How to create drop down menu

Question

Hi
Can we create drop down menus in HTML DB as we do in
Visual Basic.
Thanks.

Answer 1

In HTML DB v2.0 you can create drop down menus. I cannot say if they are the same as Visual Basic because I am not familiar with VB..
Here is an example pull-down menu:
     A   B   C                <--- Top level
     A1  B1                   <--- Second level
     A2                       <--- Third levelInitially the user sees a horizontal menu with "A", "B', and "C". When the user clicks on "A" a menu containing "A1" and "A2" is displayed under "A".
Here is what you do to create this:
1.) Edit a page.
2.) Click the "Create" (plus sign) button in the "Lists" region under "Shared Components".
3.) Enter a List name.
4.) Make the "List Template" be "DHTML Menu with Sublist".
5.) Click the "Create List Entry >" button on the right. You are now creating your Top Level menu.
6.) Enter "A" into the "List Entry Label".
7.) Set "Target Type" to "- No Target -". This could be an URL or another page in the application.
8.) Click the "Create and Create Another" button. You are now create the lower level menus.
9.) Select "A" for the "Parent List Entry".
10.) Enter "A1" into the "List Entry Label".
11.) Set "Target Type" to "- No Target -".
12.) Repeat steps 8, through 11 for "A2".
13.) Click the "Create and Create Another" button.
14.) Repeat steps 6 through 12 for "B" and "B1".
15.) Click the "Create and Create Another" button.
16.) Repeat steps 6 and 7 for "C".
17.) Click the "Create" button.
18.) Click the "Add this list to the current page" link.
19.) Specify the region information for the menu and click "Next" button.
20.) Click the "Create List Region" button.
