Highlighted menu button per page

How do I set the menu button for the currently open page
highlighted in dreamweaver?
My code is like this:
<ul id="navigation" class="navIR">
<li id="nav-home"><a href="../"
class="current">Home</a></li>
<li id="nav-about-us"><a
href="../about.php">About
Us</a></li>
<li id="nav-contact-us"><a
href="../contact.php">Contact Us</a></li>
</ul>
As you can see right now the home page has class="current".
But using templates, how do I get this to apply to the others when
those pages are open?

Heres a tutorial:

How to highlight menu button

I am trying to figure out how to highlight the menu play button so when being used on a TV you can tell that your on the button.
Thanks

Hi:
You said you did add some buttons, then you must have some shape or text assigned to that button. Right? Select one of those buttons and in the button properties, in the Style tab, check you have a color (i.e yellow) in Selected Highlight property and the Opacity slide shows something more than zero. Try with that slider to max (15).
If you have a text assigned to that button cjheck in the same tab your Include Text in Highlight checkbox is selected.

Linking menu buttons to pages for an Android app

Hi all. Ok im a bit of a rookie when it comes to flash but here is my dilema. I want to link a button on my main page, to another page with info on it.
For example: my main page has the buttons" PS3"... "Xbox 360"...."P.C" I want each of these buttons to link to an alphabetical list, ie: A-Z. And id like to be able to do this without the need for an internet connection. I have tried googling it but i could not find an answer to this. If anyone has any suggestions it would be great.

You'll need to be sure to include stop() commands in each scene. I recommend you just get away from using scenes at all... they are problematic when you try to mox them with navigation. Just place your pages in different frames of the same timelines or just have them as movieclips that you control them being shown (or a little of both).
AS far as the flickering from scene to scene goes, that's most often an indication that you have coding errors. Do you get any kind of coding error messages?
This is a weak spot for me because I have not developed apps for mobile devices. Because support for developing apps is a recent feature of Flash, I think that you can't use AS2 to do that. The on(release) code you say you are using is AS2. I have to believe that you need to use AS3 to be programming for an app, though I might be entirely wrong in thinking that.

Muse page content "jumps" when using menu button

I Created a simple portfolio website in Adobe Muse. Two pages (projects and contact) and for both using the same underlaying stramien page (don't know the English word for that). I added a menu widget to navigate between the two pages. Works fine, but whenever I use the menu button the page content (text and/or pictures) make a little vertical jump before they are in their right position. Obviously this little "jump" is not like it is supposed to be. The website is not yet published or online, cause it's not finished yet, but the problem occurs when I preview what I've made so far.
What could be the cause of this problem and how can I repair it ??

are you using Chrome?
try loading my page, www.stacystechpubs.com using Chrome.
Then you see a bar of menu items across the page (home, who am I, terms,...) try clicking on one, then the next one, then the next one. You'll see the box 'Stacy's Tech Publications' jumps when you click on a link.
If you still aren't sure what I mean I need to take a screen capture video and upload it.

When I click on the "menu" button in the boxes on my MSN home page, nothing happens.

my.msn.com home page has multiple boxs (stock quotes, MSNBC stories, weather, etc.) that can be customized by clicking on a "menu" button in each box, or closed by clicking on an "x" in each box. When I move my mouse over these button, they are highlighted but when I click, nothing happens.

Won't open homepage on open, won't open web pages from the menu 'open new window', Can't open menu button

Ok, since update to version 31.0, I have been having some problems.
I have tried doing everything stated in the support page about resetting, reinstalling, safe mode, restarting pc etc.
First problem, when I open Firefox no web page loads. It just says New Tab and a blank white page. If I press the home button I am taken to my homepage which is google.
Second problem, when I right click on a link and the menu pops up, if I click open in new window, a new window opens but it just says New Tab with a blank page and no URL information, just blank.
Third problem, the Open Menu button just doesn't work at all. You can click all you like, that thing is not opening.
I am really stuck as to what to do. I have only been using Firefox for about a month and t was good until these problems. If I can't resolve it, I will have to use another browser as it is really annoying.
I am using Windows 8.1 by the way and have scanned my computer thouroughly for both virus's and malware.

Hi zenithtwc, to test whether this is a settings issue, could you do a three-minute experiment?
'''Create a new Firefox profile'''
A new profile will have your system-installed plugins (e.g., Flash) and extensions (e.g., security suite toolbars), but no themes, other extensions, or other customizations. It also should have completely fresh settings databases and a fresh cache folder.
Exit Firefox and start up in the Profile Manager using Start > search box (or Run):
firefox.exe -P
''Don't delete anything here.'' Any time you want to switch profiles, exit Firefox and return to this dialog.
Click the Create Profile button, assign a name like Test731, and skip the option to change the folder location. Then start Firefox in the new profile you created.
Can it reach the internet?
When returning to the Profile Manager, you might be tempted to use the Delete Profile button. But... it's a bit too easy to accidentally delete your "real" profile, so I recommend resisting the temptation. If you do want to clean up later, I suggest making a backup of all your profiles first in case something were to go wrong.

NEXT button on report portlet shows 10 rows-maximum rows per page=9999

I created a report with the DB Provider portlet. I set the maximum rows per page to 9999 when displayed as a portlet and as a full page. I put the portlet on a page and it only shows 10 rows and then the next button.
If there are exactly 10 rows I get the next button. If I click it the next page loads with no data. If there are less than 10 rows there is no button.
If I create a new portlet it does not do this. I'm only having the problem with one portlet now but I've seen it in the past. I usually just build the portlet again but I would like to know how to fix it.
I can't customize the portlet because of bug #3467032.

Select customize and set the number of rows to 9999. I'm guessing that it's currently set to 10.

Browser menu button quit, wont load pages

after cleaning history n cookies hoping to speed up my Q10, the browser will open but right menu button wont pop up and the left button for history and other browser windows wont pop up either. Did a back up and restored and still doesnt work. only can get it to open and particially works through links in old texts or bbms and then left button will work again. How do i fix this, need access to the browser daily for work!

I am having the EXACT same problem. At first I thought my network had slowed down, and I was ready to switch to Cable from DSL to speed things up, but then I noticed that when I bring my work portable home and work on the same network, I don't have any problem--although it uses the same network. It's a Dell portable that uses Windows and I get the same speeeds I have gotten until recently on my Apple computers. I switched to Apple and bought a new computer for my daughter last year and one for myself this year to avoid the security problems with Windows XP, but now my service is so slow that even dial-up would be speedier and half of the time the page loads don't work at all. WHat's up with this? I tried Firefox, but it's really not much better after the first day.

Menu Buttons Change Image instead of Highlighting?

Does anyone know how to/or if it's possible to make a DVD menu in Photoshop for Encore where, when the menu button is highlighted it actually changes image instead of making it a solid highlighted colour?
For example...
In a DVD i'm making, I have Cartoon images that are the menu buttons. I would like to make it so that when you select it on your dvd player it makes the eyes open up wider and mouths of the characters open up. I have made the duplicate layers and changed one to have the open eyes and mouth and placed it directly ontop of the other and put both layers in the one group with the (+) to allow Encore to recognize it. But all I get is the top layer of the two turning to a top colour. I know that using prefixes like (=1) makes it highlighted and that is why it's highlighting but I don't know what else to suggest. I've looked at the prefixes on the Encore help on this site and tried to work it out but no luck
I know this is due to my lack of knowledge and really need some help to fix it, or know if it's even possible (I assume tht using such great products as Adobe it will be)
Thanx

Welcome to the forum.
This is easily done by doing dupe Menus for each Button. The Button on the original Menu will be set to Auto-Activate, and be linked to the dupe Menu with the different graphic. I would probably turn OFF Sub-picture Highlights.
The trick is to do a layout, and also name your Menus (especially the dupes), to reflect exactly what they do. I use Illustrator for my layout, but pencil and paper work well too.
Note: if run on a computer, the user will need to Dbl-click the Button, as Auto-Activate only works seamlessly from a DVD set-top player.
There are several other posts on this forum (a few very recent), where I go into much more detail. Also, Jeff Bellune's excellent book, The Focal Easy Guide to Adobe EncoreDVD 2.0, by Focal Press, has excellent, easy to follow steps for doing this. Though written for EncoreDVD 2.0, 100% of the book will apply to CS3 & CS4.
Good luck,

IDVD 6: Menu Buttons Highlight Incorrectly

I've been trying to take two podcasts and burn them to a DVD. Initially I tried starting directly with iDVD 6, but it wouldn't encode the second podcast. I then started with iMovie to encode the clips before I added them to iDVD. The podcasts are widescreen, so I selected a theme that would also be widescreen.
For the first DVD I burned, my widescreen portable DVD player interpreted the main menu as 4:3, cutting off some of the text of the menu options. I tried playing the DVD on a computer (not sure if it was in Windows or on the Mac), and although the menus were displayed as 16:9, the highlighting of the buttons is way off the actual buttons. Another computer's DVD player application highlighted the buttons correctly.
After reading some of the tips involving myDVDEdit, I copied the burned image files to a folder, changed the files to read and write, and changed the settings on the menus to the most flexible 16:9 option (auto Pan & Scan and Letterbox). When I burned a DVD with these changes, the widescreen portable DVD player would display the DVD with black bars all around (but without cutting anything off). On a computer, the button highlighting still does not match the actual location of the buttons.
Are there any other settings that I can adjust to (1) fill the entire screen on my portable DVD player and (2) align the button highlighting to the actual buttons? Thanks in advance.

The -34506 error. Welcome to a world of frustration and wasted evenings. There are plenty of threads here with suggestions on 'rules' for setting up your slideshows in iMovie, clearing caches, creating new users etc. These have fixed this particular error for some people.
Good luck!
Simon

Code errors could explain the problem. You're missing a closing </div> tag for container.

Adding pages without adding menu buttons.

I've built a website with iweb: www.freedin.org. I want to add pages, underneath pages, that already exist, because I don't want a new menu button for each page I put up.
Is there a way to layer the pages, like the layers of an onion, so that if you went to Din's Unfair Trial menu page, you could click on pages below, all living under the same menu button?
Panther

In iWeb, go to a page you don't want to appear in the navbar (the menu). Click on the inspector button (the blue circle with an i). Click on the page icon, and uncheck the "Include page in Navigation Menu."
On the page you want to be the "master" page for that section, add links for the pages that don't appear in the Navigtion Menu. Links are also created from the inspecto. Select the text or picture you want to be a link; click on the inspector, then click on the blue circle with the arrow. Check "Enable as Hyperlink" and select the appropriate choices from the drop-down menu.

Displaying Specified Report Rows per Page, w/ "Next" & "Previous" Buttons

I have a report on my page, and what I am trying to do SHOULD be very simple, but the options provided and their explanations within the HTML DB application are ambiguous.
All I want to do is have my report display 50 records per page, and have buttons that will allow the user to go to the "Next" or "Previous" page of 50 results.

Dreamweaver CS5.5 Template - Main menu button not going to correct page link

Hi,
Please help me, as i am new to Adobe Dreamweaver.
I created a website in Dreamweaver CS3, then recently changed to CS5.5, firstly i couldn't get the templates to update, but by playing around i managed to get the template up update all the pages. #
I am now having problems when i click on the link in the website, it seems to be looking in the templates folder for the html page.
Website addrerss: www.malegroominglounge.co.uk
Pages that i am having problems with when i click in the menu buttons : Male Waxing, Contact Us & Find us,
This is sometimes working but most of the time comes up with: 'Page cannot be found' and when looking at the URL it is e.g http://www.malegroominglounge.co.uk/Templates/malewaxing.html
Why is it looking at the templates folder?
I have checked the template file in menu url and it has not got an extension to look in the 'templates' folder.
Could someone please help?

Hi
Thanks for your investigation.
Yes i can now see on the source that it is using the templates folder e.g (www.malegroominglounge.co.uk/templates/findus.html), but when I go into dreamweaver template, the code i see is:
<div id="sidebar1">
 <ul id="MenuBar1" class="MenuBarVertical">
 <li><a href="index.html" class=" style1 style21">Home</a> </li>
 <li><a href="aboutus.html" class="style35">About Us</a></li>
 <li><a href="malewaxing.html" class="style35">Male Waxing</a> </li>
 <li><a href="malemassage.html" class="style35">Male Massage</a></li>
 <li><a href="manicure&pedicure.html" class="style35">Male Manicure & Pedicure</a></li>
 <li><a href="facials.html" class="style35">Male Facials</a></li>
 <li><a href="feedback.html" class="style35">Contact Us</a></li>
 <li><a href="findus.html" class="style35">Find Us</a></li>
 
 <li><img src="holisticguild300.jpg" width="130" height="46" hspace="3" /></li>
 </ul>
So not sure what i'm doing wrong.
Can I just check that the 'Don't rewrite relative document paths' check box should be unticked (this is found in DW CS5.5 - Site - Manage Site - Edit - Advanced Settings - Templates)
Any help much appreciated
Cheers

Menu button highlight order with dvd remote

Hi I am using DVD studio pro 4 on a mac book pro.
When I simulate my project and use the dvd remote to naviagate from menu to menu I have noticed that some menus start with the first button highlighted and some with different buttons highlighted.
I have used target menu to link them together rather than link the menu to the exact menu/button1. Ideally I want each menu to start with the first button highlighted and ready to go, but I don't know how dvd sp sets the order and how I can fix this without relinking.
Many thanks for your help

Hi
Check in Inspector Menu Properties the Default Button setting. That must be the button highlighted by default when you open a menu. Try simulating just the menu and check what button you get highlighted by default.
Be aware that when creating connections you can jump to a apecific menu button. You could by mistake be connecting that way.
Hope that helps !
Alberto
