Drop down menu to populate fields used for testing

Hello,
I have asked a few questions on here and everyone is very helpful thank you
My current question is related to drop down menus.
What I want to do is have the end user be able to select the testing item from a drop down menu and all of the values associated with testing that item.
The associated values will need to be used in the testing function so the test can run properly.
Things such as offsets, loads, and other values are what I am talking about.
To clarify...
have a drop down menu where you can select which item you are testing, and once selected have the associated parameters populate and be used during the test.
After searcing the forums for a few hours I was un able to find any other question or example similar enough to what I am trying to accomplish
Thank you!

How can i add a drop down list to a fields using BHTML( displaying on its)

Please help me to add a drop down list to a field while displaying on ITS using BHTML or javscript. List should show all the values from value table or search help.

Hi Sandeep,
in ABAP, read the table (keys and values) and write it to the ITS context, e.g. with field names KEY and VALUE.
On the ITS template, write code like this:
`if (KEY.dim > 1);
   repeat with i from 1 to KEY.dim;
    keys1[ i ] = KEY[ i ];
    contents1[ i ] = VALUE[ i ];
    if (KEY[ i ] == SELECTED_KEY);
     selIndex = i;
    end;
   end,
   SAP_TemplatePulldownField("field1", fieldLabel=#label, name="KEY", key="keys1", content="contents1", selIndex=selIndex);
end`
(I had to add blanks between the brackets to get the code displayed correctly here.)
HTH & best regards,
Carlo

How do you use a drop down menu to populate other fields?

I am creating a PDF that upon choosing from a list of People their address, phone, etc will automatically come in the remaining fields, or if a new person is choosen than you can add names address phone and it will save for future referrence ?
Any help would be appreciated,
THank you

Thanks for your comment.
Try doing this:
Connect the form to a database and bind the fields in the form to the associated nodes in the data source so the data values automatically appear in the bound fields when a name is selected in the list.
Add scripting to the list of names so the associated fields for address and phone number appear only when the user enters a new name and needs the other fields to enter new data.
If that doesn't work, please provide more information about what you are trying to do. For example, here are a few questions to consider:
Q. What object are you using for the list?
Q. You say you want to be able to choose a person from a list of People, and their address, phone, etc automatically appears in the remaining fields address and phone number. What do you mean by etc. That is, exactly what objects are you planning to use for the other fields, and how many fields are there in total?
Q. Is your form connected to a data base, which can supply the data values for the address and phone number fields.
Q. What do you mean by 'a new person is chosen'. Normally the options on a list are pre-determined and added when you create the form. Do you want users to be able to add a new name to the list, and then enter that person's address and phone number in some adjacent fields?
Have a look at these sections in the Help to gain a better understanding of what's involved:

Drop down boxes like the ones used for dates don't work and hav'nt work for quite a while. What's going on?

Drop down boxes have not worked for the last few revisions of
Firefox. I've tried eliminating all add ons etc. bit to no avail. It does
not seem like this should be such a big problem to fix, since these
objects used to work fine in the past. I really like Firefox otherwise
and would hate to have to resort to another browser. The drop down box shown below does not work either, but that may be due to lack of content.

Yes, I've disabled everything. Even changed Windows 7 Themes, but no luck.
After sending this reply, it occurred to me that Actual Window Guard might be
the problem. When I excluded the Firefox window from Actual Window Guard
control the drop down boxes worked. Wish I would have thought of it sooner. Thanks to everyone who made suggestions and tried to help. I really do appreciate your time and effort.

HT2905 File Drop Down Menu does not have check for duplicutes??

Newest version of I Tunes File-Dropdown menu does not show check for duplicates. Is there another way?

You will still find it in the File menu in the Firefox 5 version that you are using.<br />
If Firefox 7 is has been moved to the Bookmarks Manager.
Press F10 or tap the Alt key to bring up the "Menu Bar" temporarily if the Menu Bar is hidden.
If you managed the bookmarks via the Google toolbar on the Google server then see:

Have problems staying connected since I downloaded latest version... also don't like the history drop down menu now. I use yahoo because its what came with my DSL from Verizon. Can I go back to the other version of Firefox or can this be fixed?

I can run about an hour and then it hangs up. Doesn't seem to depend on what website or program I am running. I walk away to change the laundry and come back and its hung. In the middle of a game on facebook, it hangs. Didn't have this problem with the version I used before. I have always liked Firefox and have used for a number of years. Don't want to change if it can be fixed.

You should be able to have NoSquint working properly if you use an extension to restore the Add-on toolbar.

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.

Drop-down Menu to Open URL for File Download

I am using Adobe Captivate 5.5 and was wondering if it is possible to create a drop-down menu that can be used to open different URLs for file downloads, kind of like the Attachments button Presenter has. Captivate seems to have a dropdown widget available but I can't tell if this would work for this purpose.

Hi Theo
You can use any composition to create a menu with setting for show target on rollover and then link targets to specific pages.

Use drop-down menu to control plot visibility

Hello everyone,
I have simple data reading program that loads and parses a text file containing tab-delimited data. Currently, they are parsed and plotted in 7 separate graphs. I am trying to reduce this to 3 graphs where the user can select from a drop-down menu what they would like to be displayed.
Eg. Graph 1 would have choices data A, B and C; Graph 2 would have data D, E, F and etc
The user would select on the drop-down box data A on graph 1 and data F on graph 2.
Is there an easy way to this? I have read some ideas about plot visibility.
Thanks
Thomas

Each plot on a chart has its own Plot Visible property. One easy solution is to graph all the data, then set the visibility property for each line based on the selection from the drop-down menu. To set visibility for an individual plot, first set the Active Plot property to the plot that you want, then set the Visible property. You can do this in a single property node; make sure that the Active Plot property is at the top (property nodes execute in top-to-bottom order, and can be mixed read and write).

Flash freezes in Firefox when I scroll the mouse wheel over a drop down list or text field (possibly others as well).

Whenever I scroll in a drop down menu in Flash in Firefox (for example, I move the mouse wheel just one detent), it just continues scrolling on its own all the way to the bottom of the list and freezes all interaction for about 10 seconds. It's really bizarre.
If I start click and dragging things, nothing happens, and then all of the sudden everything catches up and moves. As an experienced programmer, I can say that it looks like some kind of queuing of keyboard/mouse events with delayed execution. Has anyone else encountered this issue?
I found something from 2008 that sounds similar, although I am not using the sIFR they mentioned: sIFR mouse wheel scrolling freeze in Firefox - Stack Overflow
Seems to be a Firefox-specific issue, although it also seems to be something that has just recently started occurring since updating Firefox.
UPDATE: I was checking my Firefox version in Help > About Firefox, and it showed version 33, but also had a pending update so I restarted Firefox. The problem was no longer occurring at that point. When I checked the version again, it said 33.0.2, but it also said "applying update", with another pending restart. I restarted Firefox again. It's now stable at version 33.1. So perhaps it was a problem with that particular version, or even a temporary issue with that running browser instance.

Thank you for sharing your solution with us. It will help other users with a similar issue.

Setting default value in dynamic drop-down menu

Hi,
I created a simple drop-down menu that can be used to edit an
existing record or to create a new record.
When creating a new record, I'd like the drop-down menu to
display "Not specified" by default. Could anyone help me with this?
The "Not specified" option in the drop-down menu should refer
to record ID 11 in my database table entitled "names".
Here's what my code looks like so far.
The db queries:
<CFQUERY DATASOURCE="DATA" NAME="get">
SELECT *
FROM names
order by name
</CFQUERY>
<CFQUERY DATASOURCE="DATA" NAME="quo">
SELECT *
FROM quotes
WHERE quoteID = #quoteID#
</CFQUERY>
This part is for the existing database record:
<select name="frn_ID">
<cfoutput query="get">
<option value="#id#"<cfif id is quo.frn_ID>
selected</cfif>>#name#</option>
</cfoutput>
</select>
Here is where I'd like the ID with a default value of 11 to
be displayed:
<cfelse>
<select name="frn_ID">
<cfoutput query="get">
<option value="#id#">#name#</option>
</cfoutput>
</select>
</cfif>
Thank you for any help with this!
Luke

Thank you.
I added this line:
<CFSET ThisOne = 11>
and then edited the drop-down menu to appear like this:
<select name="frn_ID">
<cfoutput query="get">
<option value="#id#" <cfif ThisOne is ID>
selected</cfif>>#name#</option>
</cfoutput>
</select>

How do I get the Back Button drop down menu back?

When surfing in a tab there used to be a drop down menu next to the forward and back buttons. It was a little tiny triangle looking arrow. This was really useful and needed. It is gone in Firefox 4 as far as I can see. I am using the default 4.0 Theme. If it is not there anymore I will have to go going back to 3.16 if the drop down menu is gone. Thanks for any help.

''How do I get the Back Button drop down menu back?''
* "'''Back/forward dropmarker'''" extension<br>https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/backforward-dropmarker/
I do prefer Right-click on tab for tab history, or hold a couple of seconds, as the drop-down marker takes up space and had been removing it myself. Although I think it should have been an option.

IPhone 4 wifi portal login with drop down menu

Hi,
I'm extremely happy with my iPhone 4. I use it often in WiFi hotspots (hotels, university, train stations etc) and the new portal log in system is really handy. Previously I used a third party WiFi portal logging in app which is now no longer necessary. HOWEVER, there seems to be a problem with the iPhone 4 remembering log in protocols for WiFi portals that include selecting an item from a drop down menu before logging in. For instance, the WiFi hotspots in trainstations here in the Netherlands work with several protocols depending on through which organisation you can log in. Before entering your log in details you have to select through which organisation you have access to such a hotspot. The third party logging in app was able to remember how to do this, but the iPhone 4 auto logging in thing (sorry, I don't know the term) does not remember. It's frustrating to have to fill the details in every time. And I can't even use the third party app any more because it needs primary connection to the local WiFi before it can log in, and the iPhone 4 won't give a primary connection if you don't fill in the details to log in (and if you do, you're already logged in and the third party app is useles...)
Sorry for my rant, I'm wondering if there's a way to make the iPhone 4 log in tool-thing remember the protocol for logging in with drop down menus, or if there will be an update to fix it...
Thanks,
Tasmin
P.S. I'm running iOS 4.1

are you sure your stop() are in the right place??
eg.. on the last frame of the onRollOver animation??
also... why have you got on(releaseOutside); ???
onRollOut will suffice.

Cp5.5, system simulation - drop down menu?

Good morning.
I've never really found an elegant way to do this in captivate, but when building a simulation is there an efficient way to build in a drop down menu that learners can use to select from a list of items?
I've tried the quiz question method and that didn't work for me because I had multiple objects on the page that the learner needed to interact with, and I couldn't control which order they'd select them.
Ideas?

Andy,
I wanted to propose the dropdown widget, but in CP5.5 it is cause of memory leaks (like the combobox widget that is almost the same). That problem seems to be solved in CP6. That was the reason I never blogged about those two widgets. An alternative could be the Listbox widget, but that allows users to select more than one item. If they don't know about that possibility and you define only one variable (you can have more), this wil not be a problem.

Problems with flash transparent drop down menu over html in some browsers

Hi everyone... this is my first post and it's about an issue
that's causing me a few problems.
I'm currently designing/ building my company's web site, the
test page be viewed here: www.musflashtv.com/test.htm
1) This layout contains an embeded flash movie (.swf) with a
transparent background, this is the main navigation.
The flash navigation has a drop down menu that animates down
and covers the html page (containing links) below.
The problem is that in most current browsers such as; Firefox
2.0.05 (links below template don't work), Netscape 8.1.3
(navigation drop down and links don't work) and Opera 9.10 (links
below template don't work), any links just below the 'invisible'
transparent area coverd by the navigation can't be clicked 'through
the flash file'. The exception is IE 7.0, everything is fine there.
(it hasn't been tested in any mac browsers though).
Because the area below the navigation on
www.kitachi.info/work is one large dummy jpeg file, the link below
would be a much better example to look at.
http://www.musflashtv.com/shows/ind...tlight-Sessions
The flash navigation is embedded in the html (tlp) template
file using the code below and aligned using an external style
(.css) sheet, this html code not only embeds the flash movie but it
also tells the browser to display it's background and as
transparent. The flash movie is embedded in a layer that sits above
the table.
3) The flash embed code:
<object
classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" codebase="
http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=8,0,0,0"
name="shows-navigation-tranparent" width="851" height="300"
align="top" class="flash-navigation"
id="shows-navigation-tranparent">
<param name="allowScriptAccess" value="sameDomain" />
<param name="movie"
value="flash/navigation-tranparent.swf" />
<param name="quality" value="high" />
<param name="wmode" value="transparent" />
<param name="bgcolor" value="#000000" />
<param name="SCALE" value="exactfit" />
<embed src="flash/navigation-tranparent.swf" width="851"
height="300" align="top" quality="high" wmode="transparent"
bgcolor="#000000" name="navigation-tranparent"
allowscriptaccess="sameDomain" type="application/x-shockwave-flash"
pluginspage="
http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer"
scale="exactfit" />
</object>
Does anybody know of any code that can solve this problem or
know a different way of creating a flash navigation with a drop
menu that can be embeded over html?
Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated especially as
this issue is holding back progress in a big way.
Thanks in advance guys!
