How to "Copy & Paste" onto a drop down menu?

How do you make a drop down menu with a giant list of countries without having to plug in every country one by one?
I'm trying to recreate a drop down menu my boss has on his website onto Adobe Formscentral. The problem is I don't want to make a drop down menu and have to type out every country he has on the website drop down "It's seriously has every country in the world" If there is script I have to type somwhere so be it, rather mess around with that than waste company time typing countries down.

Hi,
We do not have any way to import data into a dropdown list and do not have any Templates with a complete Country list, but you can add or vote on either/both in the feature ideas:

If you need to add a new idea click "Create an idea" under "Actions" in the top right.
Thanks,

How do I get the complete drop down Menu?

How do I get the complete drop down menu when I CTRL-Mouse click a folder. I am getting MORE in the bottom, and I need it to be removed.
Thanks

The "More" area in the contextual menu's are bothering quite a few people. It's a feature of Leopard and can't be removed. There may be a hack available, but I'm waiting for some help from Apple...
It reminds me of the Personalized menu's that Microsoft enables by default in some versions of MS Office for Windows. And it's a feature that I turn off immediately after installing Office for a client.

Copy text fields and drop down menu fields

Hi,
Using LiveCycle Designer ES, I am making a simple form with some text fields and along with some drop-down menu fields. With the resulting pdf, I need for one to be able to select the appropriate selection in the drop-down menus. Then using cntl-a to select everything and then cntl-v to copy it into a text document. This approach will only copy the text fields and not what is showing in the drop-down menu field. Is there any way to solve this problem? The end users computer has limited tools and software cannot be installed on it.
Thank you for considering this issue and any help you may provide,
ja

Hi,
I don't really know if the text field can be selected using Ctl+a, but if that is possible how about adding extra text field that is linked to pulldown menu?
If the usage of the PDF is only for copying, then I would make a formcalc or javascript to combine all the text into one text field so that user only need to copy paste one field.

How to create a sort of drop down menu at mouse location please?

Hello,
I would like to create a sort of drop down menu. When the user right clicks, I would like to create something similar as if you right click in your browser, or right click in this forum text box area (you get "undo", "copy", "paste".. that appears right next to the mouse).
What Swing class would you use for that please?
Thank you very much.

Use a JPopupMenu
You will need to add a MouseListener that shows it to the component you want to display it on.

How to get "tones" tab in drop down menu

how to get "tones" tab in drop down menu

I assume that you are referring to the categories on your iTunes library (?), if you are then go into Edit > Preferences and on the General tab make sure that Tones is ticked
You can also enable the left-hand sidebar on iTunes 11 on a PC via control-S, which then allows you to view the sections of your library (those enabled in Preferences) via that sidebar, and if you have iOS devices they will also show on that sidebar when connected.

How to import excel list into drop down menu in acrobat pro DC

Does anyone know if an excel list of 527 items can be imported into a drop down menu in adobe acrobat DC? I am on a mac v10.10.

I would convert the Excel worksheet into a tab delimited file. Edit that file in a text editor, not Word, into a list that meets the formatting for the array for the setItems. method. Then add the code to use that array to set the items for the drop down field. So you have something like:
var MyItems = new Array("One", "Two", "Three");
this.getField("Dropdown1").setItems(MyItems);
You can then cut and paste this into the JavaScript console, highlight text and execute the text. Or cut and paste the code into a document level JavaScript.

How to store session variables in drop down menu (and radiobutton/checkbox)

How am I going to store session variables in the drop down menu, radio button, checkbox.
In text area, I do like below:
<input type="text" name="membershipno" size="5" maxlength="50" value="<%=((session.getValue("Smembershipno")!=null)?session.getValue("Smembershipno"):"") %>">
Any idea?

Hi jeffkyt79, I could have answered this on Expert's Exchange. But I suppose it would be hard as the site is down right now :-(
Here is sample code for the form:
<form action="" name="form1">
<input type="text" name="field1" value="<%
if (session.getAttribute("field1")!=null) {
out.println(session.getAttribute("field1"));
} %>"><br>
<input type="text" name="field2" value="<%
if (session.getAttribute("field2")!=null) {
out.println(session.getAttribute("field2"));
} %>"><br>
<input type="text" name="field3" value="<%
if (session.getAttribute("field3")!=null) {
out.println(session.getAttribute("field3"));
} %>"><br>
<input type="checkbox" name="check1" value="tick"<% if (session.getAttribute("check1")!=null) out.println(" checked"); %>><br>
<% String selRadio=(session.getAttribute("r1")!=null)?(String)session.getAttribute("r1"):""; %>
<input type="radio" name="r1" value="yesdot"<% if (selRadio.equals("yesdot")) {out.println(" checked");} %>>
<input type="radio" name="r1" value="nodot"<% if (selRadio.equals("nodot")) {out.println(" checked");} %>><br>
<select name="sel">
<% String selOption=(session.getAttribute("sel")!=null)?(String)session.getAttribute("sel"):""; %>
<option value="option1"<% if (selOption.equals("option1")) {out.println(" selected");} %>>OPTION 1
<option value="option2"<% if (selOption.equals("option2")) {out.println(" selected");} %>>OPTION 2
     <option value="option3"<% if (selOption.equals("option3")) {out.println(" selected");} %>>OPTION 3
</select>
</form>
And here's the revised javascript function to put in form1.jsp:
function newWin() {
f=document.form1.elements;
str="?";
mypage="test2.jsp"; // I've hardcoded the url for testing but you can fix this
for (i=0;i<f.length;i++) {
if (f.type=="text") {
if (f[i].value!="") {
str=str+f[i].name+"="+f[i].value+"&";
          continue;
     if (f[i].type=="checkbox"||f[i].type=="radio") {
     if (f[i].checked) {
     str=str+f[i].name+"="+f[i].value+"&";
     if (f[i].type=="select-one") {
     str=str+f[i].name+"="+f[i].options[f[i].selectedIndex].value+"&";
str=str.substr(0,str.length-1);
// now open the popup
mypage+=str;
win=window.open(mypage, 'myname'); // I've left out the winprops but you can fix this
If you can ask any more questions, could you do it on EE (if possible!!). I know this works because I've tested it.

How do I reset the font drop-down menu?

In the font drop-down menu, all used fonts are listed on top of the rest. Now I got a long pile of used fonts, but only two fonts among them are most frequently used, and I want to keep only these two on top of the drop-down menu. How do I reset the list (clear the history)? Thanks.

Mine shows only the last 6 used fonts. Note that you can option click the fonts drop down menu to show them only by name, without their preview, thus saving you some space.

How do I remove the autocomplete drop-down menu from textboxs, not the awesome bar?

I like having the drop-down menu from the url, but the autocomplete option for textboxs within like when I type my username and it pops up with all of the ones that has been used on that site are really annoying. How do I get rid for the latter? I didn't have this before I upgraded to Firefox, and now I can't get rid of it. Fyi, I'm rather tech inept, don't use complicated comp sci words please!

You can use History > 'Clear Recent History" to clear already saved form data.
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Clear+Recent+History
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 to build advanced search with drop down menu (ASP)

Hi,
I'm using CS4 with ASP / SQL. I have a search page which contains only 2 fields; one is user input (search term), the other is a drop down menu to define which column they want to search on. How can I define the SQL statement - or can I only choose to search on values in the table, rather than on columns?
thanks

Which dropdown menu you want to customized ?The specific menu we would like to customize is the 'Action' menu on the Person form that usually contains 'Create Employment' and so on. We have a specific recruiter responsibility that we would like to limit to 'Create Applicant'. I have been unable to come up with a combination of steps in personalizations that sets that value in the dropdown and allows it then be unchangeable. If you have any suggestions, please let me know. I would prefer not to create a custom form but without personalizations, I might have to.

How do I turn off the drop-down menu on the back button?

I use a laptop and my hands aren't too dextrous. Every time I click the "back" button I get the drop down menu, which means I then need to move my hand back to the pad (slowly!) move the pointer, and try again. It can take me several attempts to go back one site now!
I have searched for hours to find out how to turn this drop down menu off, to no avail, and even looked through all the settings in about:config in an attempt to find a way around this. It seriously impacts my ability to use my laptop on the web now, so if anyone can please come up with a way to get back to the old back button, with no menu when my slow old finger cannot move fast enough to get off the button, I would be very grateful.

You can use that list and open the previous tab just above the one that appears bold and has a bullet.
The current active entry has a bullet in front of it.<br />
If you hover an entry in the tab session history list with the mouse then you see an arrow at the left side pointing left (Back) or right (Forward) to show the direction.<br />
You can left click an item to open it in the current tab or middle-click or Ctrl left-click an entry in that list to open that link in new tab, just like you can with other links.<br />
