HTML - Anyway To Link Drop Down Lists To Each Other Using Html?
Hello All,
Sorry to ask for help on my first visit. Is there any way to link drop down lists to each other using html? For example, the first drop down list would have states/counties. Once they select one, on the second drop down list it automatically generates all the towns in that county/state. It's meant to be part of a form for a website. Many thanks to all Similar TutorialsI have some drop down list tests I am playing with he http://www.my-plague.net/list.php There are a few thing I need help with: 1) If I don't put a "select" url, if go is clicked on I get a server error. I just want it to do nothing. e.g. with the header. 2) If I put a style for a "select" that has no url, then the list reverts to a square more box-like shape. 3) I want to make the go button open the urls in a new window. 4) I don't know what the js code at the end does because it still works without it (found the code in a tutorial) : Code: <script language="JavaScript"> <!-- function gotoLink(form) { var OptionIndex=form.ListBoxURL.selectedIndex; parent.location = form.ListBoxURL.options[OptionIndex].value;} //--> </script> I'm developing a website that contains a lot of legal statutes. I'm trying to keep to html lists rather than using tables, but have come unstuck with how to display custom numbers in an ordered list. The lists usually begin with (1), then (a) is the indent, then (i) is the next level. These are easy to handle with <ol type=1>, <ol type=a> and <ol type=i>. The next level has (aa), which I've managed with <li value=27> and so on. However, I'm not certain how to handle the following types: (4A) - in between the number (4) and (5) and random numbers, such as (aE), etc. With regard to numbers like (4A), they need to be in the same bracket and can't be displayed as (4)(A) - which is a different reference in the legislation. Any help in displaying custom numbers (even user defined - e.g. for this particular bullet point display "4A") would be great. Thanks in advance. I have several links on my site, all in the form of <a href="http://www.mywebsite.com">mywebsite</a> How do I need to change it such that a new instance of the browser is used in which the linked site is displayed. I've looked all over the web and can't find an effective way to do this. Can someone please help? I need to make text drop down menus when you mouseover my links. This is a perfect example: http://www.stpatrick.org/ Thanks a lot! Hello, I have a html page and a drop down menu on top. The drop down menu is for like users. The user has to pick their role and based on that, the page will only show some parts of the content. So I have the drop down on top (e.g Developer, Editor, etc) and based on what they pick, hide the contents that they're not supposed to see. Is this possible with HTML? What do I need to do? Hi All, I've been asked to make some hyperlinks that automatically select items in a drop down menu in a contact form. Is this possible if so, how is it done Thanks in advance Bluestreak hello i have a page 'gallery.html' that i want to show up when the URL www.site.com/gallery is requested. how do i achieve this? thanks in advance rlbw So I'd like to have a 160*600 box with hyperlinks displaying only a headlines I select. I would like the bottom of the box to have arrows for navigating between sections of links that fit in the box with a place to enter a page number in between them. I would like it to begin with displaying the most recently posted links starting on the last page number with that being the first page it displays. I want the bottom of the box to include below the browsing chronological browsing feature an arrow facing left with the word "search" that would open a box with a place to type in text for it to search link headlines. At the bottom of the search box I would like an arrow facing down with the words "search by label". Yes, I would like to not only select a headline for each link but also categorically label them. If I could also select images for it to automatically fill the empty space with when a new page number is started that would be great, even better if it selects ones that fill the most depending on how long the headlines are. If it repeated headlines in extra page space instead of showing images that would be cool too. I'd also like it to automatically expand in height past 160*600 to make a new page number just for a headline that doesn't fit in 160*600. I need this in HTML. My blog is episin.blogspot.com Hello everyone, im very sorry if i am reposting this question, i have tried to find the answer on the forum with no luck.

I know how to create drop-down boxes in forms, though what I want is that each variable in the drop-down box should go to a different URL. For example, if someone selects "variable 1" and then clicks submit, it should go to a different URL than when they select "variable 2" and click submit. I have all the URL's, though I'm just not sure of how to make each variable go to a different URL. Can someone help me out with this? If anyone knows of a site which has something similar like this can you please direct me to it so that I can look at he source? Thanks. Hi! I hope you guys can help with what is wrong here. Ive been slaving over this html trying to get it to work and I gave up. Heres my problem. I have two drop down menus on this page. However the right drop down menu only goes to a page from the menu on the left. I have them separated, Brazil and Romania, so the Romania menu links pull up one of the Brazil pages and I dont understand why because in the html I have clearly specified the links to go to different pages. I will attach the html used and ask someone to please point out the source of this html conflict. hi everyone, i'm having trouble figuring out when i do the drop down box whatever the person selects how do i pass that as a parameter into java script or can i put the drop down box in the java script?

I have a horizontal top navigational menu and wish to add a drop down menu. When I select the entire menu and click on properties I can add a vertical menu item, but it is not an actual drop down. when I copy the html from another site that does have a functioning drop down, it does not work. So this is what it looks like: <div id="runner"> <ul id="MenuBar1" class="MenuBarHorizontal"> <li><a href="page1.html">page 1</a></li> <li><a href="page2.html">page 2</a></li> what shoudl the code look like to add a drop down menu to each of these pages? Or should I do something in my spry menu? Can anyone help me with this? Hi Peeps, I have created a table of 24 football teams with links to all their forums so other people can link up with fans from around the country and talk football. However I realise that some of these teams have upto four forums. I would like to keep the table as it is and create some kind of drop down where the names of the forum drop down. Is it possible to create some sort of drop down in a table and can someone point me in the right direction so I might create one. Here is the page: http://www.freewebs.com/jonnibravo/l...forumsmain.htm Hi! I would like to create a drop down menu in HTML where the user can choose many options, not possible in simple HTML?
