Creating Dropdown Menu

Is it possible to create a dropdown menu in deramweaver
either using the default software or using an added tool? My
website is designed using dreamweaver. Howeve I wanted to use a
drop down menu on the top of the page, which I could not create
using dreamweaver. I ultimately ended up creating the menu by
manually coding it. The menu can be seen at my
Web Design Company
Homepage. Is there anyway this could have been achieved in
Dreamweaver without having to code it manually.

Ironic that this would be posted just a few hours after Al's
post announcing
PMM2, no? 8)

Help Needed in creating dropdown menu in excel using JXL

Hi,
I am trying to create dropdown menu in using JXL.
The Code:
private void createRequiredRows(WritableSheet writableSheet, List unallowCodeList,int rowCount
               , int startRowNo,int colCount) throws WriteException {
Label unallowCode = null;
          WritableFont noBoldFont = new WritableFont(WritableFont.ARIAL, 8,WritableFont.NO_BOLD);
          WritableCellFormat dropDownCellFormat = new WritableCellFormat(noBoldFont,new NumberFormat("000"));
          dropDownCellFormat.setAlignment(Alignment.RIGHT);
          WritableCellFeatures writableCellFeature = new WritableCellFeatures();
          writableCellFeature.setDataValidationList(unallowCodeList);
          for (int rowNo = startRowNo; rowNo < startRowNo + rowCount; rowNo++) {
               unallowCode = new Label(colCount, rowNo, "Select",dropDownCellFormat);
               unallowCode.setCellFeatures(writableCellFeature);
               writableSheet.addCell(unallowCode);
it creates a drop down in the Excel.
But writableCellFeature.setDataValidationList(unallowCodeList); has a limitation of characters .So the dropdown menu gets truncated when it exceeds the limitation.
Can anyone help me in creating dropdown menu in excel without any limitation using JXL..
Thanks,
Bisin

Hi,
I dont know the solution for this, but heres a work arround
//create new label some where else in the excel sheet as shown below
Label lblcmbdata;
for(int i=0; i<1000; i++)
             lblcmbdata = new Label(75, i, (i+1)+" satish", format);
             sheet1.addCell(lblcmbdata);
}//set the validation range as shown below
writableCellFeature.setDataValidationRange(75,0,75,1000);
Label cmb = null;
cmb = new Label(0, 1, "Select",format);
cmb.setCellFeatures(writableCellFeature);
sheet.addCell(cmb);this will create a combo list with 1000 values
also you can keep the data to be populated in the different sheet in same workbook by creating a named range as below
workbook.addNameArea("cmbdata", sheet1, 0, 0, 0, 1000);
// then fill the data in sheet1
Label lblcmbdata;
for(int i=0; i<1000; i++)
                lblcmbdata = new Label(0, i, (i+1)+" satish", format);
                sheet1.addCell(lblcmbdata);
//set the validation named range as below
writableCellFeature.setDataValidationRange("cmbdata");
Label cmb = null;
cmb = new Label(0, 1, "Select",format);
cmb.setCellFeatures(writableCellFeature);
sheet.addCell(cmb);Thanks and Regards

Hello Forum Members
I am working on dreamweaver , making my website by using dreamweaver 9 .
My problem is, i want to create a dropdown menu but when i move my cursor on any item then the drop down links appears on the same item itself and that item diappears.

now when i move my cursor on any of these menu headings (like item 2, item 3, item 4) which has drop down links the main menu item disappears and the drop down links (item 2.1, item2.2 like wise) reflects on the place of that (item2) menu item.
Please help me with this and not with the scirpt that would be the last option because i do not have any knowledge of html. Please tell me the feature in dreamweaver 9 from where i can correct it.
Thanks In Advance

Creating dropdown menu in Dreamweaver CS5 that is compatible with iPad

The spry menu bar on my website does not work properly on iPads or other touchscreen devices. Some of the solutions I've been looking at tell me to download the Widget Browser and use Spry MenuBar 2.0. However, I cannot find the Widget Browser to download it and move forward.
Is the Widget Browser no longer available? If not, please could someone suggest a solution to create both vertical and horizontal menus that work on touchscreen devices. Simple solutions, please, because I'm not as technical as I'd like to be.
Thank you!

Hi!
I would like to create a DVD menu that offers two languages. So the first page gives two options: Language 1 and Language 2. Then depending on which language you choose, you go to a menu that proposes different videos and a photo slideshow.
Regardless on which language button you click on initially, you get the same content but in different languages.
I've been looking at Premiere's templates, which I can certainly customize, but I really don't see how to create the double menu. Does anybody have an idea?
Put the video with the first language on the timeline followed by the video with the second language. Use chapter markers so you can have each video as a chapter in the menu.
I use Premiere Pro, so I can't give more specific directions. Perhaps somebody like ATR will chime in.
Also, I have another question: can I put videos from different projects in the same DVD with Premiere or must all of the videos that go into the DVD be in the same project?
Thank you very much!!!

They must be in the same project.

Creating in DW a dropdown menu/navi-bar from png's created in Illustrator

Hey All!
I'm new to Dreamweaver (currently CS5.5) and trying to create webpages for a university-researched based project site.
I'm totally lost as to how to create dropdown menus from buttons and dropdown menus I've created in Illustrator (CS4). I have made the buttons not particularly custom apart from the appearance. There seems to be no way to import from Illustrator unless using slices which only create html linkpages and/or CSS layers (I have no clue on that).
I want to do a number of things:
1. Have a navigation bar
2. When the cursor hovers over the tab it inverts and
(for example) the 'Introduction' tab drop-slides down to show the options.
3. When the cursor hovers over an option the colour changes from light grey to black (?...)
It's a tall order I know, but I've been searching on the web for the last 4 hours and have had no luck in finding what I'm looking for. It is possible isn't it? Surely at this point its possible to do anything with the adobe software?!
Many thanks and best wishes,
James MLM
p.s. If you need to see an attachment of the exampled .pngs let me know. Cheers

Thank you Murray *ACP* and Nancy O. for your help.
I can neither afford to buy such software and nor want to sadly, if I could I would feel I'd learned nothing and have another program do all of the "thrashing" out for me . I'd like to know how it all works, since I'm very new to the whole website design industry (dreamweaver, joomla etc) and I'm keen to learn as much as possible.
Don't take this the wrong way, but the Spry menu bars are fine for an everyday kind of put-together website, however this website is for an academic institution's project and I'm trying my darndest to make sure it doesn't resemble or fall into the category of excessive substance over style. It's a website meant for anyone to use, from the academics who understand the project to the anybody-joe-josie who can use it to learn from the research and products of the project. User-friendly as possible for an academic project. Harder than you think, unless you have seen any academic websites that have all the understandings of layout, clear project description and understanding and product.
Surely there is a way of creating these customisable dropmenus and the masters of said software such as yourselves might find it too time-consuming to give me an idea of where to start, it's cool, I get it.
On paper it's simple; create dropdown menus (slide smoothly) for external links etc, using the .pngs I've designed in Illustrator to give as much aesthetic interaction as possible, that's what I've been assigned to do to replace the quickly-slapped together website there was before. I can't show you the pages I've created from Illustrator using Slices (not a very effective option) since it's under the institution "law" of data protection until ready. I can only provide snippets and the previous website which is being completely updated to meet a brief of "smart, slick, simple".
My definition of that is to have the style of smart, slick and simple whilst having a little more depth and accessibility. All things wonderful get better and evermore intriguing the closer you look.
Thank you again for your help, I'm still learning but I put the hours into something that needs full attention. Plus to whinge (sorry) I'm not being paid, and it's a 3 month schedule. "Tene lupum auribus".
Many thanks and best wishes,
James MLM

Creating a dropdown menu from an image hotspot

How do you create a dropdown menu from an image hotspot? For
example, this website is a single jpg image with links generated
from hotspot coordinates on the image. Can I have someone click on
a hotspot and a dropdown menu appears?
Thanks in advance for the help!

Unfortunately, everyone knows, but nobody wanted to tell you.
Given this fact -
> this website is a single jpg image with links generated
from hotspot
> coordinates on the image.
one can assume that you are not very experienced with DW or
even with HTML.
In that case, the practical answer to your question would be
"no".
To create a 'drop-down' menu, you need to have a full web
page (not just an
image with image maps), containing a menu HTML structural
element. While
you *could* just place hidden elements on the page that would
only be
revealed (i.e., drop-down) when your image maps are rolled
over, the
practical reality is that this would be an extremely awkward
construct, and
not only most likely beyond the ken of someone who is
inexperienced, but
also just plain 'not right'.
Sorry to give you the bad news.

Using fluid grid layout in Dreamweaver CC - how do I create a dropdown menu within my main navigation?

I am new to using the responsive fluid grid layouts in Dreamweaver CC - and I am unable to find any information on creating a dropdown menu within my main navigation.
Any ideas?

You'll need to find a menu system that is responsive and mobile friendly for touch screen devices.
If you have a budget to work with, Project Seven's Pop-Menu Magic3 is a commercial extension for DW that works great out of the box.
http://projectseven.com/products/menusystems/pmm3/index.htm
If you don't have a budget, you'll need to create a desktop menu and add a jQuery plugin for mobile devices.

Is there a way to create a dropdown menu template for metadata entry in Bridge?

For certain categories such as keywords, I would like to create a set of standard terms to use for my department. Is there a way to create a template for a dropdown menu within the metadata window?
Currently running CS5.1

This was discontinuted in CS5 howerver you could migrate that plugin to CS5. I don`t know if you can do this with CS6.
To my knowledge they only provided a revised Contact sheet II script for CS6. In my opinion a very bad idea because they should have put all efforts and resources to enhance the Output Module PDF contact sheet that has far more options.
Still not using web galleries but the goal for web gallery was also to use this in the Adobe Output Module, maybe that provides you the options you want?

Why won't cells autopopulate when using numbers on the ipad? Anyone have a fix? Have also created a dropdown menu, but that does not translate from excel to numbers either.

How to make dropdown menu selection create more text fields?

I did some searching and am unable to find an answer for this. It could be because I don't know the name of what I'm trying to do (I'm a total LiveCycle Designer noob). I tried to find guides but they seem to be for newer versions of Designer (I'm using 8.2) so I'll ask here:
I'd like specific text fields to appear after a pulldown menu option is selected (empty fields w/ the captions already filled in). How can I go about doing this?
Thanks in advance!

The script I see when I click on the dropdown menu in question:
form1.#subform[0].DropDownList4::initialize - (FormCalc, client)
form1.#subform[0].DropDownList4::enter - (FormCalc, client)
form1.#subform[0].DropDownList4::exit - (FormCalc, client)
form1.#subform[0].DropDownList4::calculate - (FormCalc, client)
form1.#subform[0].DropDownList4::validate - (FormCalc, client)
form1.#subform[0].DropDownList4::preOpen - (FormCalc, client)

Creating a vertical dropdown menu that displays inline

I would like to change how my dropdown menu displays. First I'd like for it to dropdown directly underneath its menu item and in the process move the other links down. And remain visible until it is clicked again, thereby shifting other links back up.
Here is what I am trying to accomplish:
Main menu:
main link 1
main link 2
main link 3
main link 4
Then when user clicks on a link:
main link 1
   sub item
   sub item
   sub item
main link 2
main link 3
main link 4
And for it to remain displayed like the above until clicked again.
So in essence it could even look like this as a user is navigating:
main link 1
   sub item
   sub item
   sub item
main link 2
   sub item
   sub item
   sub item
main link 3
   sub item
   sub item
   sub item
main link 4
   sub item
   sub item
   sub item
And then each submenu disappear as its main link is clicked again.
Hope this makes sense and hope someone can help.
Thanks!
P.S. Im using Dreamweaver CS6

Robohelp 10: how to create a dropdown menu as an index?

I currently have several standard links to other robohelp pages in my main index page. I would like to change this to a dropdown menu, but when I add a dropdown menu (Insert -> HTML -> Form -> Drop-down Menu) It doesn't have any option to link to other pages.
Is there an easy way to do this?

Jeff, long ago I stopped adding a sig line.
cnwinger, the wish form is below:
http://www.adobe.com/go/wish
A "standard drop-down menu" is a form element. RoboHelp does offer form elements but does nothing in the way of assisting with the scripting needed to make the form elements work.
Cheers... Rick

When I try to bookmark a page the dropdown menu only shows 4 of my many bookmark folders.

I have a heck of a lot of bookmark folders. These show up in the dropdown menu when I click on Bookmarks in the toolbar. However just today when I try to bookmark a web page, I only am given offered four folders in which to file the bookmark. Clicking on "choose" doesn't show any folders at all that I've created. Same thing when I open MF in safe mode with addons not enabled.
If I click on "Bookmarks menu" in the bookmark window then click on the arrow to chose a file, I see an odd assortment of random bookmarks and files.
To complicate matters, perhaps: This morning Firefox went crazy. Details don't matter now. I followed instructions in MF support and saved critical files. Then uninstalled and reinstalled a new copy of MF. Created a new profile and moved critical files into it.
Am I missing a file? Is something corrupted? (How would I find it?) Why would MF not see my folders when asked to file a bookmark?
Thanks

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
See:
* [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]
This can also be a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.
