Drop down menu for a list

Hi, I need to create a type of drop down menu for a
navigation list. Only one button needs a drop down option. I was
wondering if anyone had any suggestion on the best way to go about
it? Is there a way to make the list that drops down to the right
instead of dropping straight down in order to keep the opening
window from getting in the way of the button beneath it. I would
like to do it without changing the order of the navigation list and
having to make it the last button.
Thanks

How to configure drop down menu in custom list

Hi,
I want to create custom list with 3 options. Active, Proposal and Completed. How can I create drop down menu like this (look at picture).

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you wanted to configure drop down menu in custom list.
I suggest to modify the view to group by Preposition Status.
You can follow the steps as below:
Create list, add choice column named Preposition Status.
Add items.
Modify the view as below:
Then the result is as below:
Thank you for your understanding.

Drop down menu for services button

This is the code i have for the buttons on the website.
<div id="cssButton" align="center">
    <a href="index3.html" class="button custom">HOME</a>
    <a href="news.html" class="button custom">NEWS</a>
    <a href="services.html" class="button custom">SERVICES</a>
    <a href="portfolio.html" class="button custom">PORTFOLIO</a>
    <a href="about.html" class="button custom">ABOUT US</a>
    <a href="contact.html" class="button custom">CONTACT US</a>
</div>
I'm trying to create a drop down menu for the services button, but not sure how to go about it.
Any help would be much appreciated.

Structurally, you really should use unordered lists for menus. And use sub-lists for your drop-menus.
<nav>
<ul id="menu">
<li>Menu 1</li>
<li>Menu 2</li>
<li>Menu 3</li>
<li>Menu 4<ul>
     <li>Sub-Menu 4.1</li>
     <li>Sub-Menu 4.2</li>
     <li>Sub-Menu 4.3</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Menu 5</li>
</ul>
</nav>
With some creative CSS, you can have button styled lists that drop. See links below for details:

How can i create a drop down menu for set qty in my store?

I'm wondering how i can create a drop down menu for the qty module that sits on the individual product page. My client sells in quantities of 6 packs. I currently have the minimum order at 6 but i would like to give consumers the option for 6,12,18...and so forth. I was told that it could be accomplished? Hopefully someone can help me.

Hi Chris -
Thank you for your reply! I had seen your article before, and just now again attempted to follow it, but I get stuck. There are two things that I'm confused by.
First off, toward the top, referring to the initial button, you say to add this interaction:
ON CLICK; Play Transition to comboBox: selected
ON ROLL OUT; Play Transition to comboBox normal if comboBox is in over state
ON ROLL OVER; Play Transition to comboBox over if comboBox is in normal
However, I do not see these transition options. When I select the button, the only interactions I have are to Play transistion to state, Play action sequence, Go to URL, and two for videos. So that's the first roadblock for me.
But, trying to get passed that, I went down to the portion of the article that refers to adding interaction to the dataset items. Again, I don't get it, as I see no way to add interaction to a dataset item. When I open my design-time data menu, I do see the items, and am able to rename each item, add additional rows, and change the shape of the datalist layout. However, I see no way to add an interaction to a dataset item. I must be missing a step ... Can you help with this?
Again, thank you!

Need help fixing a CSS Drop-Down menu for IE6

Hello.
I have created an entirely CSS drop down menu for my website
which works perfect in Firefox, Safari, Opera and IE7 however when
I tested in IE6 it displayed like this -->
image
here or go to http://www.runecentral.net/index.php (Must have
/index.php as i have redirected / to the community forum.)
Here is my code

Thank you for your reply.
To answer your first question, I tried it with just one
before and it caused Internet Explorer to display the background
incorrectly so I just kept them both.
I have replaced background-image with background:
url(/img/defmenu.png) repeat-x;
But, I cannot access my XP machine until tomorrow so I cannot
view the site in IE6, if you could test it and tell me if it is the
same as the image linked to in my first post that would be great.
Kind Regards,
Perry

Drop Down menu for navigation bar

I created a site a couple years ago (with GoLive) with a
navigation bar with rollover states. I would like to create
something very similar to it now in Dreamweaver CS3 but with the
addition of a drop down menu for just a couple of the navigation
icons. I have been told by Adobe tech support on the phone that I
need some custom coding to do this.
To see what the navigation bar looks like now go to
www.aimeeastvillage.com
I DON"T need the drop down choices to be in a whimsical font.
I just don't want to have to direrct the reader to go to an
additional page. PLEASE tell me this is possible for a relative
beginner! Thanks.

Drop down menu for all ipad and samsung tablets and desktop

Does anyone know any drop down menu that works in all ipad and other mobile devices (like samsung tab 2) and desktop and how to use it in Oracle APEX? I played with the "pull down menu" in theme 24 - to replace page tabs - and it didn't work very well with sublists. Since the "hover" event didn't work in mobile devices, it already navigated to the target before the sublists showed.
Thanks.

I am still new in this area but this is what I would suggest:
Depending on with Apex Version you are working with - and as I understand, a lot gets far easier with 4.2, when it comes to development for mobile devices - I would work with jQuery Mobile.
A very nice introduction (at least for me) was this youtube Video with Peter Raganitsch.
JQuery Mobile gives you the tools to create a very nice touch-friendly popup list.

How do I aphabetize the drop down menu for favorites?

I have been able to sort my bookmarks menu from A>Z while in the "organize bookmarks" view, BUT that doesn't change the bookmarks drop-down menu, which is what I want to do so I can find bookmarks quickly. How to I re-sort the bookmarks drop-down menu list?

The Views menu in the Bookmarks Manager (Bookmarks > Show All Bookmarks) is for viewing the bookmarks in a different sorting order (hence the name Views) and doesn't sort bookmarks permanently.<br />
Clicking the column header does the same.<br />
If you want to sort bookmarks then you need to right-click a folder and use "Sort By Name" to sort that folder.<br />
You can't sort individual bookmarks, only folders can be sorted this way.

How can i get a drop down menu or check list control

i want to give the user a choice between 7 options on the front panel. i want either a check list or drop down menu.thanks

You can use any of the ring controls to generate a drop down list. The ring controls are found on the Controls >> Ring & Enum palette. You program the drop down items the same way with any of these controls. Type the first drop down item on the control. Right click on the control and select "add item after". The controls text field will blank out and you can enter your second item. Repeat for every item on the list you need to generate. After you are done entering items, click on the control with the application tool and you will see a drop down menu of all the items you entered.

I use QVC online a lot. When hovering over a catagory headings at the top of the page, a drop down menu shows a list of subcategories. Is this feature available in Firefox 4 & 5? If so, how do I turn it on?

I use QVC online a lot. When hovering over a category heading in IE9 a drop down menu appears with detailed subheadings for that category. Is this feature available in Firefox versions 4 and 5? Is this something that can be turned on in Firefox 4 & 5? If so, how do I turn this feature on?

Hey Dave,
How did you get on with this?
Have you tried CSS position:fixed? I have been playign around with it on my own project (and in fact are just about to post a related question) and can confirm that it works with a plain old DIV.
SVG I can't be sure though..
Certainly give it a try.
Cheers

How to find the size and resolution option in the aspect ratio drop down menu for the crop tool

while looking through certain tutorials on the new crop system i came across many that referenced the above mentioned size and resolution option in the access ratio drop down menu. They all mention a dialog box which then appears which looks really useful, however my version doesnt have this option. any help would be appreciated.

John, are there already differences? I thought 13.1 was mainly about retina display support, but I guess there would also be other fixes released while they were at it.
Yes, definitely already differences. I sympathize with Photoshop instructors (online and offline).
The headline change was Retina support but that was also made available to non-Cloud versions.
Other Cloud-only changes in 13.1 are listed here

Hi Katie,
Welcome to Apple Discussions and the Numbers '09 forum.
Numbers vocabulary for this feature is a "Pop-up Menu". It's available as a Cell Format, and is set and edited in the Cell Format Inspector.
See "Using a Checkbox, Slider, Stepper, or Pop-Up Menu in Table Cells" starting on page 96 of the Numbers '09 User Guide.
This guide, and the equally useful iWork Formulas and Functions User Guide are available for download through the Help menu in Numbers.

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
opener.myform.submit();
</SCRIPT>
</form>
</body>
</html>thats my code for part of database, in the parts that go "if CID = 0", thats the new record field, in there right now i just have users put in info into blank input fields, however, i would like to know if i can make certain fields, like Mraketer, and Counterparty fields to have drop down menus, Anyone know??

So basically the main focus of what I was askin is in this block of code below:
if (CID == 0) {
          // Do the insert via a PreparedStatement
          java.sql.PreparedStatement ps = null;
          ps = db.prepareStatement("insert into hit_or_miss values(?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?)");
          ps.setInt(1, nID);
          ps.setString(2, DE);
          ps.setString(3, SI);
          ps.setString(4, TT);
          ps.setBigDecimal(5, NTL);
          ps.setString(6, ST);
          ps.setString(7, CP);
          ps.setString(8, ED);
          ps.setString(9, SD);
          ps.setString(10, MD);
          ps.setString(11, CT);
          ps.setString(12, MRKTR);
          ps.setBigDecimal(13, SC);
          ps.setBigDecimal(14, MP);
          ps.setString(15, CC);
          ps.executeUpdate();
          out.print("<font color=darkblue>The new record has been inserted into the database successfully</font>");
     } else {
          // Do the update via a PreparedStatement
          // First we insert a row into the archive table
             java.sql.PreparedStatement ps = null;
                ps = db.prepareStatement("update hit_or_miss set date_entered = getdate(), summit_ID = ?, transaction_type = ?, notional = ?, structure = ?, counterparty = ?, expiry_date = ?, start_date = ?, maturity_date = ?, currency_type = ?, marketer = ?, sales_credit = ?, markup = ?, comments_color = ? where hom_ID ="+CID+" ");
          ps.setString(1, DE);
          ps.setString(2, SI);
          ps.setString(3, TT);
          ps.setBigDecimal(4, NTL);
          ps.setString(5, ST);
          ps.setString(6, CP);
          ps.setString(7, ED);
          ps.setString(8, SD);
          ps.setString(9, MD);
          ps.setString(10, CT);
          ps.setString(11, MRKTR);
          ps.setBigDecimal(12, SC);
          ps.setBigDecimal(13, MP);
          ps.setString(14, CC);
          ps.executeUpdate();
          out.print("<font color=darkblue>This record has been updated successfully</font>");
     }     when CID = 0, what it does is it pops up a new window called "New Record" and in this new window, there are boxes where inputs can be made, so that when u hit submit, it submits into the database.
What I want to do is, for example, there is a input field called "Marketer" where one can type in his own name as the Marketer, I want make this into a drop down box, where you can pick the marketer, and not have to type it in.
You know how websies have New User, where you create a new user that is added to their database, and usually the COUNTRY field is a drop down menu where you pick the country from. I would like to do that to my database, and this is the area, or the code, that deal w/ new record "IF CID =0" and edit record "ELSE"
Is this possible?
Thanks in Advance

No languages visible in drop down menu for spelling under preferences

My IT department just gave me a new computer and we downloaded a copy of Dreamweaver 4 (we use this version for various reasons although it is old). When I went tot he preferences, under 'General' and 'Spelling Dictionary' the drop down menu is blank and I cannot select anything. The spell checker works but I no longer get the red squiggly line under spelling errors when working on a web page (like you get in a Word document). I don't know how to get this feature back.

Spell check in DW, at least the built in spell checker, is a manual process with a dialogue pop up that allows you to Ignore, Change, Ignore All or Change All on a word by word basis. There's never been a live red squiggly line like Word, and just about every other program under the sun, as far back as at least DWCS3 (the oldest version I've used).
You should still have a little over a dozen options in the language drop-down though.
I'd try clearing the cache/personal config file for the program: Deleting a corrupted cache file
Then restore preferences if that doesn't work: Restore preferences | Dreamweaver CS4, CS5, CS5.5, CS6

I've lost my drop down menu for my back and forward buttons. I use them constantly. How do I add this or is that option gone for good?

There used to be a drop down menu along side the forward and back buttons so you could skip several pages in between. I couldn't find that as an option to customize that feature back is that option no longer available?

Hi Emclatchy,
In Firefox 4 you should be able to get the history drop-down menu by left-clicking on the back button or the forward button and holding the mouse button down for a few seconds.
Or, you can try installing this add-on:
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/firefox/addon/backforedrop/
I haven't tried it myself but it is supposed to add the history drop-down indicator back to Firefox 4, same as it was in previous versions.
Hope that helps,
