Updating fireworks dropdowns menus in DW templates

hi again,
much like my last query really. i often use dreamweaver
templates with fireworks menus, i was wondering if there is a way
to update the menu in all of the docs based on the DW template by
just uploading the updated FW menu files? i.e. at the mo i have to
update the DW template with the new FW menu, then update all the
docs based on the template, then upload them all - mission!
all help appreciated,
cheers

This line is testing the value of user settable parameters.
That test will
succeed when the user has set the parameter called "id" to
"products" and
the parameter called "productSubsection" to "none".

Dropdown Menus in a Template

Hello,
Fireworks, Dreamweaver 2004 MX, OS X
I am having a problem with a dropdown menu, that is in a
template. The menu has to link to several directories:
admin (This is the root directory of the menu)
admin/home_page
admin/links/insert
admin/links/delete
etc.
I have built a menu in Fireworks, it works from the first
level of the directory but when in one of the higher directories,
for some reason, it seems to add directories in the URL that are
not there.
I am wondering if there is a problem in using the "edit in
Fireworks" button for a complex menus or if I have to detatch the
pages from a template and edit the links. (This would be
disappointing).
Thanks
Steve

However, the links don't work on the vertical side menu. (I have only one link set up to date on the horizontal menu but it does work.) I assume that the only link that works is
<li><a href="leanoperations.html">Lean Operations</a></li>
When you compare that to all of the other links that do not work
<li><a class="MenuBarItemSubmenu" href="../leanoperations.html">Lean Operations</a>
<ul>
    <li><a href="../leancourses.html">Creating a Lean Culture</a></li>
    <li><a href="../leanoperations.html">Creating Continuous Flow</a></li>
    <li><a href="../leancourses.html">Enterprise Resource Planning</a></li>
    <li><a href="../leancourses.html">Lean Kaizen Events</a></li>
</ul>
</li>
you will notice the different path
When I put the vertical side menu in the template and made it an optional region, I did get a warning message stating it should be in a locked region, but I'm not sure if that would be the issue. I've checked the code and it seems like the editable head region and the JS at the bottom of the page are ok. Sorry, I do not use DW's template system and cannot help. You might like to ask in the Dreamweaver Forum. You may want to have a look here for an alternative http://foundationphp.com/tutorials/sprymenu/ssi.php
Can two spry widgets be used in one template?
You can use as many as you wish.

Office 365: dropdown menus don't stay open + theme problem

Hello
I recently encountered some problems that make the Office 365 unusable. Could you help me figure it out?
Problems:
These problems appear in every office program: word, excel, power point...
Windows are in some very old 98 looking theme
Office programs appear to be in a window within a window (Image 2)
Dropdown menus in ribbon and in settings stay open less than a second - makes them unusable
Situation:
Office worked well for 2 months, then problems started
Graphic drivers are up to date
Windows is up to date
All the other programs work normally
No recent hardware changes
Comodo Internet Security installed recently
Automatic updates enabled for pretty much everything
When reinstalling, even the installation windows goes to 98 theme
My actions:
Selected default theme from control panel, no effect
Restarted, no effect
Reinstalled Office (Image 1), no effect
Disabled Comodo Internet Security, no effect
Tried running in safe mode, no effect
My setup:
Acer R7-572
Windows 8.1 Pro N
Office 365
I would post some screenshots, but seems that it is not allowed for me.
Any help is appreciated.

Hi,
Seems you've already tried lots of steps, including a complete reinstallation of Office, but to no avail. As per your description above, I'm thinking it might be something on Windows side that is interfering with Office product.
Have you ever tried to disable the hardware graphics acceleration in Office? Sometimes a recent updated video driver might be incompatible with Office. Please have a try and see if it helps:
Open any Office 2013 component, for example Word 2013, then go to FILE>Options>Advanced
Tick the option of "Disable hardware graphics acceleration" under the section
Display
If issue persists after the steps above, I would suggest we try to perform a clean boot in Windows and then verify result. This will help to determine whether any program conflict is causing the issue:

Hope this helps.

It's recommended to download and install
Configuration Analyzer Tool (OffCAT), which is developed by Microsoft Support teams. Once the tool is installed, you can run it at any time to scan for hundreds of known issues in Office

Xp home and IE already installed. Added firefox and javascript dropdown menus not working at all. Help please

I installed firefox on my laptop, vista and IE installed, and as yet have no problems. I decided to install firefox on my desktop with XP home and IE installed and it has created a problem. Before installing firefox I had javascript dropdown menus on my web site which I build and upload to my isp. Now I cannot get the dropdown menus to run at all on my desktop. I tried uninstalling firefox but it still doesn't work. Help would be appreciated even to get back to how it was before installing firefox.

Yes, there is a work around by doing a forced restore to a "new iPhone", and manually synching the apps, one by one. You still can't update or delete any of them without going through this again. The only real fix will be from Apple - hopefully in 2.1 which is rumored to be released later today...
If you read though these threads, you'll find some really excellent posts that will remind you of a 5 year old when he finds out that his new Batman suit doesn't make him fly.

How can I create secondary and tertiary dropdown menus whose choices are dependant on the parent?

Kind of a weird question; I know. I'm new to both the Adobe Developer forums, and to XMP in general.
Here's the basic gist of what I'm trying to do:
We've got a Group, Category, and Subcategory structure for a given variable. Obviously, the subcategories are unique to a particular category, just as the categories are unique to a particular group; so displayed as a tree:
I.     Group_1
          1. Category_1A
                    a. Subcategory_1Ax
                    b. Subcategory_1Ay
                    c. Subcategory_1Az
          2. Category_1B
                    a. Subcategory_1Bx
                    b. Subcategory_1By
                    c. Subcategory_1Bz
          3. Category_1C
                    a. Subcategory_1Cx
                    b. Subcategory_1Cy
                    c. Subcategory_1Cz
II.     Group_2
          1. Category_2A
                    a. Subcategory_2Ax
                    b. Subcategory_2Ay
                    c. Subcategory_2Az
          2. Category_2B
                    a. Subcategory_2Bx
                    b. Subcategory_2By
                    c. Subcategory_2Bz
          3. Category_2C
                    a. Subcategory_2Cx
                    b. Subcategory_2Cy
                    c. Subcategory_2Cz
The subcategories are unique to their categories; just as the categories are unique to their groups. In an effort to prevent garbage coming into the metadata, and because these groups, categories, and subcategories have already been defined, I'd like them displayed as dropdown menus; Once the user has selected a group for the file, the Category dropdown would appear (or become active) and display the Category choices available only to that group, and then do the same in terms of the Subcategory.
I'm guessing that I'll start with a closed choice, assign the values to the groups, and then write a function to display only the choices for that group in the category dropdown. Trouble is, I don't have a whole lot of JavaScript experience -- and the word I've seen tossed around in this area seems to be an Array -- so I'm wondering if I'm barking up the wrong tree. If anyone has some kind of direction to point me in, it'd be helpful.
I'm not looking for someone to do my work for me (that's missing the point) -- this is an exercise in learning XML, Some scripting, Flash Builder, and Javascript, and I'd really like to develop it entirely myself; because I am having fun!!
Many thanks,

Do you mean the stuff from here:
http://projects.nateweiss.com/nwdc/workcode.htm
If so, to be honest, don't ("use it", I mean).
It might have been a reasonable approach to this sort of thing ten years ago, but it's not a very good way of doing this sort of thing these days.
This sort of thing is pretty easy to knock together with some HTML, JQuery to do some JS stuff and a CFC behind the scenes.
Indeed just using some binds to <cfselect> tags would be a better approach.

How do I update Fireworks?

Just began reading the OnDemand book re DW. I have CS 5.5 Mac. Totally a beginner with it, so this is basic.
It appeared in random reading that Fireworks has a function in DW that a similar utility app has in GL: that is, converting images to web-ready formatting.
Whether that is correct or not, I wanted to see Fireworks but the Extension Manager told me I needed version 8. I then ran the updater but that has not yet solved the problem. There are a few Fireworks files but none open.
How do I update Fireworks to version 8?
Thank you.

You have got the latest version of Fireworks assuming you have CS 5.5 Master.
Please repost your question on one of the forums from here:
<http://forums.adobe.com/community/fireworks>
I would post the question on Fireworks forum because to optimize the pictures for WEB, you don't need any extensions.
Good luck.

After use and not even long use dropdown menus are blank, Firefox won't close.

For a couple of weeks after a short time of use dropdown menus are blank almost as if they have been lifted off the screen but I can see an imprint of where they should be.. Sometimes running the cursor over them seems to make them appear but not often.
When this happens I cannot close Firefox.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened

From your description, it seems that an add-on may me causing your issue. Follow the steps at [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] to test whether your extensions are causing this behavior. Reply back here with the results and with the name(s) of any extensions you have enabled.

Muse dropdown menus won't "hide" in design phase

Suddenly (since downloading v3.0), when I'm in design mode, ALL of my dropdown menus are showing. Before, they'd do that every time I made a change to the menu, but I could go onto my master page and click a menu item that DIDN'T have a dropdown and they'd go away so that I could design without having them "in my face." But now, they're just there and I can't seem to get rid of them. Anyone else having this problem? Is there something I can do to hide the dropdowns while I'm designing?

Yes. That and more.
I want the top menus to be horizontal, when I scroll over them, I want the sub menu to scroll down horizontally if there are more than one sub menu, it won’t do that.
All sub menus should drop down under the top menus so you can see three of them if there are there, four or five.
Currently if I have a top menu of five items each one has say three submenus under each top menu, when I scroll over the top menu the sub menu roll out horizontally and the other two don’t show up until I actually scroll over the one submenu then the other submenu pops out one at a time.
On top of all this the original post says menus won’t hide in design phase, making it all that much more frustrating.
For goodness sake “it it ain’t broke don’t fix it!” Don’t assume that if something is obvious to one person is obvious to everyone else.

How can I get my dropdown menus to work on Safari?

I am in a real bind here. The blog I use for my class I teach has dropdown menus, but these don't seem to work in Safari on iPad. They work just fine in Chrome, but our lovely school blocks the Chrome browser...Don't even get me started.
Is there something I could add to the code to get these menus to work in Safari on iPad?
The blog URL is stmlatin2020.blogspot.com
Thanks

Try this ...
Tap Settings > Safari > Advanced then make sure JavaScript is switched ON.
That site is not optimized for iOS devices. Only browsers on desktop computers suport CSS (drop down menus).

How to update Appraisal Override flag in the templates found in PHAP_ADMIN

Whenever a customized transaction is used for approving a Batch, the change should get reflected in the two templates found in standard transaction PHAP_ADMIN.
However, on changing the value of Appraisal override flag of the batch, the change is not reflected in the templates found in PHAP_ADMIN.
Is there any ABAP code available for updating Appraisal Override flag in PHAP_ADMIN templates?

Hi Siva,
I think there is no utility to create appraisals and update details from offline data for PMP.

Hierarchy selection using a dropdown in IP web template

Greetings,
Is it possible to have a dropdown on my IP template where I could see all the 0COSTCENTER stored hierarchies ?
What I'm really looking for is replicating the functionality of the dropwdown found in:
In the query - > Click on the Char - In Properties Window - Right Hand Side - Hierarchy Tab (which displays the hierarchies for the infoobject).
But i cannot find the template to view how SAP has done it there.
Br,
Henri

Hi Martin,
One easy way of solving is to include the WAD command TRANSFER_STATE at the end of all the Planning function / Sequence commands attached to the Button.
This will refresh the WAD layout without having to reenter the variable values if any.
The other Option is to reset all the variables associated with the execution of Planning function after every execution.
This can be included under Web template Properties so this happens after every refresh of the layout.
Hope this helps.
Regards.
Shafi.

4.x dropdown menus are FUBAR

Since the 4.x "upgrade" all dropdown menus and predictive popups go invisible a second after appearing. They are still there, just invisible. If you move you mouse pieces of it reappear but you have to make your choice real fast or just guess.
3.x was flawless. I was very happy with it and would like to go back to it. Is there any specific reversion path from 4.x back to 3.x? Or do I have to uninstall 4.x then install 3.x?

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