HTML - Drop Down Menu - Text Wrapping

Hi there

Anyone know how to force a long piece of link text to wrap on to the next line. Only seems to be a problem in FireFox. Here is the offending page:

By the way, the content is generated by the client via content management, otherwise I would stick in a <br />.

Thanks,

Hello what is the HTML code for text wrapping,

As whenever I put a html banner link to amazon, it puts it on the next line down

And I would like it to appear at the side of text.


So what is the html code for text wrapping?

Thanks James

Hi. I've been trying and failing at wrapping text around a mixpod playlist widget. [The widget is in a draft post I'm working on in a blog, not installed as a sidebar gadget.] I'm not technical, and the widget is "flash" technology which befuddles me even further. Fiddling with <div> and "align" codes, I was able to type in text next to the widget, but only in the editor page of Blogger...once I previewed or published it, the text appeared below the widget.

I would very much appreciate anyone's ideas. The widget code is:

<embed border="0" flashvars="mycolor=5C1400&amp;mycolor2=baac8f&amp;mycolor3=450101&amp;autoplay=false&amp;rand=0&amp; f=4&amp;vol=100&amp;pat=0&amp;grad=false" height="382" name="myflashfetish" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" quality="high" salign="TL" src="http://assets.mixpod.com/swf/mp3/mff-nano.swf?myid=76126179&amp;path=2011/01/26" style="height: 382px; visibility: visible; width: 165px;" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="165" wmode="transparent"></embed>

Thank you.

I'm making a form that contains three places for the user to enter text. The first two are for taking only one line of text, but the third is a bigger input for taking in multiple paragraphs of text. The trouble is, I can't get this third one to wrap the text!

Is there a way to turn word wrapping on for an input bar? Or should I be using a different form element?

I've found some help here already, so thanks in advance to the good folks that help us novices.

I have just a couple that need addressing, but they're pretty important to me, so hopefully someone can spell them out.

I'll explain them below but here's a quick rundown first:
1.) Wrapping text around a captioned image
3.) A pop-up text bar when a link is moused over.

1.) When I'm posting an image, a caption is almost always necessary. Here's the code I've been using for the image and caption:
"<table class="image">
<caption align="bottom">CAPTION</caption>
<tr><td><IMAGE LINK></td></tr>
</table>"
But when I post like that, there's a break between paragraphs to show the image, which disrupts the reading flow. I need a code that will let me post an image, add a bottom-aligned caption, and still have the story text appear alongside the image.
NOTE: I've been shown the "align=left/right" code, but where do I insert that in the code listed above?? I've tried right before and right after the image source code, but to no avail. Help, please!!

2.) I'm willing to spend hours to learn this one. Somebody, somebody has to know how to do this one. It's done on this site!
OK, here it is.
You mouse over a post listing, and a text bar appears next to the cursor. In that bar is the first few lines of the person's post.
HOW IS THIS DONE???
For someone looking to find new ways to boost hits on a news site, this is a priceless gem. If anyone knows how to do this or something similar in HTML, PLEASE let me know.


Thanks in advance to each and every person who reads this, and a special thanks to those who take the time to help. It means much.

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?

Good day guys... is there anyone who can share about drop down menu's

Id like to do a drop down menu similar to there's... is there any simple way of doing this?!

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.

Hey guys, I need help making a drop down menu.

I know how to make a basic one, but this is what I need...


I want to have 4 drop down menus, with about 4 choices in each one.

Under them I need a 'Submit" button.

Basically, I need it so that any combination of the 4 choices in the 4 menus will open a specific page.

For instance, lets say in menu 1 I pick the word "cat". In menu 2, I pick the word "dog". In menu 3 I pick the word "car". In menu 4 I pick the word "tree".

Once I click submit, a page with a picture of a cat, dog, tree and car would open up. (I would provide all the possible different pictures).


So how would one do this?

Any help is GREATLY appreciated, thanks!

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.

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

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
