JavaScript - Change A Single Level Menu To Multi?
Hello everyone,
I run an educational website with a CSS/JavaScript based menu that is right now only single level. I am trying to convert it over to multi level. I have tried a few other multi level menus but I have done a lot of customization in terms of appearance for this current menu, so none of the new ones looked right. I was wondering if I could get some help? It seems simple, yet I can't figure it out. Here is the site: http://www.anthonyteacher.com Here is the CSS: http://www.anthonyteacher.com/wp-con...nk2L/style.css (see /* Main Menu */ ) Here is the JavaScript: http://pastebin.com/jx8zQJeA I'd appreciate any help! Thanks! ^^ (A) Similar TutorialsHi i am working on a website project.. in which i have like.. for the menu.. i have a horizontal menu.. with three tabs for eg...

Can i do this in javascript.. I need to do this using html , css or jquery.. How do i ... Please help me Hey everyone, I need some help with a function. I'm using ajax to grab a response from a PHP page, on success, the ajax sets a variable. After the line that calls the ajax function is the line the returns the variable (a global variable). Problem is, because the variable is returned right after the ajax function is fired, it doesn't give the ajax enough time to set the variable. The work around I've thought about would be using the ajax function as a variable, and returning that variable in the initial return line. Could anyone either help me with a better solution, or tell me what I'm doing wrong? Here's some code for reference: The function that will return the response I'm trying to collect: Code: function lt_ajaxGet(hash) {
var params = "hash=" + escape(encodeURI(hash));
makePOSTRequest('hash.php?get', params);
return ajax_response;
}
The ajax code: Code: if(http_request.status == 200){
ajax_response = http_request.responseText;
}
Hi, I would like to use the menu that is linked below. I implemented it on my website but I discovered that it can only go 2 levels deep. I would like it to go one more level and I think that would be done in the javascript but I can't tell for sure. Could someone steer me in the right direction? http://www.javascriptkit.com/script/...icalmenu.shtml Thanks! Rob I have a working code of 2 level horizontal tab menu....it is now onmouse over ,I want to convert it to onclick....can anyone help in this regard..

Hi friends, What I have been trying to achieve is, On my index.htm, I have a horizontal cell named "memberarea" which originally shows username & password input fields. After the user logs in, this area changes itself to a "Welcome Name, Lastname" field. I want that this cell displays again the username and password input fields in case of the session of the user has expired. I have tried it with the following code (within the Iframe in index.htm): ----------------------------------------- <script> if ("<%=session("LoginFirstName")%>" == "") { var m = " <p align="center"> <font style="font-size: 8pt; font-weight: 700" face="arial"> Username:</font> <span style="font-size: 1pt"> <input type="text" name="uid" id="uid" size="14" style="width: 65; height: 17; font-size: 8pt"></span><font face="arial" style="font-size: 8pt"> </font><font style="font-size: 8pt; font-weight: 700" face="arial">Password:</font><font face="arial" style="font-size: 8pt"> </font><span style="font-size: 1pt"> <input type="password" name="pwd" id="pwd" maxlength="10" size="14" style="width: 65; height: 17; font-size: 8pt"></span><span style="font-size: 1px"> </span> <input type="submit" value="Enter" name="B1" style="width: 35; height: 17; font-size:9px" onclick="return login()">"; window.parent.document.getElementById('memberarea').innerHTML=m; } </script> -------------------------------------------------- This code gives me the error that on the 12xx'the line (which does not exist-the whole code is 5xx lines). there is a ";" missing which I could not found. Any ideas how to achieve this? Thank you for your comments Hello Im after a very specific layout for my dropdown menu. Basically 3 menu boxes listed vertically in a table and then an iframe underneath. When a user selects an option in box 1 , i would like a specific list of options to be displayed in box 2 . The options shown in box 2 must be dependent on box 1 i.e. as the box 1 selection changes , so do the box 2 options. Same thing applies with box 3 - when the user changes box 2 , i would like a specific list of options displayed in box 3. Then when a selection is made in box 3 , i want a certain page to load in an iframe below the 3 boxes. If you could also populate each box with some sample data so i can replace it to fit my site as needed by myself :-) So in a nutshell:- User Clicks Box 1 --> Specific Options Appear In Box 2 User Clicks Box 2 --> Specific Options Appear In Box 3 User Makes A Choice In Box 3 --> Specific Page Loads In Iframe Below (Already Got This Bit Figured Out) Help much appreciated on this. I eagerly await a response :-) I have a scenario where I show a drop-down-with-few-items in a JSP page, to the user. The length of few options in the drop down is greater than that of the drop down's, hence our requirement is to show the hovered (not selected) option as tooltip for user's convenience. I am not able to use title attribute for displaying tooltips in my browser. Now the code in http://dossett.org/11/No_onmouseover_for_options_in_IE/ implements a tooltip for multiple select drop down menu.Can you modify the code for single select Why can I not change the initial picture from the menu? If I remove the initial image, the menu works as needed. However, when the initial image is used the script will not work. I desperately need the help of a real JS Guru. Frank Sorry. Here it is. Hi all. I am creating a website and it utilizes the Apple Touch Icon: Code: <link rel="apple-touch-icon" href="/customIcon.png"/> Basically, I want to be able to change the bolded part from a drop down menu. Like, the user would select a certain item in the drop down menu and it would change the bolded part to a different link (the one corresponding to the drop down menu selection). Any ideas? the script below should open a new window with a url specified in the select area. However, my script ignores the changes in the select area. it keeps opening the same page. I was wondering could someone take a look and tell me why? Thank you very much. <code> <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <head> <title> Jump Menu</title> <meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html;charset=UTF-8" /> <script type="text/javascript"> function jump_menu() { var i=document.getElementById("page_select").selectedIndex; document.getElementById("jump_to_page").onclick=function() { (i==0) ? alert("Please select a page to go"):window.open("http://www."+document.getElementById("page_select").options[i].value); } } window.onload=jump_menu; </script> </head> <body> <select id="page_select"> <option>Select a Page</option> <option value="yahoo.ca">Yahoo</option> <option value="topnews.ru">Top News</option> <option value="google.com">Google</option> <option value="amazon.com">Amazon</option> </select> <button type="button" id="jump_to_page">Go</button> </body> </html> </code> Hi there, i've run into a bit of a problem, i've managed to get javascript to change an image when choosing an option from a dropdown menu, but when i try to get it to change multiple images it only ever changes one image... Code: <script type="text/javascript">
function changeWalls(what, whatimg)
{
if(what != "none")
{
document.images[whatimg].src = what;
}
}
</script>
<select name="Walls" onchange="changeWalls(this.value,'walls')">
<option value="images/white.gif" selected="selected">Please Select a Colour</option>
<option value="images/WALLCC.png">Classic Cream</option>
<option value="images/WALLSG.png">Shale Grey</option>
<option value="images/WALLDO.png">Deep Ocean</option>
<option value="images/WALLSM.png">Surfmist</option>
</select>
then the images i want are multiples so i want to change 2 of these Code: <img src="images/front_0002_front-wall-colour.png" alt="" name="walls" border="0" id="walls2" /> Greetings, In a vertical expanding menu, I'm looking to change where the user clicks in order to expand the menu to the submenu. In short I want the user to be able to click on the parent menu item text and have that action expose the submenu children text items. Please see attached .png for visual. At present, the user must click on an arrow icon next to the parent menu item text to expand, but I'd also like the parent menu item to expand showing its children when clicked. All the parent menu item does right now is call in the linked page; it does not expand the menu. I've attached the .js in the 3 attached .txt files. Please let me know if there's anything else I should add/send. As far as I can tell the name of the arrow being used to expand menu can be seen in this html... <td class="wbtTdMenuItem"> <a id="menuitem1" class="wbtMenuItem wbtMenuItemSelected" href="javascript:void(0)" title="Selected Chapter: Welcome">Welcome</a> </td> <td class="wbtTdArrow" style="padding: 2px; border: 0px none;"> <a class="wbtArrowLink" title="Expand Welcome submenu" href="javascript:void(0)"> <img class="wbtArrowImg" src="images/collapse.png" alt="Expand Welcome submenu" style="width: 5px; height: 9px;"> </a> </td> Here's the html containing the name of the item I'd like to use in addition to the arrow... <td class="wbtTdSelected"> <img src="images/spacer.gif" style="width: 0px; height: 0px;" alt="Selected menu item"> </td> <td class="wbtTdMenuItem"> <a id="menuitem1" class="wbtMenuItem wbtMenuItemSelected" href="javascript:void(0)" title="Selected Chapter: Welcome">Welcome</a> </td> Hi guys, I am having an issue changing a piece of Javascript and hoped you guru's could help?I am not awful with Javascript but it is fair to say I am still at the beginning of my learning! I can't find the correct answer in forums and tutorials and you guys are literally my last hope! Here it is .... I have a drop-down menu on a website I am working on which is made up of HTML, CSS and a little bit of Javascript. At the moment it is set so that when the user hovers over the menu it operates the drop-down. This obviously does not work for iPads etc as there is no mouse to hover. I want to keep my menu but alter the Javascript so the menu drops when clicked instead. Here is my code: Javascript Code: <script type="text/javascript"><!--//--><![CDATA[//><!--
startList = function() {
if (document.all&&document.getElementById) {
navRoot = document.getElementById("nav");
for (i=0; i<navRoot.childNodes.length; i++) {
node = navRoot.childNodes[i];
if (node.nodeName=="LI") {
node.onmouseover=function() {
this.className+=" over";
}
node.onmouseout=function() {
this.className=this.className.replace(" over", "");
}
}
}
}
}
window.onload=startList;

I realise that this must be quite an easy thing for you guys but - as I said - I am at the beginning of my learning and it is confusing the hell out of me! All of the things I have tried have not worked! Any help would be truly appreciated! Thanks in advance! basically i have a form with lots of fields.. drop down boxes and textarea's and standard input text.. now what i need is a way to change all of these fields with a fetch button. i can get the value for the fields from the perl script on my server side. the form basicslly sends lots of fields to my perl script and saves each field of data into seperate text docs. now my customer would like to retrieve the data back to the form to change aspects of it to be resubmitted . i am struggling with the simplist of codes to set the value of the fields from a javascript variable any ideas please. Is there a way add another dropdown form to this script? http://javascript.internet.com/navig...-comboxes.html Or do you happen to have another script that does the same job? I need three level connected dropdown boxes. Each one should be filtered according to previous selection and should be empty before that selection is made... Thanks in advance... Resolved.
I'm looking for four level connected drop down boxes. Unlike all the scripts I have seen on the internet I need all the options to be available if nothing is selected in the previous drop down. So I want something like combination of connected drop downs and ordinary drop down. If the selection is made, display appropriate options in other drop downs... Hope I'm clear... Ex: If I had three properties in Spain, ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | -------- Country: Spain --------- | -------- Country: Spain --------- | -------- Country: Spain ---------- | | -------- State: Andalusia ------- | -------- State: Andalusia -------- | -------- State: Catalonia --------- | | -------- District: Malaga -------- | -------- District: Granada ------- | -------- District: Barcelona ------- | | -------- Town: Marbella --------- | -------- Town: Motril ----------- | --------- Town: Badalona -------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- it should show me all the list of available locations, but when I choose Andalusia, it would only show two rest locations – Malaga and Granada, and the same rule when choosing district – Malaga->Marbella Can anyone please help? I need it very much... Thanks in advance! Hi There. I've been reading this forum for quite sometime, but today is my first post, hope you guys can help. Here is how the code works: (its like a phone directory) -User first selects the dept. -Once selected, a second drop down populates with the names of each person in that department. -I want the contact info to show on the page once they select this last step. I need for when the user selects this second options for a link to open inside a iFrame inside of the same html page. I uploaded the file here for you to see: www.pioneer-energy.us/tf2/contact-us.html Here is the code for the HTML doc: Code: <body bgcolor="#ffffff" text="#000000" link="#0000ff" vlink="#800080" alink="#ff0000" onLoad="fillCategory();"> <FORM name="drop_list" action="yourpage.php" method="POST" > <SELECT NAME="Department" onChange="SelectSubCat();" > <Option value="">Select Department</option> </SELECT> <SELECT id="SubCat" NAME="SubCat"> <Option value="">SubCat</option> </SELECT> </form> Here is the .js file code Code: function fillCategory(){

Thanks for any help in advanced! Ok so i am trying to make 3 dropdowns based off a mysql table. and the 3 dropdowns need to be based off of the previous dropdown. i.e Source, School, Sub. Select Source, and the schools in dropdown 2 are based off of the source they selected, and when they select a school, all the sub cats for that school are in the sub category dropdown. It seems like a simple concept, but i've google'd EVERYWHERE and notihng. I have the 3 dropdown's pulling from my database perfectly. i just cannot base the next dropdown on the previous selection! I know nothing of javascript..im a front end designer with little php/mysql. I've read that Ajax is the way to go, so here i am ! any tutotials, links or sample script layouts i can use would be amazing! Thank you! jt Hello, this is my very first post, and I hope to get some help, . Please dont take this as a code dump. The following script is a working script,, Which correctly displays a 2 level chain-linked select box My problem is I need to make a third box which option VALUE will be the same as the option CLASS of its parent item in the second box. Any pointers?
