I finally figured out how to make a drop-down menu on my
webpage. But how do I link the titles to a html page. So
that when they clickk on a title in the drop menu... it
goes into the html they are requesting to see? Please
give me step by step instructions. I'm not very smart at
this yet.
If you have FrontPage 2003:
1. Select the drop-down box.
2. Choose Behaviors from the Format menu.
3. Click the Insert button in the Behaviors task pane,
then choose Jump Menu.
4. Use the resulting Jump Menu dialog box to configure
the drop-down titles and URLs you want.
If you have FP2002 or earlier.
1. Right-click the drop-down box and choose Form Field
Properties from the shortcut menu.
2. When the Drop-Down Box Properties dialog box appears,
click th Add button.
3. When the Add Choice dialog box appears:
o In the Choice box, enter the title text you want
the visitors to see.
o Select the Specify Value check box, then enter
the URL in the accompanying text box.
o Set Initial State to No Selected.
o Click OK.
4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 for each hyperlink choice.
5. Click OK to close the Drop-Down Box Properties dialog
box .
6. With the drop-down box still selected, switch to HTML
view. The HTML for the drop-down box should look like
this:
<select size="1" name="D1">
<option value="
http://www.google.com">Google</option>
<option value="
http://www.yahoo.com">Yahoo</option>
</select>
7. Add an onchange= attribute to the <select> tag as
shown below:
<select size="1" name="D1"
onchange="window.location.href=this.value;">
