Pull down Menus in 2000

J

JamesL

I am trying to put in pulldown menus in FrontPage 2000. Is this possible. I
can do the pulldown menus, but they don't link to other pages on the website.
Is there an easy way to do this, or do I have to buy extra software?

You can email me directly at (e-mail address removed) or post here.

If you mean a drop down select menu, here's an example:

<form>
<p align="center"><b>Select a site </b>
<select id="Choice" style="color: #0000FF" size="1" name="mySelect">
<option value="">Select one</option>
<option value="http://altavista.com">AltaVista</option>
<option value="http://www.yahoo.com">Yahoo</option>
<option value="http://www.google.com">Google</option>
</select>
<input type="button" value="Go" onclick="window.open(Choice.options[Choice.selectedIndex].value)">
</p>
</form >

Add options as needed and edit the links to point to pages in your web.

Thanks Steve. Can you possibly tell me how to set that up in FrontPage 2000.
I am an amateur. Although I do have tech training...so not too dense (lol)

Well, copy and paste my example onto a page in code view.
Then switch to design view, and right click the select box.
Select "Form Properties" and you should get the properties dialog where you can add / edit the options.

Notepad first, then into HTML View.
