HTML - Drop Down Menus
I'm trying to incorporate drop down menus into a template to clean things up a bit but I can't figure out how. Here's the code:

I've got to the point where i need some help. So please if you could help me in the most basic language that would be great. How can i create a drop down menu or navagation bar. vertically The website in question is www.hyspeedbroadband.com I would also like it to stay in the same style as it already is. As a little side question also. I changed the navagation bars position, now when you click on different pages the navagation bar does not underline which page you are on. If I could have some assisstance on how that can be corrected that would be great to. Thank you for any help and replys Ok, I've managed to get my drop down menu relatively sorted. The final version will have significantly more options, but for editing purposes each only has 2 options right now. With my limited HTML knowledge, I've managed to get all the boxes lined up left, and in the right order and the such, but there are still a few things I would like this menu to do before it is finished, and I have no idea how to do them. Hopefully someone can help This is what I have at the moment: Quote: <html> <body> <div align="left"> <select name="QB"> <option value="QB">Player A - 80</option> <option value="QB">Player B - 65</option> </select> <select name="RB1"> <option value="RB1">Player C - 64</option> <option value="RB1">Player D - 42</option> </select> <select name="RB2"> <option value="RB2">Player C - 64</option> <option value="RB2">Player D - 42</option> </select> <select name="WR1"> <option value="WR1">Player E - 35</option> <option value="WR1">Player F - 32</option> </select> <select name="WR2"> <option value="WR2">Player E - 35</option> <option value="WR2">Player F - 32</option> </select> <select name="TE"> <option value="TE">Player G - 37</option> <option value="TE">Player H - 29</option> </select> <select name="K"> <option value="K">Player I - 20</option> <option value="K">Player J - 18</option> </select> <select name="DST"> <option value="DST">Team A - 35</option> <option value="DST">Team B - 33</option> </select> </div> </body> </html> That does what I want, could be hideously wordy and untidy in the code, idk, but it works lol What I would like instruction on are the folloing steps if possible: 1) I would like a small box to the left of each drop down menu that remains the same. For example, I'd like a box that says "QB" then to the right of it immediately is the QB drop down menu. A bit like <TH> function works on a table I believe? I just have no idea how to put it into the code so it doesn't throw it all over the place 2) Some positions, like the RB and WR, have 2 positions. However, both drop down box player lists will be the same. Is there any way to stop WR1 and WR2 from being the same player? A player can't be used more than once, so is there a way to make sure the player in each box is never the same? 3) As you can see, each player has a value. At the moment, the player and the value are one constant line of text "Player A - 80". What I'd really like is for this to be split, so that a running team unit total can be kept at the bottom. That way a user will be able to see the total unit value of their team, and it will alter as they alter their line up. I'm sure the player value somehow needs to be its own specific bit of code for this to happen, it can't be coupled with a players name, but I've no idea how to do this either. I really hope someone can help me out here, would be of great use to me. All I need are some pointers and I'll try and work my way through it as best I can. Thanks, you guys are great I have a form with 3 drop down menus on the same line. The way I would like it to work is as follows: if I choose for example element 3 on the first menu then the 2nd menu shows only the options of the element in menu 1. How can I do this? Thnks Hi all I am completely stuck as to what to do here. I have a drop down list that I want a different html table to display depending on the option chosen on the drop down list.

I have a question about drop down menus I am trying to implement on a new hockey website. Basically, I am using the html below. Everything is fine, except with this code, every time an item is selected, it opens in a new window. How can I alter this code so that selections DO NOT open a new window, and instead just direct readers straight to the desired link? <select name="menu" onchange="window.open(this.options[this.selectedIndex].value,'_blank')"><option> Basic Stats</option><option value="http://wildwood365.blogspot.com">Games</option><option value="http://wildwood365.blogspot.com">Goals</option><option value="http://wildwood365.blogspot.com">Assists</option><option value="http://wildwood365.blogspot.com">Points</option></select> Programs ----------------------- Photoshop CS4 Dreamweaver CS3 ----------------------- Anyways I used photoshop to make most of the site image, slice it up made it to a HTML and images file.

I searched the internet and tried fireworks and I couldn't find a solution that worked for me. I can get a regular drop down menu to work but I can't get one to work with a rollover image. I want to set it up like nvidia.com. Does anyone have a solution to my problem? Hello all! I want to have a page with multiple drop-down menus. The user will select for example "type of car" and a drop-down menu of 3-4 colors will appear... And then, if the user selects one of these colors, another drop-down menu will appear with the available brands of cars for the respective colour... Can you give me hints on how to start? I need to be able to add a few more tabs on the navigation bar. But, it keep adding the 4th tab as a dropdown submenu for the 3rd tab.

Anyhow it's all pretty new to me so I need a little help! On this page: http://www.thinking-forward.co.uk/st...loss-leaflets/ there is a "sort by" field above the flyer images. They serve no purpose so i'd like to remove them, except I don't know where the code is being called from. Can anyone shed any light? Thanks in advance!! On my site www.BlackberryOS.com/forums/ if you click the 'forums' tab, it shows a drop down menu..What i would like to do is take the headers (in the dark blue) and have those only appear when the tab is clicked. Then if you click on one of the Section names ( ie..Blackberry Devices), once you click that it creates/slides out a side menu that appears with the break down of the section... Is this possible? A mod/hack for this? Hi there I checked through a bunch of this forum but I can't find anything on this topic. If it's already been addressed, I'd be thankful if you could point me to the thread. If not, this is my problem.... I need to have 2 drop down menus in the same form, so that when the user clicks submit (OK in this case) both selected fields are posted.... Code: <form method="post" action="show.html"> <table> <tr> <td>Select a color</td> <td><select name=color"> <option value="red">red</option> <option value="green">green</option> <option value="yellow">yellow</option> <option value="orange">orange</option> <option value="purple">purple</option> <option value="blue">blue</option> </select> </td> </tr> <tr> <td>Select a shape</td> <td><select name=shape"> <option value="circle">circle</option> <option value="square">square</option> <option value="triangle">triangle</option> <option value="hexagon">hexagon</option> </select> </td> </tr> <tr> <td><input type="submit" value=" OK "></td> </tr> </table> </form> This code displays the drop downs perfectly but only the color is being posted to show.html It's something small but I can't figure this one out. I'm not sure if you can even have 2 drop downs with 1 submit button. Any and all assistance is greatly appreciated! Perkie 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! Hey guys I'm really stumped I'm just starting this project and so far all I have is a javascript/css drop down menu I'm tweaking and a flash slide show. Right now I'm having 2 problems. #1 my menus are getting overlapped by the flash, I keep trying a z-index on the div I have in the flash, but it isn't working. #2 I'm having problems positioning the div which the flash is contained by. For example I tried centering the div with css and it was to no avail. I had to put <center></center> around the whole div to achieve this. If anyone could help that would be amazing, check out www.atlanta-web.com Thanks, Hi guys, I've been frustrated for awhile trying to fix three of my problems. I just started making a site for myself today, the specific one is http://www.bcsticketsnow.com/rosebowl.html Anyway, I've got three problems, and appreciate any help anyone can offer on any of them: 1. I'm new to frames, and am told to stay clear of it. But I don't know php, so this is the only way I know to make a header, middle and footer on all 20 pages that I'm going to have where I only need to edit one to change all. So I have 3 frames in the frameset, header, mainrosebowl, and footer. I understand that cols="220,*,100" will make the header 220 pixels, the footer 100 px, and the middle part the rest of the window. But I'm trying to figure out a way to have it go deeper than the window. As you can tell, I've got a scroll bar on that middle frame. I want that frame to extend to more than 100% and push the footer below the visible window. So I'm really looking for a big scroll bar for the entire window to scroll down, not a mini scroll bar just for the middle frame. Is this possible? Having the cols add up to only the size of the window isn't what I'm looking for. 2. In the header frame, I've got that drop down menu (says "Bowl Events"). When I put the form in for the drop down menu, it kind of expanded the height of the table. It had less space before in that row of the table with the blue background. When I put the form in there, it kinda messed up the spacing. I essentially want to delete that space below bowl events to make the height of the row of that table like half the size. Any ideas? 3. For that same drop down menu, I'm trying to target each link in that menu to open up a new window (like target="_top"). But putting it after <option value="URL" target=..."> does nothing. Am I supposed to put it in the javascript? Here's what I have now: <script type="text/javascript"> function goToPage(dd) { var ind = dd.selectedIndex; if (ind == 0) { return; } var url = dd.options[ind].value document.location=url; } </script> <form> <select name="eventlist" onChange="goToPage(this); return false;" size="1" style="border: 0; BACKGROUND: navy; COLOR: white; FONT-FAMILY: arial; FONT-SIZE: 15px; font-weight: bold;"> <option value="">Bowl Events</option> <option value="http://www.bcsticketsnow.com/bcschampionship.html" onclick="header.location.href='_top'">BCS Championship</option> <option value="http://www.bcsticketsnow.com/rosebowl.html">2009 Rose Bowl</option> <option value="http://www.bcsticketsnow.com/orangebowl.html">2009 Orange Bowl</option> <option value="http://www.bcsticketsnow.com/fiestabowl.html">2009 Fiesta Bowl</option> <option value="http://www.bcsticketsnow.com/sugarbowl.html">2009 Sugar Bowl</option> <option value="http://www.bcsticketsnow.com/chickfilabowl.html">2009 Chick-Fil-A Bowl</option> <option value="http://www.bcsticketsnow.com/capitalonebowl.html">2009 Capital One Bowl</option> <option value="http://www.bcsticketsnow.com/cottonbowl.html">2009 Cotton Bowl</option> <option value="http://www.bcsticketsnow.com/holidaybowl.html">2009 Holiday Bowl</option> </select></form> I have a problem with my website basically I have a drop down menu and when you click on a specific name it should bring the name/catcode in the next box I have done a primitive example below also I have copied the html code from the page below some of them work and some dont which is really confusing me I havent got a clue what I have to do to get them all to work. I would really appreciate any help or pointers. Example: Drop down menu catcode Action Force A LEGO L Below is part of the pages html which I think is causing the issue. <td style="background-color: #7f7f7f" valign="middle"> <table id="archiveSearch"> <tr> <td style="padding-right:10px"><img id="archiveSearchImage" name="archiveSearchImage" src="images/archiveSearch.gif" alt="Search Archive" width="144" height="37" border="0" /></td> <td style="padding-right:10px"> <select id="categoryDropDown" name="categoryDropDown" size="1" onchange="selectCategory(this)"> <!--<option value="Example" >Example</option>--> <!--<option value="Examples" >Examples</option>--> <option value="A-Team" >The A-Team</option> <option value="Action Force">Action Force</option> <option value="Bionic Six" >Bionic Six</option> <option value="Buck Rogers">Buck Rogers</option> <option value="COF" >Cinema of fear</option> <option value="COTT">Clash Of The Titans</option> <option value="DC Comics">DC Comics</option> <option value="GIJ" > G.I.JOE</option> <option value="LEGO"> LEGO</option> <option value="LOTR"> Lord of the rings</option> <option value="MASK"> M.A.S.K</option> <option value="MISC"> Miscellaneous</option> <option value="MOTU"> Masters Of The Universe</option> <option value="Rock Lords" >Rock Lords</option> <option value="Rocky" >Rocky</option> <option value="SMDM" > Six Million Dollar Man</option> <option value="Star Wars" >Star Wars</option> <option value="Super Heroes" >Super Heroes</option> <option value="Super Powers" >Super Powers</option> <option value="ThunderCats" >ThunderCats</option> <option value="TMNT" >TMNT</option> <option value="Transformers" >Transformers</option> <option value="Visionaries" >Visionaries</option> </select> </td> <td style="padding-right:10px"> <!--<input id="mostRecentButton" type="button" value="Most Recent" />--> <input id="catCode" type="text" style="width:45px" readonly="readonly" /> I am trying to add a popup menu to a button on my header that will have two options. I added a hotspot to the button image in Fireworks and made the menu etc, but when I place it in my html page nothing happens. Below is the line of code that displays my button. <a onmouseover="image2.src ='images/Header/OurServices_On.png';" onmouseout="image2.src='images/Header/OurServices_Off.png';" href="OurServicesIndivid.htm" target="_top"><img src="images/Header/OurServices_Off.png" name="image2" width="129" height="22" border="0"></a></TD> PS The button image is 'OurServices_On' or "OurServices_Off", basically the "On" button is shaded darker and it will apear when you hover over it. On a secondary note, I tried to add a popup menu with the dreamworks hotspot tool. I can add the hotspot fine, but everytime I hit "Ok" on the add-popupmenu dialog box, I get a error that states the following. Anyone know the answer to either of these problems? First off, I have designed one site ever and it's still in progress. I also have no basis in computer training other than graphic design. I am a total beginner, but the site I'm designing is for my personal business, so I'm continually updating it with new features I like. I was hoping to use hover menus (I have no idea if that is the technically correct term, but when you put your mouse over a link, it gives you a drop down menu) on my site, but really have no clue how to do that. Is it possible in HTML or would I have to use javascript or flash? If so how would I incorporate the code into a generally HTML based site? Thanks! :-) |
