HTML - Tooltip For Dropdown In Html
I have a drop down box of a fixed width. That drop down box needs to contain some values that are longer than the desired width. I'm happy for those values to be truncated, but I would like to display the full text in a tooltip (one that I could format to be a multi-lined one) as the option is hovered over (not after you select an option).
Does anyone know if there's an event that's generated when scrolling through the options of a drop down box? Similar TutorialsI am trying to build a simple, compliant HTML dropdown menu that allows users to click a "go" button which will act as a link to a new page. In my site a user rolls down to the correct state and then hits the go button. This sends the user to a web page for that state. Maybe what I'm trying to do is so easy that nobody ever thought to explain it. But I can't find an answer anywhere. Here is a basic version of my code. Thanks in advance for any help!!!!! Code: <form action=""> <select name="states"> <option value="alabama.html">Alabama</option> <option value="Alaska.html">Alaska</option> <option value="Arizona.html" selected="selected">Arizona</option> </select> <input type="submit" value="Go"> </form> Hello all, I have created a dropdown list in a form using the <select> tag. My question is, is there any way to have that dropdown list display a different <option> as the default option when the page loads? The default option right now is always whatever option is the first one in my code. EX. <select> <option value="1">1</option> //by default this first option shows up on page load <option value="2">2</option> <option value="3">3</option> //can I have this option show up instead by default? </select> Thanks in advance. Hey guys Was hoping someone could help me with a little HTML problem. I have two pages - lets call them home and page1. On page1 i have a dropdown list with products in it and on the home page i have a list of "popular products" (which are included in the dropdown list). I am trying to make it so that when a customer clicks one of the "popular products" from the homepage, it links them to page1 and automatically selects the product from the dropdown. The name of the dropdown menu is "products" so i tried using the link "page1.html#products#product1" but this just links to page one and nothing else. Yet if the link is "page1.html#products" then it links to page1 and highlights the products dropdown menu - but does not select anything. I would really appreciate any help with this. thanks mckeegan375. I am just getting back into html and im already having a few problems.

I have a tooltip script for the product pages on my website. Here's an example (put your mouse over the 2 small pictures near the bottom of the page): http://www.ivoog.com/scooters/milan The problem is, as you can see, the tooltip thats shows ups blinks rapidly when your mouse is over the tooltip (it should display under or over, but sometimes the mouse goes over it). I know I should have found this before, and am now paying for it. How can I stop the tooltips from blinking when your mouse is over the pictures and the tooltips? Please help! Here's the CSS: http://www.pics.ivoog.com/page/tooltip.css Here's the javascript: http://www.pics.ivoog.com/page/htmltooltip.js What can I change? Thanks so much! http://testingbar.atspace.com/index-test.htm When clicking within the yellow highlighted parts of the calendar, a tooltip pop ups to the right. But I also want a smaller tooltip that appears when you mouseover the yellow areas in the calendar. That tooltip will only include the title (bold uppermost row) from the part when you click on the event. That tooltip should have 1px border width, 4px padding and the same green background color as the more detailed tooltip. Can someone help me with this? Hi, I am new to html hence I need the help. ok I have several links for other pages. When the mouse hovers over a link a small description is displayed on the webpage, where ever I want but probably at the bottom of the page. Similar to a tooltip but actually located on the webpage rather than floating next to the arrow. thanks Can somebody please give me the HTML for making these tips pop up when the mouse hovers over an image or over some text?

Hi All, Is there any maximum length for tooltip for html tags? How can I determine the possible max length? Rahul.... Hey there! I am working on an xml browsing thingie that looks a bit like this: Code: ----------------------------------------------------------------- | Head | ----------------------------------------------------------------- | | | | | | | | | | | | | menu | content | | | | | | | | | | ----------------------------------------------------------------- So far, everthing works as intended. Then, I added a JavaScript that shows a tooltip when hovering over the menu-entries - working fine in FireFox, but broken in IE. The strange problem: The tooltip is behind the menu, but in front of the content! I think that this has to do with 1 of 2 things (or both): IE being unable to interpret z-indizes and the needed file/div structure, which looks as follows (leaving out most style information) Code: --- index.htm --- <html> <head> </head> <body> <div id="ToolTip"></div> <iframe src="oldindex.htm"></iframe> </body> </html> --- oldindex.htm --- <html> <head> </head> <body> <frameset id="MainFrame" name="MainFrame"> <frame id="TopFrame" src="topframe.htm"></frame> <frameset id="ContentFrame" name="ContentFrame" cols="25%, 75%"> <frame id="menu" name="content" src="mymenu.xml"> <frame id="content" name="content" src="mycontent.xml"> </frameset> </frameset> </body> </html> Normally, I would add the <div> within the menu-frame.xml, but then it would be within that frame ONLY (resizing it) - so I had to create the div and the iframe before that (the div gets filled and shown/hidden dynamically by the javascript). This way, the div is "global" and should be shown completely - but in fact, in IE7 it's the other way around: the rest of the tooltip is seen on the right content frame, but behind the menu frame. I tried a few workarounds, but none worked for me Any suggestions, probably? Huge thanks in advance, Martin Hi, Im trying to work out how to create a tool tip for mouse over of one of my buttons.

Thanks in advance I am making a website he http://musicalmadness.zymichost.com/index.htm In the links on the left there is a page called "Solo Albums" - this is the page I'm having trouble with. As you can see, I've made tooltips over the images listing the tracks of the albums. I've decided to make them position underneath the image. However, when they are activated they are shifting the entire page around. Is there a way to make it so they simply appear OVERLAYING the rest of the page? PLEASE look at CSS. Thank you! Hi guyz, i have a query Mouse over the datagrid cell display tooltip or panel to display information but only using HTML and CSS not using javascript. can anyone help me. because im gonna use it on htmleditor on c# desktop application thax before Hi guys, i have problem with my dropdown menu and IE7. Site is -> http://www.blisscupcakecafe.com/4/ When u hover on about us button it appears submenu/dropdown. But in IE7 its behind that AJAX slideshow/slider. So in all browser its ok but on IE its broken Also when i hover About Us from left or right its inline menu instead of block ? Thanks in advance So for a while a have been trying very hard to create a dropdown menu for my navigation bar. I have searched the web long and hard for this and found little valuable information. I have a four link graphical navigation bar made from image sprites (see this tutorial) and have been trying to make a dropdown bar for just the second link. I know a bit of html/css but very little javascript which if I understand what I read from google, thats what I will need. Can anyone help please? I'm aware that the menu in my site can get too-big to display properly at low to medium resolutions and/or browser windows that aren't maximized, so after considering a couple of possible solutions i figured i'd fix it by putting everything into five general categories, two of which would have subcategories (and some of the subcategories would have subsubcategories, and that's as far as it goes). So... ...I'm looking for a code to turn my menu into a dropdown one. Now, as far as i'm concerned there are three types of dropdown menus, two of which i don't like and thus don't want. Google only returns results for one type, which, true to Murphy's law, is one of the two i don't want. Example of the one i want: the one on the top menu on this site ("HOME", "TUTORIAL", "FORUM", "QUICK LIST") (with possibility of images and that kind of stuff) Example of the one i don't want that Google returns: the kind on this site (default computer type) Example of the one i don't want that Google doesn't return: the kind that appears when you click on "Search", "KotV Roster" or any of those links on this site (forum type) I tried to copy the relevant code on the first page i linked to, but either i didn't copy all that's relevant or i'm doing something wrong with it. I considered both possibilities and tried to fix things, but all failed. So how do i do it? Here's a rough picture of exactly what i want: click. I hope the notes and pictures are enough, but if something is unclear please ask away. Sorry for the weird font, but i didn't pay much attention to how the whole thing looked; it's just a quick sketch i made in two minutes. Thanks in advance. |
