Editable drop-down problem.

Hello all,
Here's the issue. I have an editable dropdown list/menu in a table. The table is hidden upon page load. When the user clicks the link to open the table, the editable drop down is only 1 or 2 pixels wide. How do I get the editable drop down to open at the prescribed 300px?
Here's the code:
<select name="CGSector1" id="CGSector1" wdg:subtype="DynamicInput" wdg:type="widget" wdg:recordset="rsCGSectors" wdg:displayfield="CGSectors" wdg:valuefield="CGSectors" wdg:norec="150" wdg:singleclickselect="yes" wdg:defaultoptiontext="no" wdg:restrict="No" wdg:ext="php" style="width:300px" wdg:fakeattribute="<?php WDG_registerRecordInsert("connStr_xxxxxx", "rsCGSectors", "CGSectors", "CGSectors");?>"></select>
Thank you.
Brian

As this issue is not directly related to ADDT, but assumingly rather to e.g. aspects like the defined (if any) width of the initially hidden table, please give a link to the complete page code (or a live page) to help others with spotting the possible reason for this.
However it should be mentioned that ADDT´s "editable dropdown" is generated on-the-fly using some proprietary AJAX functionality as well (including the style rendering), so maybe the style setting you defined here just gets ignored when the surrounding "container" (aka the table) gets hidden by - for instance - using features from another AJAX library like JQuery which is certainly incompatible with than ADDT´s own AJAX implementation.
Cheers,
Günter

How to modify the size of the editable drop down

I have used the editable drop down list which works perfectly. The only problem i find is that it has a static width, unlike a regular select/option list that adjust according to the lengh of the data that is in it. Is there any way i can adjust the width of the editable drop down list. Thank you.

try removing the width completely...leave that field blank

Editable drop downs in sharepoint?

Is there any way to create "editable" drop downs for a list in sharepoint? Meaning that if the value is not listed, the user can add it right away.
Thanks,
Carlos Roberto Vargas

You mean a SharePoint list forms right? In the settings for the choice column in the list settings there is an option that lets you specify whether your users can add their own choices. Enabling this will allow users to add their own
terms.
Or you can set the choice column as a look-up list and let them add additional options to the look-up column.

Editing Drop Down Menus in Contribute

I have a client who is using contribute and wants to edit
drop down menus. These drop down menus link to individual pdfs and
she changes the names of the pdfs on a regular basis and wants to
update these links in the drop down menus. The site was created in
Dreamweaver. In role preferences of Contribute I turned on the
allow unrestricted editiing which allows form elements to be
edited. However I cannot figure out how to change the drop down
menus. Is there any way to edit the drop down menus fields in
Contribute?

Create a SSI (with PHP f.i.), best in de root of the site,
considering the way Contribute is handling linking.
Call the file something like menu.inc.php.
Provide your client with the url to menu.inc.php in the
Bookmarks or explain the Choose-button in Contribute to open the
file menu.inc.php.
Keep the file simple (ul/li or p) .

Editable Drop-Down List

Hello!
I am using Dreamweaver's Editable Drop-Down List
Application panel, Server Behaviors > + > Developer Toolbox > Form Controls > Editable Drop-down
Which has been a GREAT option, but I need to add on 1 option, when I am about to ADD an item to the list, all you can do is add 1 item to 1 column in a database.
Database Struture:
listid   userid   listItem    listitemValue
But all I can get it to update is listItem I need to be able to when the button, "ADD THIS" is pushed, that I can add a value to USERID also, is this possible? I tried diving deap into it, but some certains things I just didn't understand that far down.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Cheers, and thank you in advance.

Ok I completely misunderstood. Sorry for the confusion. I'm afraid I may not be much help on this particular function. Some functions I've really torn apart and modified, this is not one of them.
This does not look like one of the more simple functions to change unlike some others,
Before trying to go into lengthy info on how to break it down, is there any chance the info you are trying to update is some type of default name or incremental name, something than can be hard coded? ..or is it unique like a visitor, so you are pulling down each time? Ex: User1, user2    vs.   sally101, david2009, etc.
IF not, there are a several lines of variable setting and function modification to change at first glance.
I can look into later, but the variables are not even in the same insert function page.
Here is the Key line in WDG_recordsetInsert.php,
$sql = 'INSERT INTO ' . $vars['table'] . ' (' . KT_escapeFieldName($vars['updatefield']) . ') VALUES (' . KT_escapeForSql($text, 'STRING_TYPE') . ')';
but the vars appear to come out of an array in 'WDG_functions.inc.php : here is the function variables being set for the insert function above
$WDG_sessInsTest = &$_SESSION['WDG_sessInsTest'];
     $WDG_sessInsTest[] = array(
          'conn' => $connectionName,
          'rsName' => $rsName,
          'table' => $sqlTable,
          'idfield' => $idField,
          'updatefield' => $updateField     );
This array (at first glance) could be modified, but I can't promise that the vars will carry through because I don't see exactly where this array is being used again.
As I mentioned, if the values you need are something you could hard code and increment, you could easily modify the 'insert to' function above.
I would also toy around with some $_POST data and Session data vars and see if you can drop those straight into the sql statement above.
Sorry I can't be more help on this one.

Editable drop-down control???

hi,
How can i get editable drop-down control in my JSP page.
is it possible thr' java script or swings or something else???
plz help.
sam

This should do the trick. Just pass the value and the text as parameters to the function.
<html>
<body>
<form name="dropDownForm">
Value: <input type="text" name="optionText">
Text: <input type="text" name="optionValue">
<input type="button" value="Add option" onclick="addOption(document.dropDownForm.optionValue.value, document.dropDownForm.optionText.value)">
<br><br>
<select name="dropList"></select>
<script>
function addOption(value, text)
var position=document.dropDownForm.dropList.length;
document.dropDownForm.dropList.options[position]=new Option(value,text);
</script>
</form>
</body>
</html>

Editable drop downs and safari

Editable drop downs don't seem to show the "Add This" button in Safari on the Mac. It works in Firefox on the Mac and all Windows browsers. Does anyone have a fix for this?
Thanks

LMatts,
This may be a CSS issue. You may have to edit the ADDT CSS. For testing purposes, try removing the CSS formatting from the HTML and see what displays. Remove the class="KT_tngtable" and class="KT_th from the table code that ADDT forms create and see what it looks like.

You can edit the properties (Visible/Invisible, etc ) but not restrict the values originally displayed.

Spry horizontal drop down problem in IE

I would appreciate some help with a project I'm working on. My spry horizontal drop down menu looks best in Apple Safari on a Mac and looks worst in IE 8 on a PC. There are also some problems apparent in Firefox for both PC and Mac.
The problem in IE is that the horizontal bar is not the correct height even though I have set the height in the css:
ul.MenuBarHorizontal a
    display: block;
    cursor: pointer;
    color: #FFF;
    text-decoration: none;
    font-family: "Arial Narrow", Arial, Helvetica;
    font-size: 10pt;
    padding-top: 0.7em;
    padding-bottom: 0em;
    font-weight: normal;
    background-repeat: repeat-x;
    background-image: url(/2011images/gradientnav.jpg);
    height: 30px;
The drop downs are the correct size, just the top menu bar that is not the right size.
The menu bar is the correct height in Firefox and Safari, but in Firefox the menu bar is a few pixels higher than it should be.
Here's the page I'm working on.
