Pop up menu link problem in MX

I've added a test pop up menu which isn't working. The drop down 'New Link' links to www.taxaccount.co.uk/cgs.html but it doesn't show the link when clicked although the drop down does show. I've also uploaded the mm_menu.js file but no joy. Any ideas what to do to solve the problem please?

Your link code is being processed to search
for: http://www.taxaccount.co.uk/www.taxaccount.co.uk/cgs.html
which, as you can see, contains your domain name twice.
Change target code to target just cgs.html
Now that you have provided the link to the problem page, we can see the call for the remote javascript
<script language="JavaScript" src="mm_menu.js"></script>
located just above your </head> tag

"Show Pop-Up Menu" behavior problems

Greetings—
The "Show Pop-Up Menu" under Add Behaviors is grayed-out and
won't allow additional links to be added to the templates. I'm
currently on DW MX 2004.
Thank you

> Does anyone have any suggestions what to do so this

The functionality has been REMOVED as a primary function in
CS3. It will
allow you to edit a LEGACY MENU, but not create a new menu
from scratch.
This is a good thing. The DW menus were indescribably
horrible.
In their place, use the Spry menus, or -

Pop up menu links

Hi thanks for reading this can anybody tell me where I'm going wrong in dreamerweaver mx 2004 I have a list of buttons on the left side of the home page and have linked a pop up menu to each button to take me to another page. the problem occurs when I preview the site in explorer (f12 ) all looks ok when I click on the pop up menu it opens the relevant page but with a new tab but when I click the home button to take me back to the home page it goes back to the home page but on the page its just opened so I still have two tabs open it doesn't close one if I click other links on the pop up menu I can have loads of tabs open. any feedback would be brill. Ps i started to build the site then i had to move it to my other hardrive whlist i formmated this one because of a virus then i put it back again on c drive and carried on building could this have anything to do with it cheers.

You have not provided any way to look at your code and it is very difficult to read you post without much punctuation and no line breaks but as far as ican tell what youare asking is why do links open in new tabs instead of in the same tab or window when you click on them is that correct? See what I mean, kind of difficult to read isn't it?
If I understood you correctly, you probably have a target specified in the link tag. Just remove it.
That is, change:
<a href="YourLinkedPage.html" tareget="_blank">
to:
<a href="YourLinkedPage.html">

Pop up menu links dont work

i have created a pop up menu in fw then brought it into my
page using "fw insert html" into dw. saved the page as template. i
then modified it w/ behaviours to have internal page links. i have
already resolved the issue of the menu text showing thru the menu
colors by adding a wider border and making it dark so they wont be
seen. now the links from the pop up menu dont find the pages. i
have partially resolved the issue on the first page view but once
the page is found the menu doesnt work at all on the second page
using the pop up menu that are duplicated into all the pages from
the template.
any ideas?? help!!

Well, I found a coworker with CS4 and the popup menu editor appears to work. Further confirming that this may be a bug.

Pop up menu colour problem

Hi,
I tried to make a navigation bar in fireworks with a pop-up
menu as well. I set the colour for the nav bar to be the same a s
the web page its used for. However when I insert the resultant
nav-bar into dreamweaver and preview it the colour is very grainy.
Could anybody help with this? You can see what i mean if you look
at www.hearttohand.net
thanks

How did you export the images? Or did you do that
explicitly...? Hmm.
I know Fireworks can save HTML, but don't use it. Export your
images and give them real, meaningful names and build the navbar in
Dreamweaver. Do you even know what this image is:
<img name="navbar_r1_c1"
src="images/navbar/navbar_r1_c1.gif" width="800" height="7"
border="0" id="navbar_r1_c1" alt="" />
Make your mockup in Fireworks. Set slices and name the slices
so that you get image file names like home.gif, news.gif, and
history.gif to work with in Dreamweaver.
When you go to export your slices (File>Image Preview in
CS3), set your palette to Adaptive or Exact, rather than Web 216.
Adaptive or Exact palettes will use the colors of your image,
rather than dithering (which is what looks like is happening for
you) or shifting your colors.
Also, for your banner, you should export at a higher quality
level on the .jpg image. You have quite a bit of noise in it.

Pop up menu display problem

I have been using Fireworks for a short while, and am still
learning my way around. I have had problems with pop up menus in
that once the art is placed in a Dreamweaver page, any spaces in
the text of the pop up menus are replaced with a capital E with a
circumflex. I have managed to get rid of the errant character in
the past but am not sure exactly how! Now the problem is back and
driving me crazy! I don't know if this is a font problem, a
Fireworks problem or a Dreamweaver problem, but any help with this
would be greatly appreciated!!
I should add that I am using version 6.0 with on a Mac with
OSX 10.4.7

>I have been using Fireworks for a short while, and am

> around. I have had problems with pop up menus
If the first sentence is true, then you should not use the
pop-up menus. In
fact, nobody should use them. There are much better ways. The
FW pop-ups
are poorly conceived and poorly implemented, and will cause
you much more
trouble than you save by using them.
> I should add that I am using version 6.0 with on a Mac
with OSX 10.4.7
In addition to the pop-up menus, version 6.0 was just as
troublesome. There
were many unfortunate problems with that release version. You
should update
to 6.1 at your earliest convenience (use the updater at the
Adobe site).

ESS on Workplace menu link problem

I'm setting up a new ITS instance to connect to our PRD server for ESS. I published the ESS service files from R3 to the new instance but when I logon to sapwp with the ITS (Workplace) to view the ESS menus, the links are pointed to http://<server>:<port>/scripts/wgate/webgui/!?~transaction=<transaction> instead of http://<server>:<port>/<transaction>/.
How do I force ITS to use the individual transaction templates instead of the webgui?
Thanks,
Steve

Hi Steve,
Did you manage to find a solution? If so, please let me know what you did.
Thanks,
Alan.

Select from Pop-Up Menu return Data

I am trying to build a nutritional information table. Therefore I have Table 1 Sheet 1. The Columns A, B, C, and D are titled Food, Calorie, Carbohydrate, and Protein respectively. I have populated 10 rows of information (i.e. Chicken, 300, 0, 36).
What I want to be able to do is create another table, in this case Table 2, where I build my diet (based on my workouts) from the information listed in Table 1. For example, let's say in Table 2 I want to create Cells A1:A10 as Pop-Up Menus.
When I go to build my diet in Table 2, I would like my diet to consist of 5 food items. Therefore I select Cell A1:A5 in Table 2 which are Pop-Up Menus. All my options are linked to the Food Column in Table 1. After selecting the proper item the respective nutritional information will populate in the following columns.
Table 1
A1 B1 C1 D1 (Food, Calories, Carbohydrates, Protein)
w x y z
Table 2
A1 B1 C1 D1 (Food, Calories, Carbohydrates, Protein)
(A1 is a Pop-Up Menu linked to Table 1 Column A1)
Once I select w in Table 2 A1, Cell B1, C1, D1 will fill in automatically with the information from Table 1.
I hope I explained that clearly enough. If Numbers cannot do this, what do you recommend?
Thanks in advance,
Mike

Yes, your formula for column C of table 2 would look something like the one below. The particular row does not matter, you can put this in all of your rows in column C. The first parameter (A) refers to the cell in column A that is in the same row as the formula. The second parameter (Table 1::A) refers to the entire A column of Table 1 (except for headers and footers). And the third (Table 1::C) refers to the entire column C of Table 1. The formula will look in Table 1::A for the value that matches Table 2::A and will return the corresponding value found in Table 1::C.
=LOOKUP(A,Table1::A,Table1::C)

Problem with pop up menu created in fireworks

I have created a banner with buttons and added a pop up menu to them.
They work perfectly with-in Fireworks.
I then export page to dreamweaver and both banner and buttons display properly but I cannot get pop up menu to show at all.
I want to choose each menu and make the links with-in dreamweaver but cannot get pop up top show.
I am using CS5 and would appreciate your help.
AlSO I AM STILL LEARNING SO IF YOU COULD KEEP IT AS SIMPLE AS POSSIBLE I WOULD APPRECIATE IT.

HELLO AND THANK YOU FOR YOUR REPLY. I HAVE CREATED A QUICK BANNER WHICH IS SIMILAR TO THE ONE I WANT TO CREATE. THE LIST OF BUTTON ARE PLACED INTO MY BANNER AND I HAVE ADDED POP UP MENUS TO ALL WITH 3 CELLS DEEP DROPPING DOWNWARDS. WHEN I VIEW THESE IN PREVIEW IN A WEB BROWSER FROM FIREWORKS THEY WORK PERFECTLY. THE PROBLEM IS THAT I DON'T SEEM TO BE ABLE TO MOVE THIS PAGE TO DREAM WEAVER AND HAVE IT DISPLAY THE POP UP MENUS. THEY WILL SHOW AS AN IMAGE AS IT IS SEEN HERE BUT WILL NOT DROP DOWN IN PREVIEW BROWSER IN DREAM WEAVER. I WANT TO BE ABLE TO SELECT THE INDIVIDUAL LISTS IN THE DROP DOWN MENU AND CREATE LINKS TO VARIOUS PAGES WITH-IN MY SITE IN DREAM WEAVER. IT MAY BE THE CASE THAT I AM NOT EXPORTING IT PROPERLY OR SAVING IT CORRECTLY.

The spry pop-up menu I built in Adobe Dreamweaver worked fine in my old Firefox, I updated Firefox today and the menu no longer works--despite disabling the pop-up blocker in Firefox preferences...what's the problem??? I need the menu to work!!!

I built a new pop-up menu for my website using Spry in Adobe Dreamweaver. Because of some differences in .HTML and .XHTML
it took me days to get it right. I tested every variation in Firefox until it worked perfectly. Today, I installed the newest version of Firefox and now the pop-up no longer works. I changed the preferences in Firefox to disable to pop-up blocker and it STILL DOESN'T WORK...although an older style of pop-up menu (menu machine) which is no longer supported by Adobe, DOES WORK.
HELP!!! THIS IS IMPORTANT.

pixlor:
OP is using CS3 and the menu blog is talking about the menus
in earlier
versions of FW, so *most* of the points made in the blog
don't apply.
That's not to say that using CS3 pop-up menus is a *good*
thing....

Pointless change to Safari 6.1 pop-up menu for links

Can somebody please put the adults back in charge of OS development at Apple? This morning I was prompted to install the latest OS update, which includes a new version of Safari (6.1). Almost immediately I noticed this change to the order of items in the pop-up menu when you right-click a link: the position of the first two items is switched. That may seem like a trivial change, but if you're accustomed to opening different types of links in new tabs or new windows, then you've established a bit of muscle memory in your mouse hand, which is now thrown off by the change: you'll instinctively choose the wrong item. One of the basic principles of software usability is that you leverage the learned behaviors of your users, you don't turn them into obstacles.

It seems somebody at Apple strongly believes the UI must be tabbed for all things you do. I feel we're told "don't use windows if you can use tabs". Well, I won't be using tabs (neither in Safari, nor Finder, nor nothing), because they waste a precious line of display space.
Too much silly things done in OSX since Lion. As the OP said, please put adults back in charge of OS development. Thanks.
Big thanks also to MacOsX for sharing his (working) solution for this Safari bug (yes, it's a bug)

Fireworks 8 pop up menu problem

My problem involves creating a pop-up menu in Fireworks 8 and
then when Iimport into Dreamweave 8, and then preview using
Firefox, or EI, the box gets cut off and the words hang off the
edge. I have the width and height specifications in Fireworks set
to automatic. When I preview in Firefox or EI from fireworks, it
looks great, so it almost seems it is something in the transition
from Fireworks to Dreamweaver. Anyone deal with this?

Is there a formula I can use to link a choice from pop-up menu to a $ amount in adjacent cell? i.e. if Item 1 is chosen, adjacent cell populates $125. if Item 2 is chosen, adjacent cell populates $250.

Hi Gabe,
You could use an IF statement in the second cell.
Popup in column B, two items: "This", That" (without the quotes)
Formula in same row of column C
Format the cell in column C as currency.
If there are more than two items in the popup menu, it's better to use a lookup table containing the same list as the popup in column A, with the corresponding values in column B:
C5: =LOOKUP(B,List :: $A,List :: $B)

Barry

Help! Pop-up menu problem

I made a pop-up menu in a trial version of Fireworks 8.
Everything works great within Fireworks, but when I try to insert
it in Dreamweaver 4 (using the Insert Fireworks html button) it
tells me that I need to insert an Fireworks html that was exported
from Fireworks. The pop-up menu I made was exported as an html from
Fireworks. Help!

I don't think you are going to have much success trying to
marry DW4 with
anything contemporary. It's methods and structure are so
antique, you know?
