HTML - Drop Down Menu To Change Content?
On my website I am trying to make a drop down menu change a script below it. If you go to http://www.breezybucks.com/article/newtemplate and click on "Custom Order Prizes" on the left you should see a drop down menu and an amazon flash file below it. I want it to be so that when you change from "Video Games" to "Electronics", it will load another flash file (from an already made amazon script). Here is my script right now...
Quote: <select NAME="amazon"> <option>Video Games</option> <option>Electronics</option> <option>Books</option> </select> <Amazon Flash Script> <2nd Amazon Flash Script> Any idea how to do this? Similar TutorialsI've been researching changing the colour of an arrow in a standard drop down menu. It seems it isn't possible. With further research I found that the colour and roll over state is controlled by whatever windows theme you are using. I changed my theme a few times and this is correct. However, before I give up, just thought I'd ask... Does anyone know a way to change this with code? If not, is there a way to make your own drop down box which is cross browser compatible? I think it can't be done, prove me wrong get a bottle of rum Hey guys, I was wondering if anyone could help me? I wish to produce a website which works in the following way: The header and footer remain the same, and do not reload on page refresh. Then, links on a menu bar stimulate loading a new page, however only the content below the header changes. An example of this, is the CushyCMS website (http://www.cushycms.com). When you click the menu links, the header doesn't reload, only the page content does. How would I do this? My reason for wanting this method, is because I wish to have an image slider present within the header of all of my pages, and I don't wish to have to update every page each time I wish to add an image. Please help? Many thanks, Luke Ok, right, so I have some pictures in a table (Question1) and some text (Question2). Question 1 Is there a way of having a loading picture before the original image shows up? Question 2 Is there a way of having a loading picture before the text shows? This is only 'cause i would like some text that 'kinda looks like it's loading first, or a delay. I have an 'Agree' box on my website so that when people enter, they have to agree to certain terms first. Is there a way of having a checkbox underneath saying 'Do not show me this page again.' and when they select that, it stores a cookie or something so that they don't see the page again? The site: http://www.tc-ua.piczo.com/ Give me your comments and ideas. Thanks; ToshNeox I'm not sure how to explain this, but I hope someone can help me or point me in the right direction. I'd like to have a small side column on my website with content such as recent updates. Ideally, I'd like to be able change just one file and have that reflected on every page. Right now, I have to go through and update each page manually but I know there must be an easier way to do this. I'm thinking this is somehow related to RSS feeds but I don't really know much about them and I'm not sure if that's what I'm actually looking for. Can anyone offer any advice/tutorials/suggestions/help for a way to do this? The site I'm working on is located here and the section that I would like to be able to change that right column ("Recently Updated"). Hi, Is there any script or way to view/hide a div or similar tag only if you're on windows/mac/linux? I want a div to show if you're on windows/linux and an other if you're on a mac. Thanks in advance! 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? When I start adding the content to my website, it pops up on top of the menu and the logo in the top of the page? Do you know what I can do to get it under the menu?

Any help appreciated, thanks. Dear HTML Experts, I need your help, I would love to have a dropdown menu. Which drop out of a image? Like when your mouse is at the image, the menu shows up vertically? Thanks Hi All! I would like to make a drop down box with all the departments of my company. Basically the user would select a dept and without refreshing or opening a new page the information would appear below. I have seen this before using a database but is there a way to do it without? Hello All, I am new to coding and looking to self teach myself with the help of this forum so I can design my own web site. I am looking for the best solution for searching a database. The database will for example contain USA States and Cities with the final result being an item or thing etc. that the search criteria points to. Let's say for example I want to know where all the Dentists are in the State of Maryland. I found this example below and It creates the option to choose a state however how do you make it accept your choice once chosen and go to the next webpage for the next lookup or whatever you decide to have it do next. I guess what I am asking is how do you make a Search or Go button take you to your drop down search criteria. <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN"> <html><head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=unicode"> <meta content="MSHTML 6.00.2900.3429" name="GENERATOR"></head> <body><select name="state" size="1"> <option value="NA" selected="">Select A State</option> <option value="Blank">--------------------</option> <option value="AL">Alabama</option> <option value="AK">Alaska</option> <option value="AZ">Arizona</option> <option value="AR">Arkansas</option> <option value="CA">California</option> </select> </body></html> Thanks for any assistance... I am sure there is a simple answer to this I have the following drop down menu. HTML Code: <form> <select name="menu" style="font-family:'Arial';color:#FFFFFF;background-color:#000000;font-size:10pt;"> <option value="no link no action">title of menu</option> <option value="url 1">link 1</option> <option value="url 2">link 2</option> <option value="url 3">link 3</option> <option value="url 4">link 4</option> </select> <input type="button" onClick="location=this.form.menu.options[this.form.menu.selectedIndex].value;" value="GO" style="font-family:'Arial';color:#FFFFFF;background-color:#000000;font-size:10pt;"> </form> Here is a screen capture of what the menu looks like. It's at this point I want no action to take place when "go" is clicked. As it is now (above code) it refreshes current page. My question is how do I change this so that the first "option" has no action when chosen and then "go" is clicked. As is is right now it refreshes the current page being that between the quotes <option value=" HERE ">title of menu</option> there isn't a link because I don't want this option to do anything. Basically when the drop down menu shows "title of menu" and I click on "go" I want nothing to happen instead of a refresh. Hai everybody.. I want to create a html drop down menu.

In the select and value button , how can i use this array Hey, Kinda new to this so bare with me. Im using Trellian web page to do some updating on our companies' website and they just asked me to make up a sort of parts catalog for our inventory we have here. I thought the best way for the person visiting the website to find the parts they need is to have drop down menus.Ive been trying so hard to make this but i just keep failing. This is what i want to do. The first one would ask "Make..." they would click that and scroll down the list to find the Make of their machine. Once they click their machine, another drop down menu would appear underneath of that asking the model and the menu would contain all the models associated with the make of the machine. And i want to have another one appear under that once they click on the model. Is there anything or any place where i can find a nice tutorial on how to make this dream come true.....? something like this http://www.wengers.com/Parts/TractorParts.aspx Hi, Basically i have an index page with two frame, a navigation frame for the top and a main frame for the information, i have a drop down menu in the navigation frame. But the problem is, the drop down menu cant all bee seen when it drops over the main frame. Does anyone know a solution to this problem, i tried using an Iframe instead of normal frames, but that leaves a big gap between the end of the drop down menu and the start of the information. I have also tried using the <div> tags this also didnt help, i was wondering if there is a way to set the order in which the frames are displayed,so the navigation frame is displayed over the main frame. Any help would be great. Thanks for your time. mmarab. |
