Ah, the shortcut (or contextual) menu. For Snow Leopard, see

How can I get the drop down menu on the internet to work, which shows most visited websites? It was working on Firefox, and now doesn't.

On the internet when using Firefox, the drop down menu on recently visited sites (where you type in web addresses), does not work. How can I get it drop down and show websites that I recently visited, so I can click on them there instead of retyping them every time?

Make sure that the Location Bar is not set to "Nothing":
* Firefox (Tools) > Options > Privacy > Location Bar: When using the location bar, suggest: History, Bookmarks, History and Bookmarks
Another possible cause is a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

Elements 9 - text, font family - how can I get the drop down menu to work?

I can't change the text fonts in Elements 9. Most everything else seems to work except the font family drop down menu. When I click on the arrow, the menu drops but immediately dissappears. The font size drop down works but not the family menu. Help please.

I think it's usually a restriction of short displays on netbooks and laptops etc. You may have to live with it unless you can change display resolution via the control panel.

Made a drop down menu. How can I get the drop down to fade in and out? !

Hi guys!
I've created a drop down menu (with the help of you legends on here! )...Now I just need it to animate so when the user hovers over the main menu item, the drop down fades in.
Here's the HTML I have...
    <ul id="nav">
        <li><a href="#">Nav 1</a></li>
        <li><a href="#">Nav 2</a></li>
        <li><a href="#">Nav 3</a>
            <ul>
                <li><a href="#">» Sub Menu 1</a></li>
                <li><a href="#">» Sub Menu 2</a></li>
                <li><a href="#">» Sub Menu 3</a></li>
                <li><a href="#">» Sub Menu 4</a></li>
            </ul>
        </li>
        <li><a href="#">Nav 5</a></li>
        <li><a href="#">Nav 6</a></li>
    </ul>
...and here's my CSS...
ul#nav {width:920px; height:35px; list-style:none; padding:0; margin:0; background:url(navBg.jpg) repeat-x; z-index:999;}
ul#nav li a:hover, #nav li a:active {background:url(navOn.jpg) repeat-x; text-decoration:none;}
ul#nav li a {color:#E0E2E7; display:inline-block; float:left; margin:0; padding:10px 19px; width:auto; text-decoration:none;}
* html #nav li {display:inline; float:left; } /* for IE 6 */
* + html #nav li {display:inline; float:left; } /* for IE 7 */
#nav ul {width:208px; left:-9999em; list-style:none; margin:35px 0; padding:0; position:absolute; z-index:999;}
#nav li:hover ul {left:auto;}
#nav li {float:left;}
#nav li li a {width:190px; background-color:#efefef; color:#2e2e2e; padding:8px; margin:0; }
#nav li li a:hover {background-color:#000; background-image:none; color:#FFF;}
#nav li:hover {background:url(assets/images/frame/navOn.jpg);}
From what I can make out, I assume I need either Javascript or JQuery...
Does anyone know how I can get the drop down to fade in and out?
Thank you very much and I hope to hear from you.

Yes, you'll need a client-side script to do fade-in/fade-out fx. Look at jQuery Superfish.

How do I clear the "drop down menu" of past titles I have searched for?

How do I clear the drop down menu of titles that have been searched for in the past? Example; If I type in a word such as craig, then craigslist appears in the drop down menu, how do I clear this?

Use these steps to remove saved (form) data from a drop-down list:
#click the (empty) input field on the web page to open the drop-down list
#highlight an entry in the drop-down list
#press the Delete key (on Mac: Shift+Delete) to remove it.

How do I get a Drop-down menu on back/forward button

How do I get the old (FF3) Drop-down menu on the back/forward button, so I can go back/forward more than 1 page at a time?

You can get the drop down list by either right-clicking on the back/forward buttons, or holding down the left button until the list appears.
If you want the drop-down arrow you can add it with the Back/forward dropmarker add-on - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/backforward-dropmarker

How do I find the drop down menu on Safari?

I'm a total novice so apologies right now. I've only had my Mac for a couple of weeks and already I can't sign into ebay which (on my old pc) meant I had to clear my cache. I've searched and seen that I have to use the drop down menu but er, I have no idea what that is, where I can find it or how. Many thanks in advance!

Like I said, apologies! Obviously, I didn't make myself clear at all! Bodycalming, I can confirm that it isn't always possible to successfully sign into ebay. Especially if you need to clear your cookies.
Thank you Carolyn, I actually laughed when I read your reply and I'm sorry to have wasted your time. I've been on ebay since 2003 so I know how to sign in there, I was just being bounced back to the sign in page each time I tried. As I said, I knew how to deal with it on my old pc but was at a loss on my shiny new Mac.
shdr2thewheel, thank you for those links, I've had a quick look and they seem really useful. I've already implemented a few changes! I found the drop down menu now and have cleared my cookies and it seems to be working just fine.
Thank you!

When i revert to ver 29 i get pull down menus for searching after download of automatic 33.3 I can't get the drop down menu. I've tried to block the update

when i use ver 29 i get past menu drop downs. when i get the automatic update to 33 or higher I can't get the pull down menu. I don't like to type in the search work every time I go to a web site. It should remember where I've been or at least let me keep ver 29 without automatic updating., I've tried to set the firewall not to update but it does it anyway. some firewall. Thanks if you can help this. I'll have to go to safe mode and revert to yesterday and download ver 29 again, I can do this everyday but that makes me not want to use firefox. I don't want to leave firefox. I like it. ! HELP?????

in firefox 33 the search field on the homepage will now populate by search suggestions provided by the search engine once you start typing -this is why the dropdown with your entries from history is no longer there unfortunately...

How can I locate the drop down menu to select thumbnails for viewing my photos?

I am using Microsoft Windows Vista. I select Files> Get photos and Videos> From Files and Folders. I select my photos and In my views I have a choice of different size icons, list, details and tiles. The icons are a flower image. When I select an image to view it only appears as an extra large icon on the middle right side of the moniter. I would like to view the thumbnail of the photo bfore I bring to my organizer. The drop down menu doesn't have a choice for thumbnail.

Perhaps I need to supply more details. I am using PSE9. I haven't any problem importing the images into the Organizer as I just select the Icons and select "Get Media" or "Open" and they transfer over to the Organizer. I would like to see the image as a thumbnail not an icon when when making the selection. If I right click them, the Icon, and select open they will open in "Windows Live Photo Gallery".
The icons are now listed on the left side of the monitor about the right middle it states "Select A File To Preview". When I select a file (icon) a large file (icon) appears in that area and it should be a thumbnail of the image. Somehow I can't locate the drop down menu taht permits me to make that selection. I think it has something to do with my files being able to open in Windows Live Photo Gallery when right clicking and select Open. Is the drop down menu only available in Windows 7?

How can i get a drop down menu or check list control

i want to give the user a choice between 7 options on the front panel. i want either a check list or drop down menu.thanks

You can use any of the ring controls to generate a drop down list. The ring controls are found on the Controls >> Ring & Enum palette. You program the drop down items the same way with any of these controls. Type the first drop down item on the control. Right click on the control and select "add item after". The controls text field will blank out and you can enter your second item. Repeat for every item on the list you need to generate. After you are done entering items, click on the control with the application tool and you will see a drop down menu of all the items you entered.

How can I get the drop down window for a ID and P/W "Always remember" Auto Fill

Recently I had a mail issue with my ATT (Yahoo) Mail account and they temporarily changed by Password.
After the issue was resolved I changed it back but the auto fill kept the temporary Password in Safari when I log onto my e-mail account via the internet instead of the Apple Mail program.
In the Past, whenever I would put a different P/W or ID there would be a drop down window that said :
Never, later or Always remember", at least something like that terminology.
Since I have had no reason to change P/W or ID lately I do ot know if it is Lion issue or if there is a way of getting the drop down to appear.
Thanks,
Greg

If I am not making my request understood, please let me know and I will try and reword it.
It is always easy to understand what I are asking but it does not always mean that others understand it.
Thanks,

How do I get a drop down menu to auto default to option selected a value other than the default written in the javascript?

I use web based software where I have to select from a drop down menu a particular option. However, I only ever use 1 option. Sometimes as much as 100 times a day. Is there anyway to get Firefox to auto select the same option every time? I don't have access to the source code so I cant change <option selected="selected" value="">.

A possibility would be a Greasemonkey script to do this automatically or a JavaScript bookmarklet to do it manually.
You would need to remove the selected="selected" from the currently selected option and set that attribute for the wanted option.
You can test the bookmarklet here:
*https://developer.mozilla.org/en/HTML/Element/select
<pre><nowiki>javascript:(function(){var d=document,s=d.getElementsByTagName('SELECT')[0],o=s.getElementsByTagName('OPTION'),S='selected',v='value1',i;for(i=0;O=o[i];i++){if(O.value==v){O.setAttribute(S,S);O.selected=true}else{O.removeAttribute(S);O.selected=false;}}})();</nowiki></pre>
If there are more 'selects' then you need to adjust the element number [0] and you also need to adjust the value of the wanted option.

How do I get a drop-down menu to choose SMTP when composing an email in Apple Mail?

Apple Mail used to have a drop-down menu in the Composing Mail window to select the SMTP server to use. It is no longer there, in Yosemite (10.10.1). How do I get that back?

I'm not sure what you are trying to say here. That's exactly what DW offers validation behaviors or Spry Validation for. Select the form element(s) required to validate, apply the behavior, set the options in the dialog. Done.

I can't get the drop down menu in the search box in newest version.

I just updated to the latest version (35.0) and can't get drop down menu. I couldn't get it in the last version either. I've filled everything out in the change settings page but still can't figure out how to get my choices to show up. (Please keep answers simple--I'm not a computer geek but I can follow clear directions.)

I see it now. Thank you, Phillip. I read the help page before, but I think it would help if that page pointed out that the options you have selected will appear at the bottom of the list of suggestions after you type a search in the box. Also that would have been clearer if I did not select give suggestions. The key point for my understanding was that I had to type a search first in order to get the options to appear, which is the opposite of how it worked before. Definitely fix that help page to make that part clear. And thanks again, so much.
