You can't. Flash elements are always on top of everything
else on the
web page.

Yes. Create the style you want to use and save it to the
Styles panel.
With the new style selected, open the Styles panel menu and
choose
Export styles. Export to the Fireworks Nav Menu folder. On my
machine
that's located at
C:\Documents and Settings\Linda Rathgeber\Application
Data\Macromedia\Fireworks 8\Nav Menu
Once you have saved the new style there, it will appear in
the Image >
Styles selections for the pop-up menus.

From the Help files:
Exporting a sliced document-
By default, when you export a sliced Fireworks document, an
HTML file
and associated images are exported. The exported HTML file
can be viewed
in a web browser or imported into other applications for
further editing.
Before export, be sure you have the appropriate HTML style
selected in
the HTML Setup dialog box. For more information, see Setting
HTML export
options.
Select File > Export.
Navigate to the desired folder on your hard drive.
Select HTML and Images from the Export pop-up menu.
Type a filename in the File Name (Windows) or Save As
(Macintosh) box.
Select Export HTML File from the HTML pop-up menu.
Select Export Slices from the Slices pop-up menu.
(Optional) Select Put Images in Subfolder.
Click Export.
The files Fireworks exported appear on your hard disk. Images
and an
HTML file are generated in the location you specified in the
Export
dialog box.
For more information about the options available in the
Export dialog
box when HTML and Images is selected as the file type, see
Exporting
Fireworks HTML.

Dropdown menu help

Hello,
I am updating my website, and created a dropdown menu using fireworks. (later I installed it into dreamweaver, but I'm not sure that that makes any difference) The problem I am having is that each item in the dropdown menu opens in a new tab when I click it, and I want it to stay in the same window. My site is here: www.nicolemn.com
Any suggestions on how I can fix this?
Thank you.

That code is awful! How in the world do you expect to maintain this code with names like these? Using Fireworks code for a live site (rather than building in Dreamweaver, for example) is just asking for trouble.
Here's your menu code:
<a id="MMMenu0120182959_0_Item_0" class="MMMIFVStyleMMMenu0120182959_0" onmouseover="MM_menuOverMenuItem('MMMenu0120182959_0');" target="Home" href="http://www.nicolemn.com/home.html"> Home </a>
<a id="MMMenu0120182959_0_Item_1" class="MMMIVStyleMMMenu0120182959_0" onmouseover="MM_menuOverMenuItem('MMMenu0120182959_0','1');" target="Photography" href="http://www.nicolemn.com/photography.html"></a>
<a id="MMMenu0120182959_0_Item_2" class="MMMIVStyleMMMenu0120182959_0" onmouseover="MM_menuOverMenuItem('MMMenu0120182959_0');" target="Design" href="http://www.nicolemn.com/design.html"> Design </a>
<a id="MMMenu0120182959_0_Item_3" class="MMMIVStyleMMMenu0120182959_0" onmouseover="MM_menuOverMenuItem('MMMenu0120182959_0');" target="About" href="http://www.nicolemn.com/about.html"> About </a>
<a id="MMMenu0120182959_0_Item_4" class="MMMIVStyleMMMenu0120182959_0" onmouseover="MM_menuOverMenuItem('MMMenu0120182959_0');" target="Contact" href="http://www.nicolemn.com/contact.html"> Contact </a>
<a id="MMMenu0120182959_0_Item_5" class="MMMIVStyleMMMenu0120182959_0" onmouseover="MM_menuOverMenuItem('MMMenu0120182959_0');" target="Link" href="http://www.nicolemn.com/links.html"> Links </a>
Answer to your question:
Your trouble is with these bits in the code above:
target="Home"
target="Photography"
target="Design"
target="About"
target="Contact"
target="Link"
The target attribute has to do with what window the link opens in. You have each link open in a new named window (not a standard thing to do). See this description: http://www.developingwebs.net/html/targetattribute.php You need to remove the target attributes in the section of code I quoted and anywhere else you're using them inappropriately.
Optional stuff:
You might also consider whether or not each link needs its own id and if a more memorable class name ("mainnav" perhaps?) might be better than "MMMIFVStyleMMMenu0120182959_0."
I'm not a fan of your menu only showing up if the user mouses over your logo. What if the user never does that? You're pinning your hopes and expectations on a random user behavior. That's poor usability. Navigation should be clear, not hidden. Also, users dislike splash pages, as it's extra time needed to load a page that has no content on it. It's a barrier to content and the Web is all about access to content.

Edit and export dropdown menu slice

I need to change a dropdown menu navigation panel button in
an already published site. When you right click a sliced image in
the original fireworks png file you can export just that slice.
But that is not an option when you select a navigation button
slice
How can I edit individual buttons on my navigation panel?
I am exporting to Frontpage 2003.

How to get all the values from the dropdown menu

How to get all the values from the dropdown menu
I need to be able to extract all values from the dropdown menu; I know how to get all those values as a string, but I need to be able to access each item; (the value in a dropdown menu will change dynamically)
How do I get number of item is selection dropdown?
How do I extract a ?name? for each value, one by one?
How do I change a selection by referring to particular index of the item in a dropdown menu?
Here is the Path to dropdown menu that I'm trying to access (form contains number of similar dropdowns)
RSWApp.om.GetElementByPath "window(index=0).form(id=""aspnetForm"" | action=""advancedsearch.aspx"" | index=0).formelement[SELECT](name=""ctl00$MainContent$hardwareBrand"" | id=""ctl00_MainContent_hardwareBrand"" | index=16)", element
Message was edited by: testtest

The findElement method allows various attributes to be used to search. Take the following two examples for the element below:
<Select Name=ProdType ID=testProd>
</Select>
I can find the element based on its name or any other attribute, I just need to specify what I am looking for. To find it by name I would do the following:
Set x = RSWApp.om.FindElement("ProdType","SELECT","Name")
If I want to search by id I could do the following:
Set x = RSWApp.om.FindElement("testProd","SELECT","ID")
Usually you will use whatever is available. Since the select element has no name or ID on the Empirix home page, I used the onChange attribute. You can use any attribute as long as you specify which one you are using (last argument in these examples)
You can use the FindElement to grab links, text boxes, etc.
The next example grabs from a link on a page
Home
Set x = RSWApp.om.FindElement("Home","A","innerText")
I hope this helps clear it up.

How to create a dropdown menu with sub buttons that link back to the labels on click.

im trying to create a dropdown menu buttons that when you rollover to the top central button the button it opens up like a drop down menu would containg two other subsectional buttons.

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.

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.

Does anyone know how to enable/disable a dropdown menu in Forms at runtime?

Is there a way how to disable/enable dropdown menu for menus that have multiple sub levels in Oracle Forms? I am trying to use the set_menu_item_property function but this takes 'menu.item' format for the first argument. I am trying to enable/disable a menu item in the form of 'menu.item.subitem' and was not able to do it using this function. If anyone knows a different function or method, please reply. I have shown an example below.
Setup -> Software -> Front Page
From the above example, I can enable/disable Software using set_menu_item_property function. But, how do I enable/disable the Front Page menu in Oracle forms at runtime?
Thanks
Edited by: user480347 on Aug 24, 2010 3:37 PM

Yes you are on the right track. You need to pass then complete menu name to set_menu_item_property
Immediate_parent menu.item_name e.g
For example you have menu like this
Id like
A1 A10 > A1010
Home > Input > Form 1
A1 A10 > A1020
Home > Input > Form 2 To disable Form 2 you must pass menu name as
A10.A1020Hope it helps

Dropdown menu in APEX 4.0

Hi,
I am wondering how to create the Dropdown menu in APEX 4.0. Similar to the Oracle Application Express Homepage or the one gets created in any Websheet Application. I have tried to use the List but unable to place into the right position (Display Point) to get similar look and feel in Theme 2. Builder Blue.
Please let me know if there is a easy way along with the steps.
Thanks,
AS

The steps can be detailed as follows (I will make it specific to my theme -Application Builder- and you can replace what you want)
0) a) My Page template name is WithNicolettePlugin.
b) Put the Nicolette (Thanks alot for him) plugin on #REGION_POSITION_08# in Page Zero (Global page)
c) the settings of the plugin as follows:
- Template : WithNicolettePlugin
- Before HTML : <ul class="dhtmlMenuLG2"> - After HTML : </ul> - jQuery selector submenu : .dhtmlSubMenu2
- Tab set : main
- Include single subtab : yes
- Class first parent : ui-corner-left
- Class last parent : ui-corner-right
- File Prefix : #IMAGE_PREFIX#
the others are empty
1) link the following CSS's into the Header section of the Page Template of (Bluejay-22)

Resetting a dropdown menu selection

I am using a dropdown menu as a form of navigation between screens. On screen one you drop the menu down and can choose to go to screen two. However, when I come back to screen one the drop down menu remains on the "Screen Two" option. Is there
any way to reset the drop down menu to say"Screen One" upon leaving the page?
Thank you!

The only way I know about is to reset dropdown each time you navigate back to Screen1. To do that just set a variable in screen1 property
OnVisible
UpdateContext({active: true})
and in screen1 property OnHidden
UpdateContext({active: false})
Then in dropdown visual add this in Items
If(active=true, .... your data source here ...)
Or perhaps easiest way is instead of resetting datasource of dropdown, you can reset dropdown default by adding this into
Default property of dropdown
If(active=true, "Screen1")

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.

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
