How do I make my form (list/menu) items open in the same window (self).

Hello, the kind, brilliant people on this forum have always been able to help me in the past, so I thought I'd give it a try today. Items in a form (list/menu) that I've created are opening in a blank window (pop-up) when clicked. I would like them to open in "self" mode so that pop up blockers on various computers don't become a challenge for site visitors. Can anyone please tell me how I could make that adjustment? I selected the entire form "red dotted line" around the list and changed the "target" in the properties menu to "self". Then I selected everything on the page and still not correct. I am inserting the code below. Any assistance to get me on the right track would be GREATLY appreciated!! BTW I also made the form a library item (just in case that fact is needed). Also if you need to see the actual link it is http://www.graphicmechanic.com/DEKALBCOUNTY/index.html. The "I WANT TO" list is the part I'm referring to.
CODE BELOW:
<form action="" method="post" name="form1" target="_self" class="style26" id="form1">
                   <a href="#" target="_self"><span class="style26">
                   <label FOR="iwantto">I WANT TO:</label>

Looks like it still isn't working. When I removed those items the drop down menu stopped working as well. I went ahead and posted yours as the correct answer. I'm convinced it's my skill level. i'm gonna do some javascript searches to see where the js code should go, it's very confusing to me. Here is that code in case anything sticks out to you or anyone else.

  • Multiple drop down menu items to populate the same separate text box. How can I do it?

    In Acrobat Pro X, I've figured out how to create a drop down menu with items that will populate a separate text box, but how can I get multiple menu items to populate the same text box. For example. My drop down menu has three items  cat, dog, mouse. I choose cat and it appears in my separate text box (hooray). Next, I choose 'dog' from the same menu. I would like it to appear in the same text box along with my previous selection 'cat.' Is this possible? I'm very new to Java Script, any assistance would be greatly appreciated! Thank you

    She is the script I'm using
    (function () {
        // Do nothing if not committed
        if (event.willCommit) return;
        // Set up an array to hold the individual paragraphs of text
        var aQuotes = [3];
        // Populate the array with the paragraph text
        aQuotes[0] = "cat"
        aQuotes[1] = "dog"
        aQuotes[2] = "mouse"
        // Get the selected item, which is the export value of the selected combo box item
        var item = event.changeEx
        // Display the text corresponding to the selected item in the text field
        getField("Text field 1").value = aQuotes[item];

  • I have two accounts to my computer as administrator. How can I make it so both accounts have access to the same folders and programs? grateful for answers. Martin

    I have two accounts to my computer as administrator. How can I make it so both accounts have access to the same folders and programs? grateful for answers. Martin

    Obvious question: If you want to have access to the same folders andapplications, why have two accounts? The point of different accounts is that you don't have access to the other person's data.
    Any application in the HD/Applications folder is available in all accounts.
    Sharing data between accounts depends on the material being shared. So, if you can provide more details we maybe able to help you better.

  • The link open in the same window - Label based menu

    Hi All,
    I'm using Xcelsius 2008.  I add a Selector Component "Selector complonenet > Label based menu". I setup 6 Lable and each one link to a URL. When clicking the label on the generated SWF report, the link opened in a new window.
    So i'd like to know if the link can open in the same window (not pop-up a window and open in it)?I tried to setup it in properties, but it seems there is no way to do this.
    Could I get your guide how to do that? Thank you so much.

    Hello
    I would like to know one thing before answring the question how did you link with an url with the label based menu.
    Did you used the opendocument syntax or what did you used.
    Another method is why donf you use the URL button and map according to your requirement. place the url button on the menu item and change the properties to tranperancy to 0%.
    Thanks

  • How do you get a merged CHM to open in the same window as the master? (RH8)

    We have a problem where everytime you click on a topic from a merged CHM in the master TOC, it opens a new window exlusive to the chm where the topic resides.  We have more than one master chm and this is the only one that does it, it is also the only one that was created from RH8, although the others have been updated with RH8. We've compared the Window and SS Layout properties with a parent chm that doesn't behave this way and haven't been able to find any differences.  Is there something we can do to have all the topics whether merged or from the parent, open in the same window?

    I think somehow the last time I had this problem I stumbled on a solution and wasn't sure what fixed it, but the problem reared its head again, and it was back to the drawing board. Now I think we have a solution, but we don't know for sure what created the problem. Although we're pretty sure the problem has something to do with creating a new window when there is already and existing window.
    What we found. This problem couldn't be fixed in the SSLayout. We found that the Properties | Advanced | Window setting for individual topics in the TOC had been erased. This Window drop-down selection lets you choose a window other than <Default> if more than one window exists. If not changed by the user, it should stay at <Default>, but somehow the setting was blank on several topics, probably due to the creation of a new window, and maybe some other values being changed. This is probably a bug in RH8, but I don't know about other versions.
    How to fix it.
    First you have to isolate which merged .chm file (child) has the problem, I believe I did this by removing one child .chm at a time from the Parent project and then seeing if the parent .chm worked correctly after generation.
    Once you've found the offending .chm (there may be more than one), open the project and the TOC for the .chm that is a problem.
    Go to the TOC pod > Topic Page Properties (right-click on a Topic in the TOC and select Properties) > Advanced > Options panel and ensure that a value exists in the Window: field. If the field is empty, you have a problem.  Click the drop-down and select <Default>, even if your .chm window displays in drop-down.
    I don't believe there's an option to set a window as the default when you create it, so if there's more than one window, who knows what the <Default> option is drawing from, unless <Default> points to the window you have selected in the SSLayout, which I think is the case.
    Find all Topics that have this problem and fix them.  Note: you cannot fix this by going to topic Properties in the Topic List (or from r-click Properties in a topic), you have to do it in the TOC.
    Save all changes, generate the child .chm, and then replace the old child .chm with the new one.
    Open the parent .chm and check to see if all topics open in the parent window. Your Done

  • How do I keep more than one safari page open at the same time?

    New to Mac.  I'm used to being able to have several applications open at the same time, and able to check emails, eBay, camera for downloading photos, etc., but when trying this on Mac, I can't seem to figure out how to swing from email to something else....oh, it opens up eBay and other pages, but not where I left it...I have to keep starting from the beginning...name, password, etc.   I can't have 3, 4 or 5 safari pages open at the same time??  This is making my life cumbersome, and running back to the basement office and using my dying Dell desktop where life was a bit simpler.  Sometimes I need to copy a few paragraphs on one website into another....and its taking me way too long to get this done.  I know there's a way of doing this on Mac....

    Hi Suzkas,
    I was new to mac a short time ago and I had frustrations in the learning curve especially as I was so used to working with PC.
    If you look at the top left of the screen you will see the words SAFARI next to the apple logo. if not then either open safari or click on the window and the mac will then show safari at the top. If you now click on FILE you can select NEW WINDOW or NEW TAB as you wish. I often use new tab and switch between them. If you go to VIEW and select CUSTOMISE TOOLBAR you can drag an icon to the top of the safari window and you won't have to keep going to the menu to add a new tab. I will sometimes select new window to keep something separate from my other work.
    If you close down a window you will often lose your place, but using the tab system you will leave the window active unless you select the cross to terminate. If you have a separate window open you can select the orange blob (between the red and green at the top) and the window will slide down to the dock and stay there, active, for you to return and continue.
    Hope this help, stay with it, go see the instore staff and pretty soon you wont look back
    PS I have PARALLELLS6 running with a copy of windows 7 on my mac. This means that I can switch to microsoft if I want to. However, with office for mac installed I rarely need to now, the only time I ever open windows is for an application that has no mac version.

  • How do I get IE 11 to open in the same window on the task bar?

    How do I get IE 11 to open in the same spot on my task bar.  i.e. IE 11 is on my task bar. When I open it, it opens in a new place on the end of the task bar.  Microsoft Outlook, Windows Explorer, Quicken, Adobe, etc,, all on the task bar open
    right at there location on the task bar; not in a new place at the end of the task bar.
    How do I get IE 11, Windows 7, 64 bit to open at the same place as the IE icon???
    Thanks

    Hi,
    Seems a strange issue, How about un-pin IE from the taskbar, then re-pin it to the taskbar for a test?
    If doesn't work, I suggest you turn off IE 11 in "Turn Windows Features on or off", reboot PC, then re-turn on, check the result again.

  • How do I make my website's menu sidebar fill up the entire side area?

    This is my website http://www.sabertoothedchicken.com/
    Notice how the menu sidebar only fills the tiny area surrounding the  menu text? Yeah, I don't like that. I want it to fill up the entire side  area (apart from where the headbar and footbar are), like they've got  on a lot of other sites I've seen (Examples: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page http://www.deviantart.com/ ).

  • When I open a new window in FFox7, how can I make it automatically appear exactly on top of the previous window -- not resized, not shifted, but directly on top?

    I used to set Firefox to full screen; but my new monitor is too big to do that. So I sized the Firefox window to the size I want, and I carefully centered it (using a tape measure to get it as close to dead center as possible).
    But everytime I open a new window, it appears shifted slightly to the right (I think that's called cascading, but I'm not sure). While some might like this feature, I prefer it open exactly on top of the previous window; and it's a pain to have to shift the new window manually every time I open one.
    How do I set Firefox to open new windows right on top of the parent window (and the same size), covering it up completely?
    Thanks,
    Dafydd abHugh

    Well, then isn't there some way to induce Firefox to give Windows parameters that make it open the fershlugginer window in the *same* position, instead of an offset position?

  • How do I make more than one different artists go under the same album?

    Hey, I've had a little problem lately. I've got an album, with more than one artist in it, and at my iPod touch, the artists are all showing up one by one instead of just one single artist. I want to keep the artists names, but if it can't be solved, I'll take them away and give the album the same artist name.
    -MeThePowerful-
    Message was edited by: MeThePowerful

    In iTunes:
    select all songs of that specific album > right-click > Get Info > Sorting.
    There you can enter the main artist (album artist) of the album. Klick OK.
    Now the album should be listed under the main artist although you have different artist in the artist field.
    Experiment away and see if it works.

  • HT204364 How do I make different greeting cards and send them to the same address in a bulk - not having to pay $3.99 shipping for each card

    In Iphoto, I would like to produce a bunch of greeting cards with different pics for different people and I would like all these cards to be sent to my home address in one shipment.
    The way I understand it, I can only prodce one card and order multiple copies of the same card.
    I am looking for a way not to spend $0.99 + $3.99 (shipping)....
    Can this be done?
    Or is there an app that allows that?
    Or how can I save each card and have them printed somewhere else?
    Thanks!

    Not really because the format is an odd size and when you save it as a pdf file there's a white border around the card. 
    There are 2 tutorials on how to print them yourself if you have a 3rd party image editor that supports layers or Pages from iWork: iP06 - Printing a iPhoto Greeting Card and iP07 - Printing a iPhoto Greeting Card to Standard Stock Sizes.  Apple has made it difficult to print them borderless unless the card color is the same as the card stock.

  • How do I make a form field validate that it is the sum of two other fields?

    Hi there,
    I am creating a form, and I would like one of the fields to validate by making sure that this field is the sum of two other fields in the form.  Does anyone have any ideas on how to go about this?  I know I'll need to run a custom validation script, but I'm not sure where to begin - I've never done one for validation before.
    Thanks for any help!

    OK, here's a sample script that I hope will clearly demonstrate the general approach. It is intended to be the custom Validate script of the field that the user enters that value that is supposed to be equal to the sum of the two others.
    // Custom Validate script
    (function () {
        // Get the value that the user entered
        var sVal = event.value;
        // If it is blank, do nothing else
        if (!sVal) {
            return;
        // Convert string to a number
        nVal = +sVal;
        // Get the values of the fields, as numbers
        var v1 = +getField("text1").value;
        var v2 = +getField("text2").value;
        // Add them together, rounding to two decimal places, converting to number
        var sum = +util.printf("%.2f", v1 + v2);
        // Compare entered value to the sum of the other two fields
        // Alter the user if they do not match
        if (nVal !== sum) {
            app.alert("The value you entered does not equal the sum of text1 and text2. Please correct.", 3);
            // If you want the entered value rejected, include the following
            event.rc = false;
    Replace "text1" and "text2" with the actual field names.

  • How do I make a link to another webpage open in a new window?

    Hello Everyone,  I am at a loss as to how to do this.  I'm not a developer, just someone who updates simple things on my website.  I thought I took care of this a couple of weeks ago, but whatever I did it does open the link in a new window while opening it in the window my site is in too, which defeats the purpose.  I can't find how to correct this in Help.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Pamela

    Select the text you want to open the pop up window
    In the Property Inspector,                         type javascript:void(0) into the Link field.
    http://www.cbtcafe.com/dreamweaver/popup_text/index.html
    Additionally, you have quite a few code validation errors on your page that are caused by using XHTML strict document type with HTML style closures. You may want to fix these.
