Html forms dropdown menu

I have a access database that has states and cities in it. My
cusomters fill out a html form that emails to me but I want to put
the cities and states into a dropdown menu. What I want is when
they slect the state on the second menu the cities in that state
are the only ones appear. That way we don't have a few thousand
cities show up to select.
How do i make one menu work off another using asp.net?
Thanks!

Android Adobe DPS viewer. HTML form dropdown menu closes everytime the viewer navigation pops up.

I have a web content page which contains a form dropdown menu: <select><option></option></select> ... and so on. I use this as a small filter to narrow a result.
When I tap the screen, this dropdown menu is shown and works correctly on an iPad. As a side effect the navigation from the Adobe DPS viewer is also shown although this doesn't interfere with the dropdown menu in the HTML. Both are shown.
On an Android tablet, the html dropdown menu is shown for a fraction of a second until the Adobe DPS viewer navigation pops up. The HTML dropdown menu just won't stay visible.
My question: How can I solve this? How can I make the HTML dropdown visible on an Android tablet? Or how can I prevent the DPS viewer navigation from showing?
Thanks

This phenomenon does not happen on a Samsung Galaxy Tab 2. While not showing the dropdown menu as on an iPad it shows it as a scrollable menu at the bottom.

Android – html with dropdown menu not working

hi everybody,
I'm creating a digital pubblication fo android and I'm testing it on an Asus tablet.
I just have a big html widget showing a local web application. Everything works except a simple dropdown menu: when I tap on the button that should open the dropdown items, the button highlights itself, but the options don't appear.
this the HTML code:
Size: 4
4,5
5
5,5
6
6,5
7
7,5
8
8,5
9
9,5
10
10,5
11
11,5
12
12,5
13
13,5
I'm sure it worked on a Samsung tablet (within the DPS app), and it works on the Asus if I access to the application via browser.
it only doesn't work when loading it within the DPS app on the Asus device. is the tablet brand the problem?
my android version is: 4.2.2.
anybody can help me, please?
thank you very much.

it works with the native android viewer!
but with this there's another problema (that the legacy one doesn't have): I have a simple form and the last text field appears beneath the keyboard.
with the legacy viewer each time I move the focus from a textfield to the next one, the text field moves upwards to be visible (and not hidden by the keyboard).
this is the code for the form:
<div data-role="fieldcontain" class="text-field">
<label for="firstname">Nome:</label>
<input type="text" name="firstname" value="" placeholder="" class="required" id="firstname" />
</div>
<div data-role="fieldcontain" class="text-field">
<label for="surname">Cognome:</label>
<input type="text" name="surname" value="" placeholder="" class="required" id="surname" />
</div>
<div data-role="fieldcontain" class="text-field">
<label for="surname">Indirizzo:</label>
<input type="text" name="address" value="" placeholder="" id="address" class="required"/>
</div>
<div data-role="fieldcontain" class="text-field">
<label for="email">Email:</label>
<input type="email" name="email" value="" placeholder="" class="required" id="email" title="Your error message" />
<div class='error_message'></div>
</div>
<div data-role="fieldcontain" class="text-field note">
<label for="message">Note :</label>
<textarea name="message" id="message" placeholder="" ></textarea>
</div>
<div data-role="fieldcontain" class="text-field mail">
<label for="email_shop">Email negozio:</label>
<input type="email" name="email_shop" value="" placeholder="" class="required" id="email_shop" />
</div>

PS HTML Panel dropdown menu issue

copy from http://forums.adobe.com/message/4897323
Hello,
I have made a panel using Configurator which only contain a HTML loader, and now I'm in the process of creating my UI in HTML.
I need to reference all the shots of a production in a dropdown (combo) item. I have been using a <select></select> tag to do so. It does display correctly, but it's mostly unusable. If I click on it it will show the list but if I roll the mouse on the list (so rollout of the combobox) the list disappear.
The only way I can use the combo, is to right click on it to get the focus, and then use the arrow keys to go through all of them. This is not really the best experience. Any idea on how to solve this ?
cheers,
F.
Anyone would have a clue on how to proceed.

This is a bug of Flex HTML widget. Third part bug for Configurator, and Configurator can do nothing to fix it. If combox is necessary for you, you can create a combox with JS and <div>, rather than using <select></select>.

Does anyone know how to enable/disable a dropdown menu in Forms at runtime?

Is there a way how to disable/enable dropdown menu for menus that have multiple sub levels in Oracle Forms? I am trying to use the set_menu_item_property function but this takes 'menu.item' format for the first argument. I am trying to enable/disable a menu item in the form of 'menu.item.subitem' and was not able to do it using this function. If anyone knows a different function or method, please reply. I have shown an example below.
Setup -> Software -> Front Page
From the above example, I can enable/disable Software using set_menu_item_property function. But, how do I enable/disable the Front Page menu in Oracle forms at runtime?
Thanks
Edited by: user480347 on Aug 24, 2010 3:37 PM

Yes you are on the right track. You need to pass then complete menu name to set_menu_item_property
Immediate_parent menu.item_name e.g
For example you have menu like this
Id like
A1 A10 > A1010
Home > Input > Form 1
A1 A10 > A1020
Home > Input > Form 2 To disable Form 2 you must pass menu name as
A10.A1020Hope it helps

Update form not returning correct data selection in dropdown menu

Using CS3 DW along with SQL 2008 R2. I have a number of dropdown menus on an entry form (using VBScript/ASP) that are feed by SQL queries. All data is accepted in the entry form and writes to the table in the database without any issues. I created an Update form and based on a Rec ID clicked on from a list the Update form is presented with all the data in the correct fields except for one dropdown menu. All the other menus go to the correct selection except for the one. Spent 2 days attempting to resolve this. If I change the dropdown menu to a field the correct data is presented when the form comes up, but doesn't allow the user to make a selection from the menu. When I change it back to a dropdown menu the saved selection is not selected - just lists the entire list of items in the menu. Any help or ideas on this is greatly appreciated.

Hello All,
Once more thank you. I have sorted the issue out.
I observed that I was selecting the wrong field. I selected the field matching the record set of the select instead of the field matching the record set of the table I am working as seen on the image belew
I was selecting this - This is the record set of the table that hold values for the city select list
Instead of this. This is the record set of the table behind the form I am working on
My issue is now re-solved.

Help needed for as3 dropdown menu and html

First of all hello! I have to create a html website for a company. The design i've made is in photoshop ....and i have to create a dropdown menu. The first question is : Can i create the dropdown menu in flash without having to use html frames? Can i link one of the buttons of the menu in a html page so that it loads in the same browser window another html page (if so .... with what function?)? Please ... i need to know ... because i simply prefer to implement it in flash rather then html. And the second big question is : Can the stage in flash be transparent? Because if i make the menu in it, it will be impossible to match any dimensions of the stage .... and i would like to embed it into a html page...if possible without the stage color >..... Thanks in advance!!!! Tudor

For opening pages you want to look into using the navigateToURL() function. The help documentation provides information abiout it an how to control the window aspect as well.
To make the stage transparent is more of an html aspect than a Flash aspect, though you can set it up to publish that way. The key is to set the wmode paraemter that is in the html embedding code to "transparent". I am not sure if all browsers supports this feature, but I think more are willing to.

Dropdown menu problem in internet explorer

i'm pretty new to css, and i'm having trouble in regards to
the dropdown menu option (dreamweaver cs3). i've made a basic
template, and everything looks fine (preliminarily!) in firefox,
but in IE the dropdown menus have scrollbars and the word "false"
floating in them. they're also positioned wrong. any advice on
which styles are the problem? i've tried troubleshooting but its
had little effect. here is the link:
http://happyowlglass.com/happyowl-template.html
many thanks!

Have a look at the following
BROWSER HACKS: the hacks below should not be changed unless you are an expert
/* HACK FOR IE: to make sure the sub menus show above form controls, we underlay each submenu with an iframe */
ul.MenuBarHorizontal iframe
    position: absolute;
    z-index: 1010;
    filter:alpha(opacity:0.1);
/* HACK FOR IE: to stabilize appearance of menu items; the slash in float is to keep IE 5.0 from parsing */
@media screen, projection
    ul.MenuBarHorizontal li.MenuBarItemIE
    display: inline;
    f\loat: none;
    background: #FFF;
The original value is left.

Robohelp 10: how to create a dropdown menu as an index?

I currently have several standard links to other robohelp pages in my main index page. I would like to change this to a dropdown menu, but when I add a dropdown menu (Insert -> HTML -> Form -> Drop-down Menu) It doesn't have any option to link to other pages.
Is there an easy way to do this?

Jeff, long ago I stopped adding a sig line.
cnwinger, the wish form is below:
http://www.adobe.com/go/wish
A "standard drop-down menu" is a form element. RoboHelp does offer form elements but does nothing in the way of assisting with the scripting needed to make the form elements work.

How to get all the values from the dropdown menu

How to get all the values from the dropdown menu
I need to be able to extract all values from the dropdown menu; I know how to get all those values as a string, but I need to be able to access each item; (the value in a dropdown menu will change dynamically)
How do I get number of item is selection dropdown?
How do I extract a ?name? for each value, one by one?
How do I change a selection by referring to particular index of the item in a dropdown menu?
Here is the Path to dropdown menu that I'm trying to access (form contains number of similar dropdowns)
RSWApp.om.GetElementByPath "window(index=0).form(id=""aspnetForm"" | action=""advancedsearch.aspx"" | index=0).formelement[SELECT](name=""ctl00$MainContent$hardwareBrand"" | id=""ctl00_MainContent_hardwareBrand"" | index=16)", element

The findElement method allows various attributes to be used to search. Take the following two examples for the element below:
<Select Name=ProdType ID=testProd>
</Select>
I can find the element based on its name or any other attribute, I just need to specify what I am looking for. To find it by name I would do the following:
Set x = RSWApp.om.FindElement("ProdType","SELECT","Name")
If I want to search by id I could do the following:
Set x = RSWApp.om.FindElement("testProd","SELECT","ID")
Usually you will use whatever is available. Since the select element has no name or ID on the Empirix home page, I used the onChange attribute. You can use any attribute as long as you specify which one you are using (last argument in these examples)
You can use the FindElement to grab links, text boxes, etc.
The next example grabs from a link on a page
Home
Set x = RSWApp.om.FindElement("Home","A","innerText")
I hope this helps clear it up.

Dropdown menu in APEX 4.0

Hi,
I am wondering how to create the Dropdown menu in APEX 4.0. Similar to the Oracle Application Express Homepage or the one gets created in any Websheet Application. I have tried to use the List but unable to place into the right position (Display Point) to get similar look and feel in Theme 2. Builder Blue.
Please let me know if there is a easy way along with the steps.
Thanks,
AS

The steps can be detailed as follows (I will make it specific to my theme -Application Builder- and you can replace what you want)
0) a) My Page template name is WithNicolettePlugin.
b) Put the Nicolette (Thanks alot for him) plugin on #REGION_POSITION_08# in Page Zero (Global page)
c) the settings of the plugin as follows:
- Template : WithNicolettePlugin
- Before HTML : <ul class="dhtmlMenuLG2"> - After HTML : </ul> - jQuery selector submenu : .dhtmlSubMenu2
- Tab set : main
- Include single subtab : yes
- Class first parent : ui-corner-left
- Class last parent : ui-corner-right
- File Prefix : #IMAGE_PREFIX#
the others are empty
1) link the following CSS's into the Header section of the Page Template of (Bluejay-22)
<link rel="stylesheet" href="/i/css/apex_builder.min.css?v=4.2.0.00.27" type="text/css" />
<link rel="stylesheet" href="/i/css/apex_ui.min.css?v=4.2.0.00.27" type="text/css" />
<link rel="stylesheet" href="/i/css/apex_ui_builder_home.css" type="text/css" />2) link the following Scripts into the Header section of the Page Template
<script type="text/javascript">
var apex_img_dir = "/i/", htmldb_Img_Dir = apex_img_dir;
</script>
<script src="/i/libraries/apex/minified/desktop_all.min.js?v=4.2.0.00.27" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script src="/i/libraries/apex/minified/legacy.min.js?v=4.2.0.00.27" type="text/javascript"></script>
<style> html {visibility:hidden;} </style>
<script type="text/javascript">
apex.security.framebreaker("D");
</script>
<script src="/i/libraries/apex/minified/widget.textarea.min.js?v=4.2.0.00.27" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script src="/i/libraries/apex/minified/builder.min.js?v=4.2.0.00.27" type="text/javascript"></script>3) Re-write the Body section to be as the following
<div id="page-header">
.... LOGO AND WELCOME HERE ......
   <div class="apex-top-bar-end">
       <div class="apex-top-bar">
            <div id="tabs" class="dhtmlMenuLG">

        <td class="tbl-sidebar">#REGION_POSITION_03#</td>
      </tr>
    </tbody>
    </table>

   </a>
   <ul id="#TAB_NAME#" htmldb:listlevel="1" class="aTabs dhtmlSubMenu pulldown-tabs" style="display:none;">
       #TABS#
       <li class="last" dir="RTL"><span></span></li>
    </ul>
</div>and Non Current Parent Tab as the following
<div id="#TAB_ID#" class="non-current">
    <a href="#TAB_LINK#" title="#TAB_LABEL#" class="link_text">#TAB_LABEL#</a>
    <a href="#" class="link_icon">

Resetting a dropdown menu selection

I am using a dropdown menu as a form of navigation between screens. On screen one you drop the menu down and can choose to go to screen two. However, when I come back to screen one the drop down menu remains on the "Screen Two" option. Is there
any way to reset the drop down menu to say"Screen One" upon leaving the page?
Thank you!

The only way I know about is to reset dropdown each time you navigate back to Screen1. To do that just set a variable in screen1 property
OnVisible
UpdateContext({active: true})
and in screen1 property OnHidden
UpdateContext({active: false})
Then in dropdown visual add this in Items
If(active=true, .... your data source here ...)
Or perhaps easiest way is instead of resetting datasource of dropdown, you can reset dropdown default by adding this into
Default property of dropdown
If(active=true, "Screen1")
