JavaScript - Dropdown Image Menu

I have a working drop down menu on my "Facebook" icon at the top of my website.

www.billboardfamily.com

The menu works fine, but I would like for it to open to the left of the icon... should look something like the attached pic.

I do not know enough about js to make this happen, any help would be great. Thanks in advance!

Hi everyone, I'm needing some help with a code and looking for some guidance. I'm trying to create two drop down menus that work together.

the first dropdown box displays the country with two titles, Can and USA.
the other dropdown box displays the province/state.

when Can is selected, 10 provinces is listed in the second box.
when USA is selected, 50 states is listed in the second box

The second menu is disabled until they select from the first menu

any help is appreciated!

Hello. I just added this javascript/css dropdown menu to my site (download came from here). Everything seemed to be going fine until I started to test it on other pages.

It seems to be running into some sort of conflict on certain pages, but I have no idea why or how. All I can tell is that the page loads differently (it shows basically an un-styled site, then it loads) and that's when the conflict occurs. In short, the menu shows up about 50px below where it should, rendering it impossible to use.

I don't care how it looks in IE. The only browser that is showing it correctly is Opera.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. I have no idea. :/

You'll have to login with "Reviewer" password "testingme" to see the layout I've been working on. Menu works fine on the index page and some other pages, but not for the website pages like st_rules.php and stuff like that. :/

Any help will be greatly appreciated. I love how it looks, and I'm super bummed it's doing this.

I am using a drop down menu for a website I'm working on to display menu items under categories. I'm using the same code to do this on two different pages with the actual content of the menu's loading from a MySQL database using PHP scripts.

www.browniepointscatering.com/menu.php
www.browniepointscatering.com/seasonal.php

On the menu.php page I left the code below in the mix which drops down the first category listed on the left.

On the seasonal.php page I took the code below out and it no longer drops down any menu by default when the page is loaded.

What I'd like to do is drop down nothing initially when the page is loaded but if someone opens up the "Cupcakes" category and clicks on an item it would keep that category open when it loads the item details in the center column.

If you need to see more code let me know!

<!-- Add-On Code: Show Select Containers On Load -->
<script type="text/javascript">/* <![CDATA[ */if(!qmad.sopen){qmad.sopen=new Object();qmad.sopen.log=new Array();if(window.attachEvent)window.attachEvent("onload",qm_sopen_init);else if(window.addEventListener)window.addEventListener("load",qm_sopen_init,1);};function qm_sopen_init(e,go){if(window.qmv)return;if(!go){setTimeout("qm_sopen_init(null,1)",10);return;}var i;var ql=qmad.sopen.log;for(i=0;i<10;i++){var a;if(a=document.getElementById("qm"+i)){var dd=a.getElementsByTagName("DIV");for(var j=0;j<dd.length;j++){if(dd[j].idiv.className.indexOf("qm-startopen")+1){ql.push(dd[j].idiv);var f=dd[j][qp];if(!qm_a(f)){var b=false;for(var k=0;k<ql.length;k++){if(ql[k]==f.idiv)ql[k]=null;}ql.push(f.idiv);f=f[qp];}}}}}var se=0;var sc=0;if(qmad.tree){se=qmad.tree.etype;sc=qmad.tree.ctype;qmad.tree.etype=0;qmad.tree.ctype=0;}for(i= ql.length-1;i>=0;i--){if(ql[i]){qm_oo(new Object(),ql[i],1);qm_li=null;}}if(qmad.tree){qmad.tree.etype=se;qmad.tree.ctype=sc;}}/* ]]> */</script>

OK, I think this is an error with the js.

I'm in the process of putting together a website in which when the user clicks on the nav bar, it drops down displaying the submenu.

I'm working with HTML Kit and in the preview screen (which if I remember correctly is IE7) it works fine.

However, when I save the file and open it up in any browser (FF, IE, Chrome)only kids and community work section works.

I'm not seeing anything wrong. Does anyone have a clue what's going on? Or would it be a problem with the HTML/CSS

EDIT: Guess I should post the link http://tinyurl.com/67w4epj

Can someone explain to me why my dropdown menu works on all my subpages but not on my home page? Just about done with this site to present to my client and need to get this working asap.

PM me and I'll give you the URL.

Thanks in advance!

I have a two dropdown menus, the second drop down menu appears depending on what is selected in the first dropdown menu. Problem is that in some browsers, if something is selected in the first dropdown menu, then if I click on the second dropdown menu then a dropdown does not occur, but if I select something in the first dropdown menu again and then click on the second dropdown menu, then the dropdown appears in the second dropdown menu. Why is this happening?

In Internet Explorer, Firefox and Safari, my second drop down menu appears straight away when I click on it after selecting something on the first dropdown menu for the first time.

In google chrome and opera, I have to select options from the first dropdown menu twice to be able to get the second dropdown menu working.

The jquery code for the second dropdown menu is below:

Code:

$("#optionDropId").change(function(){
	
var OptDrop = new Array();
         
OptDrop.abc = ["",1,2];
OptDrop.abcd = ["",1,2,3];
OptDrop.abcde = ["",1,2,3,4];
OptDrop.trueorfalse = [1];
OptDrop.yesorno = [1];

var selectedValue = $(this).val();

    $("#numberDropId").html("");
    $.each(OptDrop[selectedValue], function(x,y){
        $("#numberDropId").append($("<option></option>").attr("value", y).html(y));
    });
    
});

The full code is in Jsfiddle. (the full code might not work fully in JSfiddle but it works in browsers on its own file and the full code shows the order of my code.

Hi,

Hi have the attached some menu content code which has 3 levels.
I need some help with the .CSS file to make it step out correctly please.
I am using cssverticalmenu.css which is 2 levels
It allows the code to step out 1 level but the second layer overwrites the third.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Yes I am a novice.

Hi Friends..

I am not sure if this post is for the PHP or Javascript section. So I am gonna try my luck here..

I am Dev and I have come here for some coding help. I am just beginning to learn basic html coding (and some php), just so that I can tweak the code of a social network I am building using the script called phpFox. I am not having much luck from their support so I am hoping I'll get help from this vast community

My problem is quite small I believe: In my community's sign-up page, under the gender field there is a drop-down but the text is not displayed in it. Although.. there are 2 rows of blank space, and if we select one of them, the value gets saved into the profile. So all I need is to figure out how to display the labels of the fields: 'Male' and 'Female' respectively.

Have attached a screenshot of the erroneous page and I am also jotting the part of the code from the 'Signup.html.php' file on my server which deals with that dropdown menu. Hope that could give u an idea as to how to proceed. And if you require details from other parts of the code or related files; pls do let me know.



Code:
Code:

{if Phpfox::getParam('core.registration_enable_gender')}
		<div class="table">
			<div class="table_left">
				<label for="gender">{required}{phrase var='user.gender'}:</label>
			</div>
			<div class="table_right">
				{select_gender}
			</div>			
		</div>

Thanks in advance
