Safari Select Specific Pulldown Menu Item

Is there any way to select a specific item from a pulldown menu on a web page in Safari? I would prefer to avoid using GUI scripting and just use the do Javascript command if possible.

If you're not looking for an AppleScript solution, this might not be the best place to ask... but anyway...
JavaScript knows nothing about menus in web pages, but it does know about web forms and can manipulate them.
What you'll end up doing it something along the lines of using JavaScript to set the form field to a specific value. Something like:
<blocquote>javascript myform.field.selectedIndex = 3;
would set the selected item of the form element 'field' in the form 'myform' to the third item.

Hi,
Usually on selection of a menu item from detailed navigation an iview appears which contains values from an R/3 system, but now when i select any item for the detailed navigation i get a download pop up window
which ask me to save the page. When i press the save button the download stops.

Where's Safari's "View Source" menu item?

This used to be in the View menu but vanished at some point (I'm using Safari 6.0, OS 10.7.4).
Is there some way to do this, still?

It seems to have been moved to the Develop menu, which is an option to view in Safari Preferences.
When you bring down the Develop menu, this is what you will see:

When I select a menu item, the highlight is light blue and the item font color goes white. It is very difficult to read? Any solution?

When I select Bookmarks, the menu item (Bookmarks) is highlighted in light gray color; and the letters of the work itself (Bookmarks) turns white. This same thing happens when you go into individual bookmark selections. It is very difficult to read. Are there any alternatives that can be set by the user?

Are you using a standard Windows theme?
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

Problem when trying to add a link to the left menu item!!!!

Hi everyone,
I am trying to put a new menu group on the left menu,with a link in that group for every one.On checking with the customization guide this is what i did
for one link i did add the following lines in each of the files
1)xlWebAdmin.properties
- menuGroup.Misc-Menu=Misc Menu
- menuItem.Misc-Menu.My-Nomination=My Nomination
2) xlDefaultAdmin.properties
- menuItem.Misc-Menu.My-Nomination.link=mynomineefrm?showfrm
3) repacked the war and the ear
4) Restarted my server
When I login into the administration(xelsysadm) page I didnt see any menu item with name "My Nomination" which i am supposed to see.
secondly it shows the menu item when ever i select some group and click on assign menu item.
Moreover, when I try to assign this menu item to all users group it gives me this error
On browser it prints
Permission Denied to Assign Selected Menu Items
You do not have the permissions to assign one or more selected menu items.
on console it prints

These are the steps to see the new menu item. To make this menu item working:
you'll have to write action class, form bean class and you'll have to create JSPs and make their entry in struts-config as welll as in Tiles-def.xml
Then your menu item will work.

Create an context menu item to open a file on a specific display

Hello,
I have an external display connected to my MBP, but I don't always need to use it so it's not always on. I'd like to have a way to open a file (or application) on a specified display on a case by case basis. I know that I can assign an application to open on a specific display by right-clicking on the app in the dock and selecting options->assign to. The problem with this is that it's a global change. When I'm working on school work, I usually like to have reference material (pdfs, wepages, etc) open on the external display while I'm working in Word on the MBPs monitor.
What I'd like to be able to do is right click on the file (or app) and use a context menu item to open the item on a specific display. Does anyone know of an automator action/applescript/terminal command to create a context menu item like this?
Thanks.

I use "Open Terminal Here" script for that:

From the Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Extensions tab. Turn that OFF, quit and relaunch Safari to test.
If that helped, turn one extension on then quit and relaunch Safari to test until you find the incompatible extension then click uninstall.

How to access data selected through a cascading pulldown menu?

Hi,
I'm having the hardest of times trying to get my cascading pulldown menu to do what I want. The problem being is that from the original menu selection the user is able to cascade 2 levels down so by the time he/she actually releases the mouse button the menu item that is selected is something like this:
with "object" being the top level menu selection:
object->color->blue
or
object->shape->triangle
etc..
So now the problem is that I need to be able to display on the front panel what the user selected WITHOUT making a string indicator in each case. I want to be able to have just one string indicator for each level of the pull down so one would display: shape or color and the other w
ould display the actual color??? Please there has to be an easy way of doing this! I have looked through all the menu example and I can't find anything on cascading menus, Thanks in advance,
Alex

Hi,
Either you misunderstood or I misunderstood your answer. After reading the LabVIEW manual it seems that the use of local variables will solve my problem. My question was basically how can I have 1 front panel display object display values that can be set in different places in the VI, so I think I can do it with local variables. I just need to put say 4 local vairables , each in a separate case statement and have them all point to one front panel indicator. Let me know if you think this is the correct way of doing it,
Alex

What's up with the Develop Safari menu item?

I recently noticed on this MBP a Safari menu tab labeled "Develop" which is located between the Bookmarks and Window menu items.
On my other MBP there is no such menu item.
I have the Apple developer installed on both boxes, so that's not necessarily the reason.
Under this Develop menu item are such odd items as
Show Snippet Editor
Show Web Inspector
and many other interesting items.
Does anyone else have this item and if so, how did it get there?
I just found out the answer myself.
It's selectable in the Preference->Advanced menu
Try it - it's interesting.

As far as I can make out the Develop menu replaces the old Debug menu. The Debug menu was somewhat arcane, requiring a 3d-party utility program or a Terminal command to make it appear. In early versions of Safari, I believe there was a means to send Safari bug reports to Apple (now moved to the Safari menu).
I used Debug mostly for websites that didn't recognize or weren't compatible with Safari. The User Agent option, that allows Safari to address websites as if it were a different browser, was very helpful. There was a period of several months, before my bank geared up for Safari, when I had to pretend to be using IE in order to access my account. There is still the occasional page that works best with IE, but that's becoming ever more rare.
In the current OS 10.5.4 (Safari 3.1.2), the Terminal command no longer activates the Debug menu. And, the User Agent option appears in the new Develop menu. Also, the Develop menu is neater, i.e., fewer, better-organized options and nicer windows. Finally, as you note, it's more-easily accessible, from within Safari itself, so I assume it represents Apple's most-recent conclusion as to how to deal with these "hidden" features that most users will never need.

How do I create my own favorite template for DVD slideshows? I used to be able to select this from pulldown menu, but cannot now do so. I am directed straight to templates, which take more memory. I have a large slideshow, and need all the space I can get

First, how do I create my own favorite theme template for DVD slideshows? I used to be able to select this from pulldown menu, but cannot now do so. I am directed straight to already existing themes, which take more memory. I have a large slideshow, and need all the space I can get. I just want to use a picture as my DVD cover, and then insert a slideshow. Also, when I try to burn my 8.5gb double sided slideshow, all that burns is the music. It is a large slideshow, a memorial on the life of my now deceased brother. This means a lot to me and to my family, and I am having so much trouble trying to burn it. I have gone into Project View and selected appropriately. The bar shows I have room to burn this DVD, but it does not burn. I have burned so many DVDs in the past, but this one just will not burn. I am so confused at this point. I will say this is the first 8.5gb I have attempted to create and burn. My specs list a 7.7gb or 4.7gb as operable....but there are no 7.7gb dvds. I had to purchase 8.5gb. Help? What am I doing wrong? I have spent so much time on this, and just cannot figure it out.

Final Cut is a separate, higher end video editor. The pro version of iMovie.
Give iPhoto a look at for creating the slideshow. It's easy to assemble the photos in an album in iPhoto, put them in the order you want and then make a slideshow of them. You can select from various themes and transitions between slides and add music from your iTunes library.
When you have the slidshow as you want use the Export button at the bottom of the iPhoto window and export with Size = Medium or Large.
Save the resulting Quicktime movie file in your Movies folder.
Next, open iDVD, choose your theme and drag the QT movie file into the menu window being careful to avoid any drop zones.
Then follow this workflow to help assure the best qualty video DVD:
Once you have the project as you want it save it as a disk image via the File ➙ Save as Disk Image menu option. This will separate the encoding process from the burn process.
To check the encoding mount the disk image, launch DVD Player and play it. If it plays OK with DVD Player the encoding is good.
Then burn to disk with Disk Utility or Toast at the slowest speed available (2x-4x) to assure the best burn quality. Always use top quality media: Verbatim, Maxell or Taiyo Yuden DVD-R are the most recommended in these forums.
The reason I suggest iPhoto is that I find it much easier to use than iMovie (except for the older iMovie 6 HD version). Personal preferences showing here.

How do I change stills with each menu item selected?

Hi all.
I am trying to create a menu (with 10 items) which contains one single dropzone box, which will contain a still that changes with each menu item selected (instead of 10 different stills next to each item).
I have absolutely no idea how to achieve this! Do I create a different menu for each item? Is there a way to have a slideshow within the menu that changes with each item selected?
Please help!
Many thanks
James

THe way to do what you want to do is layered menus which have some limits
http://dvdstepbystep.com/layersover.php
What you would do is change the item that appears in the same section - in other words there would be ten layers with a diffrerent picture in the same exact spot, the rectangle buttons sections do not need to be over the picture section
http://dvdstepbystep.com/Layers_Example.dmg is a project that does changing images.

I want to get rid of the Bing screen but there is no "menu at the top of the Firefox window" for me to "select Tools and then select the Add-ons menu item. "

I suddenly have a "Bing" screen when I sign onto Firefox---and I want to get rid of it. The support section of Firefox says
1. "From the menu at the top of the Firefox window, seledt Tools and then select the Add-ons menu item."---but I see no "menu item" nor Tools, much less Add-ons.
2. "In the Add-ons window, click on the Extensions panel."---but how do I find the Add-ons window?
3. Find the Bing Bar and Search Helper Extension in the list and click Disable for each of them."---but what and where exactly is that?
At the top of the screen is only a Yahoo icon on the left and to the right of it a search box, "Web Search,", "My Apps," Yellow Pages," "Weather," "Updates," and "Skype." to the right of those there is a green cross saying "Add more apps. to your toolbar" and to the right of that a sort of gear shift looking icon saying "toobar settings."
So, in short, how do I get rid of the Bing screen and how do I access those Tools?
Thanks.

To get rid of Bing Search Window..............
Click on View tab / Tools and un-check 'Search' (alias for 'Bing')

I can using AirPrint from safari and email to my hp printer but do not get print as an option from the pulldown menu from the new york times and other apps. How can I print directly from these apps?

I can't seem to print directly from apps like the new York times. Print is not an option from the pulldown menu. Print to my hp printer works fine from safari and email though and from some other apps. Do some apps not permit printing? That doesn't right.

You can ask the NY Times why not.
Standard behavior is that Airprint always works with iBooks, Mail, Photos, and Safari. Apps are up to their author.
