Need help with Drop Down Menu _ URGENT!!

Hello -
I'm new to Dreamweaver. I actually have an old version
(Dreamweaver MX 2004).
I'm updating a website for work and this needs to be done as
soon as possible so I'd appreciate if anyone can be so kind as to
shed light on ANYTHING. =/
This is what I need:
I need a drop down menu; when a selection is chosen, I need
information regarding that selection to appear on the bottom of the
page. (I am working off an Excel sheet - it has list of service
descriptions along w/ the unit price, frequency & other fields.
So If I chose "database hosting" off the drop down list,
information would be generated (ie. it's corresponding unit price,
frequencies, etc.)
I've attached an example of a code but I cannot use that code
(which has JavaScript) to tweak what I need exactly.
I am VERY new to this so if anybody can help be out I would
GREATLY appreciate it.
Thanks!!

Need help with drop down menu

Hi guys,
I'm using div's for the main navigation of my site and want to create a drop down for the first two buttons. All the tutorials I have seen have been for using unordered lists but I need to use divs for this navigation set (long story!).
Can anyone help me get them set up please? Ideally I would like the drop downs to fade in but it's not essential. I take it I need to create an absolutely positioned div where I want my drop downs to appear, is that correct? - but then where do I go from there?
If you click here for my test site.
Thank you very much and I hope to hear from you.
SM

Hi Ken,
Thank you for the reply.
I had the main nav as an unordered list to begin with but for some reason I didn't find them as easily controllable as the div's i.e. setting widths and heights etc. as I wanted each button to have a set width, instead of just having text with padding. Originally I had the button divides set as border left and right strokes but for some reason they weren't adding up, I think because of the padding I had on them. I know you can set these with unordered lists but opted for divs in the end!
Hope that helps.
Thanks again,
SM

Need help with drop down list in parameters

Hi All,
I have the following data set:
DEPT1     DEPT2     DEPT3 DEPT4
Commissioner's Office     Finance     Accounting     Accounts Payable
Commissioner's Office     Finance     Accounting     Fiscal Analysis & Repo
Commissioner's Office     Finance     Accounting
Commissioner's Office     Planning,Asset Mgt     Asset Management     Inventory & Tracking
Commissioner's Office     Planning,Asset Mgt     Asset Management     Mobility & Congestion
Commissioner's Office     Planning,Asset Mgt     Asset Management     Roadway Safety
Commissioner's Office     Planning,Asset Mgt     Asset Management
Commissioner's Office     DesignProj Mgt & Tec     Bridge Dsgn Insp Hyd
In plus i have four parameters with searchlight options, the problem is when i select "Finance" from DEPT2 and in the next selection level i'm seeing all the departments "Accounting,Asset Management and Bridge Dsgn Insp Hyd" insted of just "Accounting". What i want is if i select a department in DEPT2, in the next drop down list(DEPT3) i want to see only the departement corresponding to the one i selected in dept2. Please need help.
Thanks

Hi
First of all you need to be using Discoverer 10g or 11g Plus not 9.0.4. Assuming you have the right version you need to present the parameters in the correct order. You can change the order on the parameters screen by selecting Tools | Parameters from the toolbar. You then use the Move Up and Move Down buttons to place them in the right order so that DEPT1 is offered first, followed by DEPT2, then DEPT3 and then DEPT4.
Next, you need to check the radion button on the bottom of the right-hand side that allows linking of parameters then you make DEPT2 dependent upon DEPT1, with DEPT3 dependent upon DEPT2 and so on.
While this works without hierarchies it works best when you have a hierarchy in place and even better when there is a composite index on the 4 items.
Best wishes

I need help with drop down lists

I have a form that does not have lots of space and I want to use drop down lists to fill in specific information that describes site conditions. The problem I have is that the drop down list is only set up for a single line and that is not enough space for what I want in the drop down list. In other words, I have items that are several sentences. I have seen some descriptions of creating a drop down list that then fills in a text box that has multiple lines. Unfortunately, that is not an ideal solution for me. I just want the drop down list to select a single phrase. Here is an example of what I want to be able to select in the drop down.
The water heater spilled flue gases in excess of 5 minutes under worst case conditions. The combusiton testing was completed with in 30 days of the invoice submittal.
The form does not allow me to create a field that goes all the way across the page so it needs to look something like this:
The water heater spilled flue gases in excess of 5 minutes
under worst case conditions. The combusiton testing was
completed with in 30 days of the invoice submittal.
Any help is greatly appriciated.

Thanks for responding.
I have three items that are very similar in length and text for each drop down. There are 9 drop downs right now. I am using the drop downs to fill in a form that is used by several people and I want to keep things as simple as possible. Associated with the drop down already is a check box. When the check box is checked, it fills in a text box with a score (1 point, 5 points, etc). That score then tallys for a total with all the other scores in another text box. Using a drop box to fill in a text box is just getting to busy and than I have to distinguish each drop down item so it is clear which text you are selecting.

Is there a way to get ACR to appear in the "Open With" drop down menu?

Hi,
Is there a way to get Adobe Camera Raw to appear directly along with CS3 in the Mac's ( OS 10.4.11) "Open With" drop down menu?

If you installed ACR it in the right place, and are targeting the kind of file that ACR can handle, it should be there.
I have found that there are certain Tiff Scans that won't open in ACR but if you just Duplicate them in Bridge, and then target the Duplicate, they will then open in ACR.
At least they do so for me.

Need help please with drop down menu

AS2 I created a drop down menu for my portfolio. my setup is my site mc, within that mc it my portfolio and the drop down menu with five buttons. I want to link on of those button not to the root, but in the same area as the drop down menu/ this is how it is set up.
sceen1 and inside sceen1 is navebar with the drop down menu. Inside the menu are my buttons. I dont need it to link at the root(sceen1) I need to link one of the buttons to a frame in the navbar area. Sorry and I hope you can understand what I wrote.

What code have you tried? Where do you have the code planted? If you plant all of the code in one place, such as the main timeline then it might be easier for you to manage targeting whichever objects you intend to.

Basic Form with Drop Down Menu Help

Hi Guys,
I have just started using dreamweaver and i dont use code or anything yet. I have been following a tutorial from thesitewizard which runs through the basics of creating a web page in the design screen. It created a form to insert but i need to know how to create a form which has a drop down menu to have say 4 or 5 options to select the normal name email comments etc fields and submit button to enbale people to contact me. Can anyone help with this. Pleae keep in mind i am very new to this and dont have any code experience etc at all.
Thanx in advance for any help.
cheers
chris

You will need to use a form processing script to handle your form data. This isn't terribly difficult, but it's more than you can do in Design View alone.
Have a look at this form building service.

Another one to look at - although I've never used it myself, it gets mentioned a lot in these groups.

Bit of layers confusion with drop down menu

Hi guys.
I have been teaching myself web design for about 4 months,
and am still pretty clueless about a frightening amount of stuff.
I am really in a bit of a mess and am hoping someone can help
me out it.
I am doing a web site that needs to have a tabbed drop-down
menu running along the bottom of the banner.
I started doing this using some HTML and CSS code I found
online, but ended up having problems with displaying correctly in
IE. So I have scrapped it in favour of doing one in flash.
The only thing is, directly below the banner, I have a div
that contains image links. When my drop downs, expand they will go
well ontop of the area containing the image links. So my question
is , does the flash drop down's page size automatically have to be
big enough to contain the menu when expanded, or is it possible to
have the flash page size expand according to whether the menu is
expanding or not, so that there is still clickable access to the
link images underneath,when the menu is not expanded.?
Sorry if this is a very convoluted explanation. If someone
understands what I am trying to achieve and help me find any way to
make it happen, I would be hugely grateful, as I have a client who
is blown away by the design, and i dont wanna sour the relationship
by being unable to sort out this functionality.
Thanks for taking the time to read this.

I happen to have the same problem. However I cannot find the two files in step two:

Trash the following two files in the Macintosh HD > Library > Caches folder:

* com.apple.LaunchServices-014nnn.csstore
I did input my UID number as you are told to do so in the instructions. The only I can find is the one in step six a:
6.
Verify that the problem is solved. If not:
1. Trash the com.apple.LaunchServices.plist file in the Home > Library > Preferences folder of the affected account. See Note [3].
Is there a reason as to why I cannot find those files? Oh and I did delete it; all it did was reset the file associations.

Problems with drop down menu in html snippet

Hi all,
I am trying to use a form with a drop down menu so the user can jump directly to the corresponding page. I am using the code generated by http://javascript.internet.com/generators/drop-down-menu.html, and it works correctly when I test it in the "Show me the drop down menu" option on their page.
This is the html code:


<BODY>




<form name="jump">
<select name="menu" onChange="location=document.jump.menu.options[document.jump.menu.selectedIndex] .value;" value="GO">
<option value="">select genre</option>
<option value="http://www.mygaragebandstudio.com/blues_rock.html">blues/rock</option>
<option value="http://www.mygaragebandstudio.com/cinematic.html">cinematic</option>

<option value="http://www.mygaragebandstudio.com/urban.html">urban</option>
<option value="http://www.mygaragebandstudio.com/world.html">world</option>
</select>
</form>
When I paste this code into an html snippet in iWeb, my page does not work correctly after publishing to a folder. The jump to location doesn't open its corresponding page. Instead, it defaults to the same page that has the drop down menu, only the menu doesn't appear any more. Instead, I get a "hole" where the drop down menu used to be.
This is my URL: http://www.mygaragebandstudio.com/jingles.html
I examined the code of the page with the html snippet generated by iWeb, and to my surprise I couldn't even find the html code of the form with the drop down menu. Where is it?
Please help!

Green Star for you!
JSYK,
You didn't actually give PressWeb the green star by marking his post as the post that solved your question. You merely marked the question as answered but never actually marked PressWeb's post as being the post that answered your question, which will in effect reward PressWeb with the green star as seen by a green star appearing in the header for his post. I only mention this because you have incorrectly mentioned rewarding PressWeb with a green star.
Hope that helps.

IPhone 4 wifi portal login with drop down menu

Hi,
I'm extremely happy with my iPhone 4. I use it often in WiFi hotspots (hotels, university, train stations etc) and the new portal log in system is really handy. Previously I used a third party WiFi portal logging in app which is now no longer necessary. HOWEVER, there seems to be a problem with the iPhone 4 remembering log in protocols for WiFi portals that include selecting an item from a drop down menu before logging in. For instance, the WiFi hotspots in trainstations here in the Netherlands work with several protocols depending on through which organisation you can log in. Before entering your log in details you have to select through which organisation you have access to such a hotspot. The third party logging in app was able to remember how to do this, but the iPhone 4 auto logging in thing (sorry, I don't know the term) does not remember. It's frustrating to have to fill the details in every time. And I can't even use the third party app any more because it needs primary connection to the local WiFi before it can log in, and the iPhone 4 won't give a primary connection if you don't fill in the details to log in (and if you do, you're already logged in and the third party app is useles...)
Sorry for my rant, I'm wondering if there's a way to make the iPhone 4 log in tool-thing remember the protocol for logging in with drop down menus, or if there will be an update to fix it...
Thanks,
Tasmin
P.S. I'm running iOS 4.1

are you sure your stop() are in the right place??
eg.. on the last frame of the onRollOver animation??
also... why have you got on(releaseOutside); ???
onRollOut will suffice.

DWT file not updating with drop-down menu edits rom Fireworks

Aughh! I am almost done with my website, when I go back to
Fireworks and add a couple new tabs on a drop-down menu. I update
the DWT file in Dreamweaver, but one of two things happens: either
the update simply doesn't "take", or all of the <body>
section is mysteriously deleted from the DWT file. If I preview the
Fireworks template (from Fireworks), everything is as it should be,
but not when I preview in Dreamweaver. Not sure if this is a
Fireworks issue or a Dreamweaver so I've posted in both. No one in
the FIreworks forum has come up with any suggestions yet.
What the hell?
Thanks in advance for the help,
Brian

>so I've posted in both
Can't see anything here over at the newsgroup - did you
forget or not post
in such a way it doesn't show?
Please provide a URL.

Help - Changing drop-down Menu Format

Hi,
I want to know how I can get a new menu or what software I
can use to creat a new menu. Captivate 2/3 only allow you to creat
a drop down menu to break up your course into chapters. This is
annoying, since its only up top and not visible. I want to create
my course similar to breeze where all the chapters of the course
are on a visible left hand panel at all times. This makes it easy
for my customers to skip sections and navigate. Please let me know
how I can convert my swf adope captivate files into this format or
what software will allow me to do this. This is urgent, since I
have to come up with a solution in the next few days before launch.
Thank you kindly,
Mosh

Welcome to our community, Mosh
One way to accomplish this is to click Project > Resize
Project... and make the project wider. During the process you will
have the opportunity to choose how to handle the existing part of
the project. You will want to place it on the right. This should
create a new area on the left side. You could then insert button
objects in this area to allow navigation of the project.
Cheers... Rick
