Fireworks 8 pop-up menus
I built a nice .png pop-up menu in Fireworks 8, exported it
to Dreamweaver 8, had it work nicely until I tried to put the menu
on a second page of the site. I found that I should put .pngs in
the Dreamweaver Library to use them more than once on the same site
but then I learn that Dreamweaver Library doesn't support Fireworks
pop_up menus.
Anybody know how to work around this. I'd like to use the
menu on many pages. I see it done on other websites.
This is my first website and all was going well. Thanks in
advance.

How to edit DW 8 pop-up menus in DW CS5?
Hello,
Yes, I understand about Spry menu bar in CS5 and will use it in the future for creating new pop-up menus.
However, I have already created many pop-up menus using DW 8 for multiple web sites and standalone web pages - about 100 web pages total - for my employer.
Is it possible to edit these DW 8 pop-up menus from within DW CS5?
I did try the only instructions I found, which I thought were to choose ~ Deprecated from the Behaviors menu, and then choose the Pop-up menu. However, even when I have open a web page in CS5 containing an existing pop-up menu I created in DW 8, I do not see anything about Deprecated on the Behaviors menu.
I tried positioning my cursor on the URL and then also on a graphic item associated with the pop-up menu behavior I applied in DW 8 - still did not see "Deprecated" in the Behaviors menu or how to select it. (Please note that my pop-up menus do not involve Fireworks MX in any way; they were created directly in DW 8 by applying the pop-up menu JavaScript behavior.)
What am I missing? How do I select "Deprecated" in the Behaviors menu?
Is there some other way - or any way at all - I can edit my pop-up menus previously created in 100+ web pages ? I really do not have time to re-do all of these web pages using Spry.
Please advise. Thanks!Hello, Thanks for the response. All of my web sites and standalone web pages are internal, behind the corporate firewall so I cannot provide you with links.
Recap: The pop-up menus I created in DW 8 work beautifully, seamlessly and were very easy to maintain in the earlier version of Dreamweaver. I have been using DW pop-up menus since 2004.
Goal: To update and edit these pop-up menus created in DW 8 - in DW CS5. Why? Because we have multiple websites and standalone web pages, 100+ web pages total, some with multiple pop-up menus on each page and it is not possible due to time limitations to re-code and re-develop all of these existing pages using the new Spry menu. We will use the Spry menu when we create new menus for new web pages in the future.
I have previously read here: http://help.adobe.com/en_US/Dreamweaver/10.0_Using/WSc78c5058ca073340dcda9110b1f693f21-7ae 9a.html that you choose ~ Deprecate from the Behaviors menu to update existing DW 8 pop-up menus in DW CS 5, but I do not have this option available to me - I do not see a "Deprecate" selection available when I select an existing DW 8 pop-up menu to edit in CS5. Perhaps I am doing something wrong? When I place my cursor on the pop-up menu items, and go to the Behaviors panel, I do not have a Deprecate option, and the pop-up menu actions are not available to select.
I am concerned that the only way it appears that I can edit the pop-up menus is to edit the HTML which is possible but messy, and defeats the reason for having DW in the first place. Otherwise, I guess we go back to using DW8 and don't use DW CS5 at all for our existing web pages. If that happens, management will certainly question "why did we pay $400 for a commercial license for a software product which does not allow us to edit our existing web pages?".
Here are two coding samples from my web pages with the links changed so that confidential information is non-identifiable:
Example 1
1. Link coding associated with the pop-up menu behavior (identifiable link information changed for this example):
<a href="examples1/index.html" name="link1" id="site-home" style="text-decoration:none" onmouseover="MM_showMenu(window.mm_menu_0112173011_0,152,-1,null,'link1')" onmouseout="MM_startTimeout();">Example link 1<img src="images/triangle-sm.gif" alt="pointer" width="5" height="6" style="margin-left:6px"/></a>
2. Associated coding in the <head> tag for this particular example:
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
<!--
function mmLoadMenus() {
if (window.mm_menu_0104100320_0) return;
window.mm_menu_0112173011_0 = new Menu("root",165,24,"Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif",11,"#000000","#FFFFFF","#99CCFF","#708EA8","left","middle",3,0,1000,-5,7,true ,true,true,3,false,false);
mm_menu_0112173011_0.addMenuItem("Example link 1 home","location='examples1/index.html'");
mm_menu_0112173011_0.addMenuItem("Page two","location='examples1/page2.html'");
mm_menu_0112173011_0.addMenuItem("Page three","location='examples1/page3.html'");
mm_menu_0112173011_0.hideOnMouseOut=true;
mm_menu_0112173011_0.bgColor='#FFFFFF';
mm_menu_0112173011_0.menuBorder=1;
mm_menu_0112173011_0.menuLiteBgColor='#FFFFFF';
mm_menu_0112173011_0.menuBorderBgColor='';
mm_menu_0112174423_0.writeMenus();
} // mmLoadMenus()
//-->
</script>
<script language="JavaScript" src="mm_menu.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
3. Of course, we load the menus in the first line after the open <body> tag:
<script language="JavaScript1.2">mmLoadMenus();</script>
The "mm_menu.js" file itself is located in the self-same directory/folder as the web page, so it loads properly and the pop-up menus function as expected.
Example 2
1. Link coding associated with the pop-up menu behavior (identifiable link information changed for this example):
<a href="javascript:void(0)" name="link5" id="link1" onclick="MM_showMenu(window.mm_menu_0203084229_0,-115,-40,null,'link5')" onmouseout="MM_startTimeout();">Reports</a>

mm_menu_0203091816_0.addMenuItem("Industryreport1","location='link1.html'");
mm_menu_0203091816_0.addMenuItem("Industryreport2","location='link2.html'");
mm_menu_0203091816_0.addMenuItem("Industryreport3","location='link3.html'");
mm_menu_0203091816_0.addMenuItem("Industryreport4","location='link4.html'");
mm_menu_0203091816_0.addMenuItem("Industryreport5","location='link5.html'");
mm_menu_0203091816_0.hideOnMouseOut=true;
mm_menu_0203091816_0.bgColor='#FFFFFF';
mm_menu_0203091816_0.menuBorder=1;
mm_menu_0203091816_0.menuLiteBgColor='#FFFFFF';
mm_menu_0203091816_0.menuBorderBgColor='#FFFFFF';

Pop-Up Menus and active content errors - Help!
I'm attempting to add pop-up menus to my navigation bar, to
make my site more user-friendly, but to no avail:
I've tried designing pop-up menus in Fireworks, then
importing the html code in, but that gives me errors when I try to
insert the bar. Then, I tried putting my menus in different layers,
with a "show layer" behavior on the button, and a "hide layer"
behavior attached to the roll-off of the layer, but my version of
Dreamweaver won't attach a behavior to a layer.
Then, I noticed the tech-note on this site for the fix to use
pop-ups in a template, so I added pop-up menus directly to my
navigational buttons using the wizard. So here's where my problem
comes in. . .
When I preview my page, it throws up an active content error,
but will still run. I uploaded it to my remote server, but when I
went to the url, no action takes place when I put my cursor over
it. Anybody have any ideas on how to create a pop-up menu that
won't throw up an active content error? I've seen them on plenty of
websites before, but can't figure how to do them.
Any light you could shed would be greatly appreciated!> I'm attempting to add pop-up menus to my navigation bar,

Sometimes, they make your site less user-friendly. So be
careful.
The DW/FW pop-up menus are usually something that should be
avoided. They
are very poorly thought out and implemented, and will likely
cause you
continuing problems. It's foolish to devote the time to them
that could be
more effectively be placed elsewhere, especially since there
are better
options that work right out of the box, so to speak. Please
check the free
and commercial options here -

> Any light you could shed would be greatly appreciated!
Don't use DW/FW pop-up menus.

Problem with Fireworks pop up menu in DW
(I already posted this on the DW forum, but it's also about
FW, so may be someone here knows about this as well.)
Hi,
I am working on a page whose layout was created in Fireworks
and transferred to DW. After I transferred the page to DW and
created new ones from the template, I went back to edit my page in
FW. I created a couple of rollovers and pop up menus. After I made
these edits, I went back to DW and everything worked fine on the
template page, but my pop up menus did not transfer correctly to
the other pages. They appear in weird places (bottom of the page!)
and the styles pretty much disappeared as well.
Does someone know what could be the problem and how to fix
it? One of the things I noticed is that the menus' CSS file is only
completely visible on the template but not on the other pages. In
the template I can see all the styles applied in the file, but on
the other pages only the CSS title appears, not the styles applied
to the pages.
I am using FW and DW 8.
I need HELP!!!
Thanks for any information you can provide.
MS> Does someone know what could be the problem and how to
fix it?
The general problem is that fly-out menus created in FW or DW
both suck.
Really bad. Inaccessible, poor usability, a pain to update,
and bloated
scripts.
The specific problem is that the FW menu uses layers. Meaning
that it
specifically positions the menus on the screen relative to
the FW file...not
your DW file, which may have moved the contents around the
page.
Best solution? Don't use these crappy menus. Here are some
better options:

Help inserting Fireworks pop-up menu into Dreamweaver
I wonder if anyone can help me with pop-up menu insertion
process. I create the menu in Fireworks and export it to
Dreamweaver. I place the menu in a fresh test document and it works
perfectly every time, but when I go through the exact same series
of steps in my real page, I get a broken image icon. I just can't
understand why the path is fine one way, yet gets lost in the
shuffle the other way. The only two differences I can think of are
where in the site folder the test page is saved, as opposed to
where the real (archive) page is stored, and the fact that the
archive page already has rows and columns and cells, where the
fresh test page has just one basic table and nothing else at all. I
even tried manipulating the code directly to make the sections in
question identical, and even that doesn't do it. As far as I could
see, my actual working site page (which won't accept the insertion)
had one extra bit of code, namely
<td colspan="4"
Everything else seems to be the same.
I am losing my sanity over this!Would it be too late to direct you to another menu approach
altogether? The
FW pop-up menus are not the sharpest knife in the drawer -

Keeping nav bars highlighted while using Pop-up menus

Fireworks pop-up menu question
when i use fireworks mx to create pop-up menus, the second level menus don't show on the iphone
when i use cs5 and export as external css, the second levels do appear on the iphone but i'm having a different problem - i'm centering the main image but the submenus don't follow to the trigger point they stay put, on the left of where they should beThe FW pop up menus are - quite possibly - the worst thing to use for a production-level site. And this is coming from a guy who LOVES Fireworks.
They code is bloated, difficult to customize outside of FW and no longer supported by Dreamweaver. Avoid them for anything but prototyping.
The other point worth raising though, is the usability of the site on a smart phone. You may want ot reconsider how the site is navigated when users are on a small-screen device, just for usability's sake, if nothing else. Always remember, big clumsy fingers have to tap the right menu item and if you have navigation with pop up sub-menus, that may be difficult. If you're relying on the user to pinch and zoom (like my stupid bank does) then you will frustrate the user, or possibly even give themt he impression that the company doens't understand mobile browsing.
Consider simplyfiying your navigation to larger, easy to tap buttons. Create style sheets that optimize the screen space for different screen sizes. If you're new to this, it will take some trial and error, but Dreamweaver offers several features to make it easier to design for multiple screen sizes, such as jQuery Mobile templates, and multi-screen preview.
And last - but not least - remember that FW is a GRAPHICS program, with some html capabilities, not a web authoring environment. Just as you don't expect to do complex imaging in Dreamweaver, you should not rely on Fireworks to do any complicated HTML/CSS web site authoring.

What is a good extenstion for pop up menus?
I recently created a site in Fireworks that used pop up menus
but then found out later that they don't work on Internet Explorer
(you can view the site at www.caspre.com it is the very last menu
item at the end called "about cascade"). What I need to know is if
there is a good extension for dreamweaver (or fireworks) that won't
cause problems in ie. It should be noted that the pop up menu works
great in Firefox."Paevo Kelley" <[email protected]> wrote in

Hi,
Is there a way to create 2 pop up menus to work together?
For instance I want the first one to pick a category, for
example: autos and then the second menu to specify a location from
a list, for example : Cincinnati. Then it would go to a page set
for Cincinnati Autos.Nope. And as far as popup menus go, you are much better off
giving the
Fireworks ones a pass. There are much better ways to do
them....

A web page with Fireworks 8 Javascript (not CSS) pop-up menus
imported into Dreamweaver 8 works fine on its own. However, if I
include the page in a frameset, the menus
appear to work OK (e.g. everything pops up and down when
expected, all the rollover transitions appear flawless, and the
pop-ups are well clear of the frame boundary), but when a popped up
menu item is selected,
nothing happens - the top-level menu items are the only ones
which still navigate to their links.
(I normally avoid using framesets, but the frameset in this
instance has a useful applications function and I would be loth to
remove it)Hi Max:
Did you define a target for your pop-up menu links? See:
http://www.adobe.com/devnet/studio/articles/fwmx_popup03.html
Also make sure that the paths in the links are valid URLs.
It would seem strange that nothing is happening. How do the
menus work
when you browse the Fireworks HTML directly outside the
frameset? This
might give us a clue as to what's happening.

How to use Russian Language in Pop-Up menus
I am trying to generate a Russian Translation of a pop-up
menu using the Arial font. Both graphic and html body work fine but
the Javascript Pop-Ups generated from Fireworks produces a string
of Question Marks.
Can anyone advise me how to have Russian characters work in
the Pop-Up menus?Hi!
1. Get the Russian language package for ECC 6.0
2. Run se38->RSCPINST (Note 42305 - RSCPINST (I18N configuration tool), add language RU and press Simulate
3. Check the log - whether or not Russian locale is installed on your server's operation system. If not - install and configure it
4. add/change required instance profile parameters (transaction RZ10). Language key for Russian is R.
5. Restart application server.
6. Run se38->RSCPINST and press Activate. Check the log.
7. Run transaction SMLT. Add RU language and choose supplemented language. Supplemented language can be selected once!
8. Run import of the RU language (follow the instructions from the help.sap.com)
9. Once the import is finished, check log, if everything is OK run Supplementation.
10. After importing of the RU language, you must also import the language data in the Support Packages it you installed them before language.
11. Use the Russian language by mention RU in a sapgui field when login
Hope it will help. Please ask if something is not clear enough.
If useful please reward points.

How to change the presets in pop-up menus (CS6 or CR 7, example Photo Filter) with arrow keys an see at the same time the changes on the photo?
It worked under Windows, now I use OS 10.8 and have to apply a preset with a click or Return button but after that the pop-up menu close so I have to open it once again to change a preset. Please help. Thank you!The filter panel is a shortcut for the content panel and it only effects the content of that window. So if you have a folder it will only see this as a folder and not with its content. (a Stack behaves about the same, being different in only counting the first file in the filter panel criteria but not what is in the stack itself)
You have a view work arounds, first is use menu view / show items from subfolders (this can take some time especially if you have not used caching before on this content) and this builds visible thumbs for all content and that can be used for filtering.
Or use the find command (Edit / find) and inhere specify the source and fill in the criteria include subfolders and this will give you the correct result.
When you create a smart collection the find command also pops up given you the same opportunity to get the results in a collection, but since a collection is only a bunch of aliases referring to the originals you might be a bit careful with editing and deleting. -
How do I have Blu-Ray pop up menus linked together if I'm using multiple timelines?
I have a 6 timeline project that I put in pop up menus for. Each timeline asks for it's own pop up menu to use. The pop up menus seemed to need to be created with the multiple chapter option to work for me, I couldn't create stand alones and link them together because the timeline asks for ONE pop up menu associated with it. I then created 6 separate pop up menus (each one ended up with about 3 pages) one for each timeline. I tried to link POP UP MENU1 to POP UP MENU2 with a NEXT button at the end of the last page of POP UP MENU1. When I drag the whip to link it to the proper pop up menu when I actually look at the button the link is the current pop up menu not the one I want it linked to, so I am unable to do this. The pop up menus function properly on my Blu-Ray player- If I am viewing material from timeline 1, I can pull up POP UP MENU1 and arrow back and forth to the three pages on this, POP UP MENU2 functions the same way for timeline 2. etc.
Project Settings:
Blue Ray
720 X 480
EncoreCS5
Quad 4
2.4 GHZ speed
150 GB free space on drive
NVIDIA GEFORCE 8500 card
6 GB RamFirst of all, the pop up menus can not be linked to each other.
If you want, you can have more pages on a single pop up menu and link all your timelines or chapters to the buttons of the pages and then link that pop up menu with more number of pages to all of the timelines. In this way, you can have the option to navigate to any chapter of any timeline while any timeline is playling.
Thanks,
Ramesh. -
Working with pop up menus in Dreamweaver CS4
this is my first time working with pop up menus in CS4 (have built many in previous versions), Adobe says you cannot create the pop up menus due to the new Spry feature - but that you can alter existing menus using the Behaviours panel
I have just launched a new website using pop up menus - and there is a glitch when viewing the rollover/pop up menus: I see a question mark to the left of each image in the menu (the images themselves are working beautifully), does anyone know why?
view the website here:
http://www.kiwihouse.org.nz
I want to keep the pop up menu so am looking for a solution to eliminate the floating question mark
does it have anything to do with the multiple javascripts on each page?.. I have one for the menus, and one for the multiple fadeshow
any advice or suggestions would be greatly appreciated
dQNot sure if this is the problem, don't have time to go through all your code - but putting the page through the validator bought up a lot of errors...
http://validator.w3.org/check?verbose=1&uri=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.kiwihouse.org.nz%2F
Look at the 3rd error message - it's to do with the way the script link has been written.
Lots of other errors that need fixing as well.
On another note, these pop up menus are not the best way to create menus these days, that's why the pop up menu feature was removed from the latest DW version.

I know, I know Murray, you said these don't work in the past,
however, I made a template with a pop up / drop down (however you
like to call it) menu and so far it seems to work just fine. Am I
delusional ? Headed for a huge fall later on when I discover X
dosn't work with this feature ? Or does it really work now ?
I do know that pop up menus don't work with library items
still but the templates seem to be ok. Any experience for this
anyone ?
Cheers

Yes.

Yes. Rename or move a linked page. Add a new menu button to
the page.

items
Actually, that's wrong too. They work just fine with Library
items -
