Duplicate Drop Down Menu

I have a drop down menu in one of my forms that has numerous (over 50) items. How can I copy and paste this listing to keep from having to re-type the information?

Make sure that rather than having the cursor inside of the field, you click on the field itself - click away from the field and then click the handle on the left side of the field to simply "select" that field (the drop down) and then use the keyboard commands, this will create a duplicate drop down below the first one with the same data.
If this is not working, what happens when you "paste"? If nothing happens I would try another web browser, our application runs in Flash and occasionaly there are bugs in recognizing those keyboard commands but it should work in a different web browser. You should also make sure Flash player is up to date: http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
Thanks,
Josh

How to add my drop down menu to my website

I have been following a dreamweaver video to create a drop down menu with pure css which has turned out great. My problem is when you follow a video I followed the instructions and started a new html and then attached the css styles to the new html called "dropdownmenu". But as I don't know how to put it in my index page. I understand that css is the rules but how to I get it in my website. Most prob an easy one for all you experts out there!
I hope someone will help me please.
Thanks Karen
Oh im useing cs5.5

Thank you very much for taking you time to answer me. I have managed to do this but I get a bit confused with the files so I hope you can just help on this one!
I went to duplicate the dropdown.css file and put it in my css folder but the file was already there, also a link was in the css file altough it did not have "media=screen". I duplicated the dropdown.css and put it in my dropdown.html, not sure if that is right. This is how I have set out my files.                                                           Folder - dropdown
                                                                                                           -navMenu.html
                                                                                                           -dropdown.css
                                                                                   Folder - css
                                                                                                          - dropdown.css
                                                                                                          -styles.css
My index page link between the "head" is <link href="css/styles.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" /> ----so am I right in saying that the styles.css is determing the index page at mo and any future pages if I want.
And the link from the navMenu.html is <link href="../css/dropdown.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />------and this is getting the information from the dropdown css.
If I am correct do I need both copies of the dropdown.css? I hope this is nice and clear for you!
Once again thank you very much for your help.... it is very much appreciated! I spend most of my time learning from youtube and don't really like to bother people but after an hour of scratching my head I gave up!

How do I add "Save As" to the Pages drop down menu?

How do I add "Save As" to the Pages drop down menu?

It took me awhile but I found what I was looking for. This is posted at http://www.tuaw.com/2012/07/29/get-save-as-back-on-mountain-lions-file-menu-easi ly-and-without/
Option 1. Terminal.app If you are comfortable using Terminal.app, you can add a different keyboard shortcut this with one simple line. First, quit all your apps except Finder and Terminal. Then paste this command (as one line) into Terminal.app (and press Return):
1
defaults write -globalDomain NSUserKeyEquivalents -dict-add 'Save As...' '@$S'
view rawdwrite-global-saveas.sh hosted with ❤ by GitHub
That's it!
Launch TextEdit and open the 'File' menu and you should see "Save As..." back in its rightful spot with its original Command + Shift + S shortcut, as shown in the image above.
Aside: After you enter the 'defaults write' command, you will not see any confirmation that it was entered correctly. Terminal.app is a little terse sometimes. If you want to verify it from the command-line, enter this:
defaults read -globalDomain NSUserKeyEquivalents
and look for "Save As..." = "@$s"; in the output.
Option 2. System Preferences.app If you would rather not use Terminal, it's still very easy to add the keyboard shortcut.
Launch the System Preferences.app, then open the "Keyboard" preference pane.
At the top you will see "Keyboard" and "Keyboard Shortcuts" – click "Keyboard Shortcuts" (labeled '1' below). Then in the list on the left side, click "Application Shortcuts" (labeled '2' below). Then click the "+" button (labeled '3' below):
Once you press that "+" button, a small window will appear asking you to enter the title of the menu item and the keyboard shortcut that you want to use.
Enter "Save As..." in the "Menu Title:" field, and then press the keyboard shortcut that you want to use. In the example below I pressed Command + Shift + S:
Note: It used to be true that you had to enter an actual ellipsis (which you can get by pressing Option+ ; on a US-English keyboard). However, when I tested this in Mac OS X 10.8.2, it worked with three consecutive periods.
Bonus Tip: Hide the "Duplicate" menu item.
In my original article I suggested that you also enter a keyboard shortcut for "Duplicate" and while youcan do that if you wish, you do not need to do that.
However, if you would like to hide the Duplicate menu item, you can do that. There are two steps: first, remap "Save As..." to Command + Shift + S (as shown above). Then the 'trick' is to remap "Duplicate" to Command + Shift + Option + S.
What you will have done is swap the keyboard shortcuts for "Duplicate" and "Save As..." which means that OS X will make "Duplicate" the optional command. If you open the "File" menu and hold down "Option" the "Save As..." command will change to "Duplicate"
(Thanks to TUAW reader 'rbascuas' for pointing this out in response to the original article!)
Important Addendum: "Keep changes in original document"
As we reported in August 2012, the "Save As..." command in early versions of 10.8 had an unexpected and likely unwanted side effect in Mountain Lion: it would save the changes in the new document (created by "Save As...") but would also save the changes to the original document.
However, Apple realized that users might not want that behavior, so in Mac OS X 10.8.2 they added an option "Keep changes in original document" which you can see here:
Option A: If you want to save the changes you've made in the document and then save the document with a different name, then make sure that the box is checked.
Option B: If you want your original document to stay as it was when you last saved it and create a new document based on the modified content of that document, then make sure that box is not checked.
If you do not see the 'Keep changes in original document' box, then the application is probablygoing to give you the "Option B" behavior, but if you are not sure, I would suggest choosing Cancel in the "Save" dialog, then copy and paste the contents of the document into a new file, and save the new file. I know that's several extra-and-less-convenient steps, but if you are worried about preserving the original document, better safe than sorry.
You could also save the file, duplicate it in Finder, and rename the new instance. Open old file and revert to previous save using 'Versions'.
Frankly,I wish that Apple had just left the "Save As..." command alone, but for some reason they didn't ask my opinion. That said, I'm glad that they brought it back in Mountain Lion. I would have paid $20 for that feature alone.
Note: This article was re-written and republished on 2013–02–21. The original process still works, but I wanted to update it to reflect some additional information.

Is there a way to get ACR to appear in the "Open With" drop down menu?

Hi,
Is there a way to get Adobe Camera Raw to appear directly along with CS3 in the Mac's ( OS 10.4.11) "Open With" drop down menu?

If you installed ACR it in the right place, and are targeting the kind of file that ACR can handle, it should be there.
I have found that there are certain Tiff Scans that won't open in ACR but if you just Duplicate them in Bridge, and then target the Duplicate, they will then open in ACR.
At least they do so for me.

Drop-down menu in Dreamweaver; template on top of template issue

Hello.
I've managed to create a drop-down menu in a dreamweaver
template by saving the .dwt file as an .html file, building the
menu, then resaving the file as the original .dwt. However, I have
another template that is based on this original template, and while
the drop-down menu appears when I preview the second template in my
browser, it refuses to apply to the pages upon which the second
template is based.
Is there a solution to this?

You are completely hosed now.
When you save a template as HTML, you leave the Template
markup in the page.
When you then resave it as a template you duplicate that
markup. You will
never be able to use this properly now. And that is
especially true with
the AWFUL DW pop-up menus in it. You just must not use these
menus with
templates. Especially since there are much better ways that
don't have any
such restrictions -

In view drop down menue I do have fasi languagein encoding for middle east langauges

<blockquote>Locking duplicate thread.<br>
Please continue here: [/questions/821055]</blockquote><br>
In view drop down menu for encoding middle east languages I don,t see Farsi language

I have this same problem, which began precisely with the release of 33.0.1. I have been downgrading back to 32.0.3, where this problem does not occur. Each time 33 has had a build update or a release update, I've gone ahead and let the update take place, then tried again, at which this problem came back. This has been the case with 33.0.2 and 33.0.3 as well.
I just went ahead and updated to the latest 33.1 release and found this problem still exists. Before downgrading once more back to 32.0.3, where this problem does not exists, I did a search, found this page, and followed the instructions set forth by ideato.
However, I have concerns. Generally, hardware acceleration is something that gets used for things like--oh I don't know, watching video? Why would hardware acceleration be used to display a drop down menu??? What is wrong with this picture? And why are there no problems whatsoever in 32, but this problem manifests in every build and release of 33?
I think there is a problem here that Firefox developers should look into more carefully. I don't think it's cool to behave dismissively toward users who have stuck with this product through thick and thin since it was still called Netscape.
So now that I've disabled hardware acceleration in Firefox, what other problems can I expect to manifest from having done so?

Is there a way to create a drop down menu with an automatic answer dependent on what is chosen?

Is there a way to create a drop down menu with an automatic answer dependent on what is chosen? An if-then statement perhaps? I am looking to add over 100 drop down options and would like to have a message automatically pop up depending one which option they chose. Thank you.

Hi,
You would use the skip logic to conditionally show form items based on the selection within the drop-down menu. Here's a link to a description of the feature in our help documentation:

Hi Bruce and fruhulda,
ok, I found the keyboard viewer, it only shows the traditional symbol 'return'. something like a sideway u-turn continued with the arrow under. This is the Canadian or US keyboard.
btw thanks for your suggestion.

Trying to create a drop down menu in numbers...please help

Hi
Can anyone indicate how to go about creating a drop-down menu.
Thanks in advance

Hi Meela,
Welcome to Apple Discussions and the Numbers 08 forum.
Check page 66 of the Numbers User Guide supplied with your copy of iWork. The guide refers to them as "pop-up" menus, so a search using "pop-up" will be more successful than one using "drop down".
Essentially the process is:
Click on the cell to select it.
Open the Inspector and choose Cell Format (icon is a cell containing 42)
Click the Cell Format menu and select Pop-up Menu from the bottom of the list.
Double click an item in the list to edit it. Click the + button to add an item, the - button to delete the selected item.
Done.
Regards,
Barry

Contacts drop-down menu blocked by on screen keyboard in text messages

Whenever I draft a new text message I put the cursor in the contact box and type the first letter of the name of the person I am trying to contact. If I have more than 3 people in my phone whose names start with that letter, the drop down menu becomes partially obscured by the on screen keyboard. If I attempt to scroll down on the menu, it selects whomever I happen to press. My attempts to minimize the keyboard have been futile. I understand I can work around this by going into contacts and selecting someone to text, but the problem is pretty aggravating. Please help!

It won't let me share my movie. Nothing happens when I click "share" or even in the drop down menu. I don't get options. HELP! I need this video by tonight!

I have worked with iMoive a ton and have never had an issue. I consider myself pretty computer savvy. This new iMovie is not my friend. It will not let me share my new video. I click on the project and click "share" like it says but I don't receive any further prompt. It literally does nothing. I tried the drop down menu and I see the "share" with an arrow indicating there are options but no drop down menu appears. I need this video by tonight to submit for work. HELP!

I got it to share! No reloading iMovie!
I do not have Mackeeper on my laptop
I have the movie files on an external hard drive
1. Close out iMovie
2. Eject the external hard drive
3. Start up iMovie
4. Plug in the external hard drive
5. Go into finder and double click on the folder containing the movie
6. Select the movie as if to edit
7. Share it!
I hope this works for you too
