts and PM shifts on a given day. My AM shifts start at 9:00 AM and my PM shifts end at 6:30 or 8:30 PM.
So I thought I could use COUNTIF, but after I set the array, I cannot get the condition right to return anything except "0". How do you make it detect the appropriate times? The times in each cell for In and Out times are selected using a pop-up menu, just like the template.
Here is what I tried: =COUNTIF(E3:AE3,"9:00 AM")
What should the condition be to return a proper count?

ac,
You shouldn't feel badly about having trouble with this template. It is a rather tricky one. The values in the Pop-Up menus are Date/Time values. That is to say, they have year, month, day, hour and minute components, even if only the hours and minutes are displayed. So if you only compare to the hours and minutes, you will never get a match.
I don't know if you have experienced this yet, but when you changed the Pop-Up menu content, you probably entered the current year, month and day unknowingly and will have trouble doing math against the Pop-Up content that was originally in the template.
My suggestion in your case would be to convert the time references to decimal hours before doing a comparison. For instance, if the time you wish to compare to is in cell C4, you could extract the decimal hours with =HOUR(C4)+MINUTE(C4)/60
Remember that the hours will reflect a 24-hour day, so times in the afternoon will run from 12.0 to 23.99...
Then after converting to decimal, instead of using "9:00 AM" for the COUNTIF criteria, use 9.
There are probably ways to do this using the Duration format as well, but I prefer the decimal hours.
Hope this helps.

Pop-Up Menus and active content errors - Help!

I'm attempting to add pop-up menus to my navigation bar, to
make my site more user-friendly, but to no avail:
I've tried designing pop-up menus in Fireworks, then
importing the html code in, but that gives me errors when I try to
insert the bar. Then, I tried putting my menus in different layers,
with a "show layer" behavior on the button, and a "hide layer"
behavior attached to the roll-off of the layer, but my version of
Dreamweaver won't attach a behavior to a layer.
Then, I noticed the tech-note on this site for the fix to use
pop-ups in a template, so I added pop-up menus directly to my
navigational buttons using the wizard. So here's where my problem
comes in. . .
When I preview my page, it throws up an active content error,
but will still run. I uploaded it to my remote server, but when I
went to the url, no action takes place when I put my cursor over
it. Anybody have any ideas on how to create a pop-up menu that
won't throw up an active content error? I've seen them on plenty of
websites before, but can't figure how to do them.
Any light you could shed would be greatly appreciated!

Sometimes, they make your site less user-friendly. So be
careful.
The DW/FW pop-up menus are usually something that should be
avoided. They
are very poorly thought out and implemented, and will likely
cause you
continuing problems. It's foolish to devote the time to them
that could be
more effectively be placed elsewhere, especially since there
are better
options that work right out of the box, so to speak. Please
check the free
and commercial options here -

> Any light you could shed would be greatly appreciated!
Don't use DW/FW pop-up menus.

Beyond Pop-Up Menus

I recently generated a set of pulldown menus using
dreamweaver 8 behaviors. I am currently trying to modify them.
First I moved the onmouseover from the link to the table cell.
During onmousover I want the table cell to turn the same color as
the pulldown menu (similar to the pulldown menus on the adobe site
above).
Test Page
http://www.triodisplay.com/company/about2.php
I gave the cells ids and added some javascript. The first
link (catalog) works correctly while the others don't during
onMouseout.
Here is the javascript I created to change the color of the
cell.
quote:
function changeStyleById(id){
if (document.getElementById)
var nodeObj = document.getElementById(id)
nodeObj.style.background = '#333333';
function changeStyleBackById(id){
if (menuid != 0) {
var nodeObj = document.getElementById(id)
nodeObj.style.background = '#B2B2B2';
Here is the cell that calls the code.
quote:
<td align="left" id="1"
onMouseOver="MM_showMenu(window.mm_menu_0425152551_0,-2,9,null,'image1',
'2')" onMouseOut="MM_startTimeout('1');"> <a href="
http://www.triodisplay.com/ps/ps.php"
class="topnav"> <img src="testbutton/blank.gif" alt="design"
name="image1" width="1" height="1" border="0" id="image1">Retail
Design</a></td>
Here is a link to the javascript
http://www.triodisplay.com/company/mm_menu.js
The problem I am having is onMouseOut="MM_startTimeout('1') .
MM_startTimeout calls a function and I've inserted a variable for
it to pass which is equal to the id. The problem is the mm_menu.js
is a list of functions and I can't figure out how to get my
variable to my new function.
I am looking for either an easy way to pass the variable or
if someone has a suggestions to change the color of the cell with
the pulldown menus I'd appreciate it.
Thanks in advance.

Bad choice. So was your selection of the DW pop-up menus.
Here's what the
person who adapted that code for Macromedia has to say about
the method you
are using -

Could you possibly consider one of the several other REALLY
GOOD ways to do
this? By the way, these good ways would allow you to do what
you want
easily....

Strange problem with Dreamweaver Pop-Up menus

Hello:
I have encountered a very strange problem with DreamWeaver
pop-up menus, and I was wondering if I could get some help from
this forum, as I can't seem to find an answer anywhere else.
The problem involves use of DreamWeaver's pop-up menu
behavior — all works as expected, and my local preview of the
Web page/site works fine, but when I upload the site to a server, I
see extra question mark and "box" characters added to my drop-down
menus. This problem is inconsistent between browsers: Sometimes I
see it only on IE, sometimes I also see it on Firefox.
For example, check out the following URLs:
http://libertycreativesolutions.net/clients/cci/
... this implementation of drop-down menus ("Services"
button, etc.) displays an extra "box" character for each of the
drop-down menu items, but this only occurs in IE -- Firefox is
fine.
http://libertycreativesolutions.net/clients/microtek/HTML/MicroTek_home.html
... this implementation of drop-down menus shows an extra
question mark above the triggering link onMouseOver for Firefox,
and in IE, it shows this "box" character for both the triggering
buttons and for each menu item.
For both of these sites, the pop-up menus work without a
problem *when I'm looking at a local version on my workstation*.
What in the Wide Wide World of Sports is going on here????
Any help for this problem is appreciated.
Note that I stripped out the JavaScript code for menu
information from the <head></head> area of each of
these pages and placed it in a linked JavaScript document.
HELP!

Need help with connected / linked pop-up menus

I want to select a preset.
What I did is create 2 pop-up menus. The first with the preset folders and the second with the presets from that folder.
Each pop-up group has a pop-up and a static field with the current choise.
After selecting a different value from the first pop-up menu I want to have the second popup menu filled with the new, right presets of that folder.
The first time everything works correct.
However when selecting a different folder I see that the "preset table" is filled with the correct new preset of that folder. Also the static field below the second pop-up menu shows the first value of the correct new presets. But the second pop-up menu itself still contains the presets of the first folder and not the new folder.
Yet in the Observer I see that the preset table contains the right and new presets.
My code is below.
I based it on the sample in the SDK manual.
Question: How can I update the second pop-up menu so that the pop-up menu shows the right presets.
Code below
local LrApplication = import 'LrApplication'
local LrPathUtils = import 'LrPathUtils'
local LrFileUtils = import 'LrFileUtils'
local LrBinding = import "LrBinding"
local LrDialogs = import "LrDialogs"local LrFunctionContext = import "LrFunctionContext"

myLogger:disable()
logPath = LrPathUtils.child(LrPathUtils.getStandardFilePath('documents'), logFilename .. ".log")
if LrFileUtils.exists( logPath ) then
local success, reason = LrFileUtils.delete( logPath )
if not success then
logger:error("Error deleting existing logfile!" .. reason)
end
end
myLogger:enable( "logfile" )
end

end
end

ChoosePreset()

That should work because you are likely to be creating a new table each time computeNewItems() executes..
Sometime the bind function doesn't recognise whether the contents of a table bound to a property changes. So if you use something like this:
local myItems = computeNewItems() -- compute array of tables with title and value members
properties['myPresetItems'] = myItems -- assign to bound member of property table.
it will work the first time. If you then do this:
myItems = computeNewItems() -- compute array of tables with title and value members but using existing variable
properties['myPresetItems'] = myItems -- assign to bound member of property table. Change might not be noticed by bind.
In this instance you would need to reassign the same value again. i.e.
properties['myPresetItems'] = myItems -- assign to bound member of property table again to force bind to check for table values.
Setting a property with the same value twice seems to trick bind into checking to see whether you have bound a table. I'm not sure whether this trick is only required on some versions of LR (e.g. LR 2) or only on one of the platforms, but even if it isn't required in LR 5 it will help improve your backwards compatibility and it shouldn't cause any harm to continue using it in LR 5.

Help using countifs with pop-up menus please

made a spreadsheet and am using pop-up menus as the cell format to list several shifts when making a schedule for my job, so far so good.
now i would like to total across the rows for each type of shift in 3 categories so for instance, i would like to create a formula that will tally the number of times i selected either the drop down for 9a-6p or 10a-7pm...i can get it to count one occurance by using =COUNTIF(B5:H5, "=9A-6P")...so i was trying something like =COUNTIFS(B5:H5,"=9A-6P",B5:H5,"=10A-7P") to get it to total the number of times i chose both of those text entires for the drop down, but that seems to be missing something...any help would be appreciated....

Hi Steph,
What you're missing is this (From the iWork Formulas and Functions User Guide):
COUNTIFS(test-values, condition, test-values..., condition...)
test-values: A collection containing values to be tested. test-values is a collection containing any type of value.
condition: An expression that results in a logical TRUE or FALSE. condition is an expression that can contain anything as long as the result from comparing condition to a value in test-values can be expressed as a Boolean value of TRUE or FALSE.
test-values...: Optionally include one or more additional collections containing values to be tested. Each test-values collection must be followed immediately with a condition expression. This pattern of test-values, condition can be repeated as many times as needed.
condition...: If an optional collection of test-values is included, an expression that results in a logical TRUE or FALSE. There must be one condition following each test-values collection; therefore, this function will always have an odd number of arguments.
Usage Notes
Each value in test-values is compared to the corresponding condition. If the
corresponding values in each collection meet the corresponding conditional tests,
the count is increased by 1.
The test-values, condition pairs may be thought of as a series of tests connected by AND(s)—the whole set is TRUE only if ALL parts are TRUE.
Your formula should be returning a zero count and you are testing the same set of values for two exclusive conditions—any pop-up set to "9A - 6P" cannot be also set to "10A - 7P"—at least one of the conditions will be false in every case.
For the results you want, you'll need a formula that counts each value/condition set separately, and adds the results:
=COUNTIF(B5:H5,"=9A-6P")+COUNTIF(B5:H5,"=10A-7P")
OR
=SUM(COUNTIF(B5:H5,"=9A-6P"),COUNTIF(B5:H5,"=10A-7P")

How to change the presets in pop-up menus (CS6 or CR 7, example Photo Filter) with arrow keys?

How to change the presets in pop-up menus (CS6 or CR 7, example Photo Filter) with arrow keys an see at the same time the changes on the photo?
It worked under Windows, now I use OS 10.8 and have to apply a preset with a click or Return button but after that the pop-up menu close so I have to open it once again to change a preset. Please help. Thank you!

The filter panel is a shortcut for the content panel and it only effects the content of that window. So if you have a folder it will only see this as a folder and not with its content. (a Stack behaves about the same, being different in only counting the first file in the filter panel criteria but not what is in the stack itself)
You have a view work arounds, first is use menu view / show items from subfolders (this can take some time especially if you have not used caching before on this content) and this builds visible thumbs for all content and that can be used for filtering.
Or use the find command (Edit / find) and inhere specify the source and fill in the criteria include subfolders and this will give you the correct result.
When you create a smart collection the find command also pops up given you the same opportunity to get the results in a collection, but since a collection is only a bunch of aliases referring to the originals you might be a bit careful with editing and deleting.

How do I have Blu-Ray pop up menus linked together if I'm using multiple timelines?

I have a 6 timeline project that I put in pop up menus for. Each timeline asks for it's own pop up menu to use. The pop up menus seemed to need to be created with the multiple chapter option to work for me, I couldn't create stand alones and link them together because the timeline asks for ONE pop up menu associated with it. I then created 6 separate pop up menus (each one ended up with about 3 pages) one for each timeline. I tried to link POP UP MENU1 to POP UP MENU2 with a NEXT button at the end of the last page of POP UP MENU1. When I drag the whip to link it to the proper pop up menu when I actually look at the button the link is the current pop up menu not the one I want it linked to, so I am unable to do this. The pop up menus function properly on my Blu-Ray player- If I am viewing material from timeline 1, I can pull up POP UP MENU1 and arrow back and forth to the three pages on this, POP UP MENU2 functions the same way for timeline 2. etc.

First of all, the pop up menus can not be linked to each other.
If you want, you can have more pages on a single pop up menu and link all your timelines or chapters to the buttons of the pages and then link that pop up menu with more number of pages to all of the timelines. In this way, you can have the option to navigate to any chapter of any timeline while any timeline is playling.

How to edit DW 8 pop-up menus in DW CS5?

Hello,
Yes, I understand about Spry menu bar in CS5 and will use it in the future for creating new pop-up menus.
However, I have already created many pop-up menus using DW 8 for multiple web sites and standalone web pages - about 100 web pages total - for my employer.
Is it possible to edit these DW 8 pop-up menus from within DW CS5?
I did try the only instructions I found, which I thought were to choose ~ Deprecated from the Behaviors menu, and then choose the Pop-up menu. However, even when I have open a web page in CS5 containing an existing pop-up menu I created in DW 8, I do not see anything about Deprecated on the Behaviors menu.
I tried positioning my cursor on the URL and then also on a graphic item associated with the pop-up menu behavior I applied in DW 8 - still did not see "Deprecated" in the Behaviors menu or how to select it. (Please note that my pop-up menus do not involve Fireworks MX in any way; they were created directly in DW 8 by applying the pop-up menu JavaScript behavior.)
What am I missing? How do I select "Deprecated" in the Behaviors menu?
Is there some other way - or any way at all - I can edit my pop-up menus previously created in 100+ web pages ? I really do not have time to re-do all of these web pages using Spry.
Please advise. Thanks!

Hello, Thanks for the response. All of my web sites and standalone web pages are internal, behind the corporate firewall so I cannot provide you with links.
Recap: The pop-up menus I created in DW 8 work beautifully, seamlessly and were very easy to maintain in the earlier version of Dreamweaver. I have been using DW pop-up menus since 2004.
Goal: To update and edit these pop-up menus created in DW 8 - in DW CS5. Why? Because we have multiple websites and standalone web pages, 100+ web pages total, some with multiple pop-up menus on each page and it is not possible due to time limitations to re-code and re-develop all of these existing pages using the new Spry menu. We will use the Spry menu when we create new menus for new web pages in the future.
I have previously read here: http://help.adobe.com/en_US/Dreamweaver/10.0_Using/WSc78c5058ca073340dcda9110b1f693f21-7ae 9a.html that you choose ~ Deprecate from the Behaviors menu to update existing DW 8 pop-up menus in DW CS 5, but I do not have this option available to me - I do not see a "Deprecate" selection available when I select an existing DW 8 pop-up menu to edit in CS5. Perhaps I am doing something wrong? When I place my cursor on the pop-up menu items, and go to the Behaviors panel, I do not have a Deprecate option, and the pop-up menu actions are not available to select.
I am concerned that the only way it appears that I can edit the pop-up menus is to edit the HTML which is possible but messy, and defeats the reason for having DW in the first place. Otherwise, I guess we go back to using DW8 and don't use DW CS5 at all for our existing web pages. If that happens, management will certainly question "why did we pay $400 for a commercial license for a software product which does not allow us to edit our existing web pages?".
Here are two coding samples from my web pages with the links changed so that confidential information is non-identifiable:
Example 1
1. Link coding associated with the pop-up menu behavior (identifiable link information changed for this example):
<a href="examples1/index.html" name="link1" id="site-home" style="text-decoration:none" onmouseover="MM_showMenu(window.mm_menu_0112173011_0,152,-1,null,'link1')" onmouseout="MM_startTimeout();">Example link 1<img src="images/triangle-sm.gif" alt="pointer" width="5" height="6" style="margin-left:6px"/></a>
2. Associated coding in the <head> tag for this particular example:
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">

</script>
<script language="JavaScript" src="mm_menu.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
3. Of course, we load the menus in the first line after the open <body> tag:
<script language="JavaScript1.2">mmLoadMenus();</script>
The "mm_menu.js" file itself is located in the self-same directory/folder as the web page, so it loads properly and the pop-up menus function as expected.
Example 2
1. Link coding associated with the pop-up menu behavior (identifiable link information changed for this example):
<a href="javascript:void(0)" name="link5" id="link1" onclick="MM_showMenu(window.mm_menu_0203084229_0,-115,-40,null,'link5')" onmouseout="MM_startTimeout();">Reports</a>
2. Associated coding in the <head> tag for this particular example:
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javaScript">

</script>
<script language="JavaScript" src="mm_menu.js"></script>
3. Of course, we load the menus in the first line after the open <body> tag:
<script language="JavaScript1.2">mmLoadMenus();</script>
The "mm_menu.js" file itself is located in the self-same directory/folder as the web page, so it loads properly and the pop-up menus function as expected.
-------End Code and examples-------
Please advise. Thanks.

Working with pop up menus in Dreamweaver CS4

this is my first time working with pop up menus in CS4 (have built many in previous versions), Adobe says you cannot create the pop up menus due to the new Spry feature - but that you can alter existing menus using the Behaviours panel
I have just launched a new website using pop up menus - and there is a glitch when viewing the rollover/pop up menus: I see a question mark to the left of each image in the menu (the images themselves are working beautifully), does anyone know why?
view the website here:
http://www.kiwihouse.org.nz
I want to keep the pop up menu so am looking for a solution to eliminate the floating question mark
does it have anything to do with the multiple javascripts on each page?.. I have one for the menus, and one for the multiple fadeshow
any advice or suggestions would be greatly appreciated
dQ

Not sure if this is the problem, don't have time to go through all your code - but putting the page through the validator bought up a lot of errors...
http://validator.w3.org/check?verbose=1&uri=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.kiwihouse.org.nz%2F
Look at the 3rd error message - it's to do with the way the script link has been written.
Lots of other errors that need fixing as well.
On another note, these pop up menus are not the best way to create menus these days, that's why the pop up menu feature was removed from the latest DW version.

How to remove value from pop list in iProcurement Page

I need to remove a value from POP list. How can I do this? Can I do this using Perosnalization?
While creating requisition in the approvers page there are two buttons one is Approvers and another is Add_Attachments.
When I click Add_Attachments button it will open another page there I need enter description and select category from the pop list and define attachment.
In the category list I need to remove one value. How do i do this.Personalization links not available in this page.
Please help guys...
Thanks Advance
Kumar

Kumar,
First you need to find out the data source for the category pop list. Based on that we can suggest how to achieve that requirement as there are many different ways of specifying the data source for a pop list.

Templates + Pop Up Menus

I know, I know Murray, you said these don't work in the past,
however, I made a template with a pop up / drop down (however you
like to call it) menu and so far it seems to work just fine. Am I
delusional ? Headed for a huge fall later on when I discover X
dosn't work with this feature ? Or does it really work now ?
I do know that pop up menus don't work with library items
still but the templates seem to be ok. Any experience for this
anyone ?
Cheers
Simon

> Am I delusional ?
Yes.
> Headed for a huge fall later on when I discover X dosn't
work with this
> feature ?
Yes. Rename or move a linked page. Add a new menu button to
the page.
> I do know that pop up menus don't work with library
items
Actually, that's wrong too. They work just fine with Library
items -

"Date Added" values changed to be identical in some folders

Hi,
I normally sort my work files (mostly .ppts) by "date added" to help me keep track, this usually works fine. I have the date added column showing in Finder and set the Folder Options to sort by date added.
I noticed today that in some folders (but not all) the date added value has been re-set by the system to be a random date (eg 30 Jan 2015 15:28 for one folder), and the date and time added is the exact same for all the files. Obviously this means I can't sort them anymore. I was wondering why this has happened and if it can be fixed as it's a really annoying and potentially serious issue.
Running Yosemite 10.10.2 on a mid-2012 MBP.
Thanks

Hi Subha,
You can assing default values to the Variables...Fiscal Year2008; Version100...etc. so that the user need not input all the variables.
I am not sure whether you can assign a function--"on selection" of variables. For better control It would be prudent to advise users to execute a function (if need be embed a SAVE function with in the sequence) on press of a button.

Preview Pop-Up Menus with third-party Player for mac

Hi, everyone,
Does anyone have an idea, how i could preview my pop-up menus without burning and waisting a BD every time??
I just downloaded two different free BluRay players for mac, they both dont seem to have the option to open a Pop-up menu. (I really wonder, why that is so, i cannot imagine that this is so hard to develop…)
anyway, how do you guys do that?? is there any software out there that can do this?? I am at a point where i feel i would even pay for a software or get a windows software and run it via crossover, if nessesary...
Please help, i really want to preview my BluRay before i burn it on disc.
Thank you very much,
Niki

Two methods:
I use Total Media Theater (5 or 6). It is not free, and I do not know if it is available for Mac. Popup menus and slideshow operation is the most challenging for emulators (which is what computer DVD/BD players are).
Burn to a DVD+RW. This is essential as a test step to burn to some disk.
