Spry Menu Bar In Dreamweaver Is Displaying Like And Outline
Aug 19, 2008
I'm trying to make a spry menu bar for a website. It looks great in DW CS3, and when I preview it in different browsers, it works. However, once uploaded, when I look on the web, it's displaying in outline form rather than a menu. Why is that and how could it be fixed?URL...
I'm using a .csv file as the basis for a spry dataset. I've got it working and the data is getting inserted into a table dynamically. Since there'll be quite a lot of rows in the table, I'm trying to implement some paging controls so the user can see about 20 rows at a time and then page through the rest of the rows.[code]When I test, The first 20 rows appear but then these 20 rows are repeated another 20 times, so the first 20 rows are duplicated 20 times on the one page, i.e 400 rows are being displayed (if you know what I mean). The paging is also working via the buttons but each of the 20 rows (20 x 20) are being paged simultaneously, and I only want one set of 20 rows to appear at any one time.[code]
I have created a very simple popup menu with 4 links using Dreamweaver 8 behaviors function, works great in Mozilla and Netscape but in IE7 when I hover the mouse over the trigger text the drop down menu appears minus the text. Move the cursor to the pop up boxes and the text appears, a minor but very annoying problem.Also sometimes the top menu box from the pop up doesn't retain its text while the other 3 boxes do i.e. put cursor in any of the pop up menu boxes and the 3 lower boxes display text but the first (top) menu box only displays text if the cursor is actually in the box, makes the menu look very disjointed.You can see images of the problem on Picasa (URL...)I could have added the code for the file (mm_menu.js) but because it is Dreamweaver generated it's 764 lines and a bit large.[code]
I developed a dropdown menu using Spry (Adobe Dreamweaver). It is a vertical menu with multiple sub-menus.Some lists are very long and the menu goes below and off the page.I found a great example of what I want my menu to do: Coins Paper Money | eBayOn the side, it says "Browse By:" and there is a vertical menu. If I shrink the page up vertically a little and watch the sub-menus pop out, I notice they get pushed up if the parent is close to the bottom of the screen, which ensures that none of the options go off the page, they get pushed up.
Is there a way to make a spry horizontal menu panel drop down after being clicked, instead of rolled over? I have tried modifying lines 142-143, 364-366, and 470 of my js code, with no success. I attached my code in a Word file in order to highlight code changes I made to make them easier to find. I kept the original code, just commented them out.
I have a menu with a div displaying onmouseover, and hiding onmouseout, it works great except in IE if I click on the <select> tag, it triggers the mouseout event, interestingly enough the same does not happen when I click on a text field..
Code Example:
This is obviously not the real code, it's just to give you an idea, I don't think I can post the real code, cuz it's really long and complicated...
I'm using the prototype framework, and I'd like to keep it that way if possible...
I'm using a feature carousel on my new website - this is a horrible test version but take look and you'll see my problem - [URL]... It works fine in Chrome, FF and IE9 - however in IE8 and IE7, on the fade, an ugly black outline is added to the transparent PNG.
Does anybody know how I can remove the black outline in IE8 and IE7.
I want to display the question and answer in the following way. When the user moves his mouse to one question, the question will be expanded to show detailed answer of that question.
For example,
1. What is UML?
2 How to implement it?
3 What is the advantage of UML?
When i move the mouse to the Question 1, the question will be expaned and have a detailed answer of it; if i don't move to there, the outline won't expand.
I search for a long time, but have no clue. What functions should be use???
Trying to make code that adds a hover event to all html elements within a certain container. On hover the element should be outlined by adding/removiing a css class. Thats the first thing and I can't get that to work with the code below.
The second part is to keep the element outlined when its clicked, and also when selecting multiple elements by (ctrl+click).
Have searched for a outline plugin, but came up with nothing.
I am working on an application where the user is able to draw using square images placed using absolute positions. The user can draw any shape but it must always be connected. I now need to work out the outline of the shape they created. The only information I have is the x y of the pictures that were placed. Its driving me crazy... I tried to work out a system of looping through all the pictures and seeing if there were any images touching.
My most recent idea was to make the javascript select the images and see if I could get the coordinates of the shape from there... In simple I need a way of merging the images into a shape rather than separate entities.
This is a really basic question: what does blur mean, or what does it do when used in links as described below? I've tested it on Firefox 3.6 and Opera 11 and it behaves as I hope except for one thing. During testing if I use both keyboard and mouse to navigate within the same session, the browser history for the 'other' method is wiped out; it won't go backwards beyond the most recently used method. Is this not a surprise when you know what blur really means? I want the following (assuming Javascript is enabled):
a) Keyboard users to see a focus outline on navigation links. b) Keyboard users to see the outline still there if they use the browser Back button, and continue tabbing from that link onwards. c) Mouse users to NOT see an outline if they use the browser Back button.
I want to disable the onclick for a <div>. In onclick I am using Spry.Effect.AppearFade(...). Any suggestions on how to disable onclick after the first initial click from the user?
I have spry validation setup to validate a contact form and it works fine in firefox, chrome, safari and opera, but wont work at all in any version of internet explorer.
You can see the form in question here. code...
Anyone know if this is a common issue with spry validation and if so, is there a workaround?
I am just wondering if dreamweaver still has a timeline or animations section. I was able to quickly do this with dreamweaver 2 or 3, not sure, and it was a bit like the flash timeline. Is there anything like this in 2004 MX?
I have an issue with a spry accordion panel causing a flicker. The page is at: [URL] When I do a keyword search however and get a list of results, the flicker dissapears. It is flickering on some pages and not on others.
I am having problem in validating my form using spry tools. The problem is that if I try to include any other validation other than spry along with spry validation the spry validation does not work.
I'm using a .csv file as the basis for a spry dataset in Dreamweaver. I've got it working and the data is getting inserted into a table dynamically. Since there'll be quite a lot of rows in the table, I need some sort of paging controls so the user can see about 10 rows at a time and then page through the rest of the rows.[code]When I test though, I get the following error:"Failed to retrieve data set (dsHospPrivate) for spry:repeat".I wondered if someone could tell me where I'm going wrong? My javascript coding is really limited so I may have copied the wrong code blocks from the example in the abovementioned url.Also, I'm noticing that when the data comes in from the .csv file, any text that has an apostrophe in it, eg. children's - the apostrophe is not being rendered correctly in the browser, ie. it's being represented as a question mark in a triangle.
I have my code and it works of filtering data by Month and year.But it seems i got a problem when using accordion. For now, i created it manually but i want to make it automatically.If you click the dates in brown area it will display the news with that month. Can anyone help me out?I only have problem in accordion.[code]
I'm often creating html for foreign languages [from supplied copy] which uses special characters eg graves, umlauts, etc. As a matter of routine I replace the copy text with the correct document character eg for a u with an umlaut, I replace it with &# 252;
I do all of this in dreamweaver and it can take ages doing a Find and Replace on each of these special characters.
I've read that you can create a Command in dreamweaver which basically executes some javascript you saved in an htm file.
Can anyone show me the code I'd need to add to an htm file so I could run it as a Command? Basically I just want it to go through the entire html file I'd have open in Dreamweaver and replace all of the special characters it finds with the correct &#... alternative. Would be even better if it could also tell if you've just selected a portion of the text and do the Find and Replace on that.
