Fireworks drop down menu problem in explorer 7 help

I created a fireworks drop down menu for my website which
usually shows the 'up' label, in this case January, February etc
once activated, but now this only shows when the mouse moves over
it and then the 'down' state shows correctly. Has anyone
experienced this problem and if so can you offer a solution? The
drop down is at
http://www.laserbattlefield.co.uk/index.html
and its the photo gallery label which has the drop down.
Thanks.

Debbie
Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
when I attempt to use these programs, and I choose a drop down menu from the top title bar, a lot of the options on the menus are in gray, and they do not work. Does this mean the only give you the preview of the program?
No Debbie you have the full version. However, if these options and commands are not available (are gray) then it means that the objects the operate on are not selected. So, in iPhoto for instance, under the File menu, I cannot ‘Edit a Smart Album’ unless I have selected a Smart Album first. I cannot create an Event unless I have selected a photo to make that Event with, and so on.

Drop down menu problem IE7

I have a small problem, don't know if you can help at all. I have have upgraded to the latest version of spry and created my spry menu in Dreamweaver CS3. It works great in firefox, but in IE7 the drop down menu jumps up to the top of the browser window, instead of below the menu bar.
When I check using the browser compatibility function in CS3, I get a message "Expanding Box Problem" with the following lines of code highlighted:
<ul>
          <li><a href="testimonials extra.html">Extra</a></li>
          <li><a href="testimonials defender.html">Defender II</a></li>
        </ul>
Here is link to the site, so you can take a look

Any ideas or help would be greatly appreciated ?
regards,
Bill

Serial resourse name drop down menu problem in built versions of software.

Hi,
I have developed Labview programs to test new PCBs as they come off the production line, by stimulating the PCBs via RS232 serial. These programs work well on my development PC, and have been built as appilcations with installer ready to be transferred to the test PC, so our production department can use them. The problem is that when I install the built applications onto the production PC, the serial resource name selection drop down menu is grayed out and disabled. This stops anyone from being able to select the correct serial port.
I am using Labview 6.1, Windows XP.
Regards,
Wardo.

My first guess is that you have not installed VISA on the target machine.
See the link below: -
http://search.ni.com/nisearch/nisearchservlet?nistype=default&ddown=2&filter=%2Btaxonomy:%22Drivers+And+Updates%22&q=visa+windows
My second is that there is no serial port.

CSS Drop Down Menu Problem (only in IE)

Hi Folks,
I have just added a new drop down menu and it seems to work perfectly in every other browser except IE.
In IE the cursor makes the next menu item along drop down and not the one that's hovered over.
I have removed the jquery script and the same problem occurs, so I reckon it must be a CSS problem. Here's the CSS code in case anyone has any ideas what the problem is.
Any suggestions would be hugely appreciated cos I can't figure it out .
Cheers
Dave

I think that is fine but it did get converted to a smiley face you are right. This is how it looks
#topmenu #nav, #nav ul{
font-size:10.5px;
font-weight:bold;
margin:0;
list-style-type:none;
list-style-position:outside;
position:relative;
line-height:35px;
background-color:#006699;
width:100%;
text-align:left;
it's all on a local set up right non but I will try to pop it up and post a link.
The symptoms are easy to describe though. When you hover over a top level menu item, the list drops down under the link directly to the right.The positioning isn't random, it is exactly in line, just under the wrong heading.
In every other browser it seems to be fine.

[JS][CS3] Drop down menu problem

Hi
I am trying to use a drop down menu inone of my dialogs. The emnu is showing, but i cannot select it.
myDialog = new Window ('dialog', 'Name',[50,50,350,370]);
myDialog.frameLocation = [300,200];
var myListItems = ["One","Two","Three"];
var myList = myDialog.add('dropdownlist',undefined,myListItems);
myList.selection = 1;
myList.bounds = [20,200,100,20];
myDialog.show();
Any ideas where I cam going wrong?
It seems to be when I am entering the bounds of the list, but I do need to place this list carefully.

Thanks for the plug...
I was really trying hard not to advertise, but rather to advocate the correct way to use ScriptUI.
However once it was brought up let me just say a word. Most apps that automatically create dialogs will use co-ordinates and bounds, overriding the default layout manager. In that Rapid ScriptUI is different, since it shows you how to manipulate position of elements without using layout manager.
The $2 script, while still existing, is a really old version of the library, however the professional version is extremely capable and outputs code which is really easy to understand and edit if necessary.
I did not realize that some countries don't allow paypal. But if its an issue, contact me via prvt or contact page on scriptui.com and we could try to work something out.

Selection Box and some repeats in drop down menu problems, please help

Hello,
I'm not quite sure what i have managed to turn on but everytime i click anything on my mac it gets a black box around it... I have no idea how to turn it off... can someone help me?
Also my restart, Log out and Shut down seem to be repeating themselves in my apple drop down menu... is the normal? I don't remember it before. I'm working on a Mac Pro using Mac OS X 10.4.7.
Any help would be much appreciated.

Ahh thank you so much!
I don't know how I managed it but it was really annoying me and now its gone. Wonderful.
Thank you again.

Drop Down Menu Problem

I followed the instructions on cssmenumaker.com, made my menu, downloaded, FTP'd menu folder to site root, placed code in a HTML snippet & published.
Menu displays on the page, and works, until you actually click a link. The associated page loads in the snippet frame, (unless the link is designated to load in a new window.)
To be safe, the menu was placed on one page only, a test scratch page that is sort of hidden in the site.
Here's the link to it. http://www.realtyphotosnw.com/SCRATCH.html
I'm a shooter, not a coder. Just doing the menu was foreign to me. I have too many pages now to not use a drop down menu. Ideally, I need to make changes to the site and hopefully click to publish without having to manually re-code a page each time it gets a change. Maybe that's wishful thinking, but that's the goal.
Any help or recommendations are greatly appreciated. Thank You in advance.
Chris

Bonjour
In the code, replace
target="_self"
by

Drop Down menu problem/hyperlink

In the attached file, I cannot get the links on the drop down menu to work (schools, contact us, etc.) I need them to hyperlink to other pages.
Any help is appreciated.

The dropdown links have arrow src refereneces but the last link 'Geom Prod Specifications' doesn't but the arrow is still showing.
My guess is that the right arrow is hard coded to appear when a child menu is linked to a submenu item.
Why do you have an arrow on submenu items which don't have child menus linked to them?

Drop down menu problem in iPhoto

Hi, I am new to your forum but I have a question that has been driving me nuts. I bought my first Apple computer last Sept. 8, 2008 after a long time in saving for it. Anyway, I was told that iLife came with it which also included iPhoto, iDVD, Garage Band and a few others.
Now, when I attempt to use these programs, and I choose a drop down menu from the top title bar, a lot of the options on the menus are in gray, and they do not work. Does this mean the only give you the preview of the program? You can then decide later if you want the full version? Is that how this works? If so, can you tell me how to get the full version.
Thank you for all your help.
Sincerely,
Debbie Cummings

Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
when I attempt to use these programs, and I choose a drop down menu from the top title bar, a lot of the options on the menus are in gray, and they do not work. Does this mean the only give you the preview of the program?
No Debbie you have the full version. However, if these options and commands are not available (are gray) then it means that the objects the operate on are not selected. So, in iPhoto for instance, under the File menu, I cannot ‘Edit a Smart Album’ unless I have selected a Smart Album first. I cannot create an Event unless I have selected a photo to make that Event with, and so on.

I've almost got a global drop down menu working but I need help!!

I've got a drop down menu working that is in my "Sites" folder in MobileMe and can be linked to individual pages on my site with an html widget. This way I only have to change one file when I need to edit my navigation menu. It works fine as a footer as you can see here: http://web.me.com/phelpssculpture/Site/home_2.html
The problem is I can't figure out how to use it as a header because the Widget box has to be big enough for the menus to drop in or they get cut off, but if it overlaps the page content as it does on the top of the page it blocks the content.
Is it possible to make this transparent so the content shows through?
Any help would be greatly appreciated, if we can figure this out it will be a breakthrough for having an effective navigation bar and a great timesaver for editing.
Sincerely, David

with an html widget.
you can not achieve the result with html snippet widget, because you have no control over it.
... if we can figure this out it will be a breakthrough for having an effective navigation bar and a great timesaver for editing.
it can be done and it's a known debate between me and other whose like to hide iweb navbar and build their own text based navbar, here was my argument: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=8136472&#8136472
that said, it can be done when you have control over iweb, here are examples:
http://home.cyclosaurus.com/CyclosaurusBlog/Entries/2009/8/11Pieces_of3.html (note the drop down menu overlap other elements).
http://home.cyclosaurus.com/CyclosaurusBlog/Entries/2009/9/10iWeb_NavBarWidget.html
the examples were done with my widgets, so give apple feedback and ask for tools to build widgets and take controls: http://www.apple.com/feedback/iweb.html

The Print function no longer seems to work in Firefox 6. When typing "Control P" or selecting Print from the file menu nothing happens. No error message, no drop down menu, nothing to select. Help!?

I can't print, print preview, nothing. I have several printers associated with this computer, including an HP, and PDF creator - none of these appear in a drop down menu, there is no error message, yet these all function fine if I am not on the internet!

No errors in error console. No effect using *. I tried using the dns name of my localhost both in the Firefox URL and in the javascript and I get exactly the same. I have spent a huge amount of time looking into this issue.
One thing I noticed is that if I use the examples on the internet (http://arunranga.com/examples/access-control/preflightInvocation.html or http://saltybeagle.com/cors/) they work in the same browser. These examples however, are accessed through HTTP proxies.
I am wondering if the issue has to do with using the same hostname just with different ports.

DW Pop-Up / Drop-Down Menu Problems

Hi. I am new to this forum and I am not a pro web designer
(but am proficient with web / graphic design software), so bear
with me...
I am using Dreamweaver MX and Fireworks MX (not the 2004
versions) to re-design a new website for my photography biz (I am,
of course, using PhotoShop for some graphics/images too).
I want to use a horizontal navigation bar (with 9 buttons)
and drop-down menus on the new site.
My first attempt was to design the nav bar in FW and export
it into DW (preferably into a Template). The nav bar design (w/
drop-down menus) in FW was simple. Exporting was also simple.
However, I experienced major problems when inserting the "piece"
into a FW document (I use "tables" and not "frames"; no CSS nor
Flash).
Once the nav bar is inserted into a DW table, it doesn't work
in the Browser (latest version of Safari; I use a Mac PowerBook).
Some times, it did work, but most others, it did not. FRUSTRATING.
I then decided to simply design the nav bar "buttons" in FW
(with simple roll-over to change text color / size on each button)
and realized that DW can also do Drop-Down / Pop-Up menus. This was
successful at first, but now when I try to insert numerous buttons
into a DW document (multi-row and column table), I get the same
result in that the d-d menus do not work when viewing in the
browser (but the roll-over text effect does work). STILL
FRUSTRATING.
I have also tried to save the nav bar / buttons as Library
Items, but to no avail. This is rather important should I decide to
one day change the navigation on the site (it will have over 25
pages to start with).
I have been on the Adobe site and have read numerous tech
reports to try and solve this. I have also come across a few notes
on this forum, so decided to give it a shot. Quite simply:
1. Am I wasting my time using an older version of DW and FW
(even though I have no interest in using fancy Flash stuff and have
no interest in being a pro web designer; I do want to do my own
site and maintain it though...). Should I upgrade to Version 8 of
the suite?
2. I see that some third-party software is available to do
Drop-Down menus. Should I take this route? Will these extensions
work in the older version of DW?
3. My nav bar will be relatively simple, both in appearance
and functionality. So, I do not need any extravagant type of
software. Can anyone recommend something for me?
4. The following link is the only attempt that I had at
getting the nav bar to operate both locally on my browser and
uploaded on to my host server. I am not 100% happy with the
appearance, but when I went to change it, I had the same problems
detailed above (i.e., it didn't work). This example was done with
FW into DW. It was simply a test (to see if uploading the page on
to the server would get the drop-downs to work), so none of the
links have been inserted into the menu selection tabs.

Thanks for your help. Sorry about the long message, but I
wanted to include enough detail such that you wouldn't have to come
back to me for numerous questions...

Depending on your expertise level, DMX may be all you you
need. But where
you are wasting your time is by fiddling with these awful
pop-up menus.
Those who understand them left them behind when they were
first introduced.

Yes, and yes, and don't think twice about doing it! Use the
PVII methods or
commercial products. They are what you need.

If really simple, check even the MiniMenus from

IE drop down menu problems

I am currently redesigning a website for the company I work
in-house for and am having IE problems.
The site includes both a Accordion Spry and a Spry menu.
Which look and function as they should in all other browsers except
IE (but of coarse). What happens is when the site is viewed in IE
the drop down links have space between them and a gray border
around the drop down. Also for some strange reason the word "false"
apaers in the background of the drop down.
Which I can only conclude is from the imported style sheet,
but I have no idea why. I have tried removing the spry menu and
create the menu in css but still no luck.
If any one can help it will be appreciated.
Thank you
The test site is at:
http://www.leaf-financial.com/newsite/index.html

Hello,
The problem for the false is a known bug we have for the Spry
Menu in a solution for another IE bug. You'll have to go in your
CSS and look for this class "ul.MenuBarVertical iframe". Inside you
should add the following line:
filter:alpha(opacity:0.1);
and that element behind the menu will disappear. I am not yet
sure why you have the other problem with the menu spacing but I
will try to investigate later.
