I've got a content box made of cells. There is the title box and the content box. In the header, i'd like to place on the left site the content's title and on the right side, i would like to have a drop down menu. So far, so good.

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, I have a website built in HTML and CSS in DW CS4. 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?

I would like to create a drop down menu in HTML where the user can choose many options, not possible in simple HTML? Dharma 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 Hello, I am a newbie to html but am working on a company website. I am looking for help with the drop down nav bar. I want to have the bar justified underneath the part that you are hovering over (for example, when you hover over Douglas Cardinal, the words biography, philosophy, etc would be justified underneath. When you click portfolio, current projects, museums, etc would be justified under portfolio) http://www.djcarchitect.com/portfoli...tprojects.html Is this possible? Thanks!! I have created a custom html dropdown menu for my site. The thing is it looks perfect in Firefox 5.0 (for me it does anyway) and works just as expected but in other browsers such as Opera 10.60, Chrome 5.0.375.125, it doesn't work properly. and it works semi ok in IE 8. For example if I hover over one of the menu buttons in opera or chrome there is meant to be a drop down box, this doesn't show in Opera or chrome but does in IE? You can view the menu on my test site - http://www.themidwiferysanctuary.com/testsite/ There is more to the menu, you can use the following log in - Username: Jade Password 130489 Does anyone have any thoughts on how to get the dropdown compatiable with all (or most) browsers? I would post the code but it won't let me even when using the code tags.......... If you want to see the javascript code then please just let me know. Im not sure any of the above makes sense?? Thank you, Jade Good day guys... is there anyone who can share about drop down menu's 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 So, I am new to html, but I want my site to have a drop down menu, much like that of IBM's. http://www.ibm.com/us/en/sandbox/ver2/ Is this even possible with HTML?

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. 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...
