    Drop down list

    On my framed web site at http://www.kalikalos.org, I have a frame used as a navbar (navbar.htm). I locate various links on the navbar. I dont want to add any more links as it will start to look messy, and as this navbar doesnt scroll some monitors would lose the last few links if I did that...

    dropdown menu on mouseover on an image

    I was following this thread hoping for an answer, but I dont seem to find one. I should like to do what the writer has requested, using javascript, and when the mouse passes over either an image or a text anchor, a drop down menu appears. Thanks for some help with this.

    Break out of my frames

    On my three-frames website at <http://www.kalikalos.org> I want to break out of the frameset from a link in the top.html frame to my alternative site for people with small monitors who cannot see all the items on my framed navbar. I dont want my alternative site to be in my frameset, and I...

    Close control panel window

    Jeff Thanks for the encouragement. I'm glad to hear you had to do it by trial and error as well. And yes, please DO post the exercises where you learned something from each one. I will go there the instant you do it to start working through them. And I reckon I won't be alone! You'll get quite...

    Close control panel window

    Jeff, Thanks for your help with figuring this out. I havent tried your last version, as I will stay, for the moment, what is now working. I also very much appreciated your explanation of how to access the frames. I have a non-frames version of the side as well, as I was able to get the code...

    Close control panel window

    Jeff, fine. We're in business. <A HREF=&quot;#&quot; onclick=&quot;opener.parent.main.location.href = 'http://order.kagi.com/?B7Z';self.close();&quot;>Make a new booking</A> Works perfectly as I was wanting. I still feel quite frustrated, tho, because I can't seem to really master the...

    Close control panel window

    Thanks Jeff, I'll go and try it and let you know. But first I have a basic question: if I close the window of a document, and I write some more code after that window.close() statement, will that code ever get executed? Or, the moment the window closes, that finishes that document's ability to...

    Close control panel window

    Thanks Jeff. Now what happens is this: 1) the control panel window closes. 2) it opens up in Target=&quot;main&quot; (one of the three frames in my frameset) 2) Then the href opens in another of my frames, the navbar frame (which was in fact the opener of the control panel). I tried moving...

    Close control panel window

    Jemminger hi Strangely enough your code failed. It closes the control panel window, yes. But instead of opening up the new href in the target=main, it re-opens the control panel in the main frame. Maybe I didnt understand what you meant by href=&quot;#&quot;. Is # a placeholder that I need to...

    Close control panel window

    I have a line of code on my navbar that opens a control panel in a small newWindow. <a href=&quot;javascript: newWindow('booking.html')&quot;>Control Panel</a> In the control panel window I have a few links, a sample one of which is <A HREF=&quot;http://order.kagi.com/?B7Z&quot...

    hover text not working

    I took GUJUmOdel's suggestion and went to the CSS syntax page he recommended. That in turn referred me to a CSS tutorial. On the 4th lesson about classes they show the following code to illustrate how you can get three different colors of text using Classes: <head> <style...

    Function call from external js file

    Raxg, Thank you very much. Substituting top.main.location=loc; in the external scripts.js file makes it work just fine. But why? I wish I could fathom why. How could it work as it was before when it was in the body of the html document and not in the external scripts.js file? I thought...

    hover text not working

    I thank both the above two replies, because they both were integral to the solution of my problem. I repaired the background:color, and then I took out the <font> and <b> tags and put ID=&quot;bluegreen&quot; in with the <a> tag. It worked as it should! Then I wondered what would happen if...

    hover text not working

    Good day I am still trying to get hover text to work on this password protected link: <SPAN ID=&quot;bluegreen&quot;> <a href=&quot;javascript:gateKeeper()&quot; onMouseover=&quot;window.status='Remember your password is required!'; return true; &quot; onMouseOut=&quot;window.status=''; return...

    Function call from external js file

    Okay, here's the code in the <HEAD> section of top.html, and its also repeated in the scripts.js file, (along with a few other functions.): <script language=&quot;javascript&quot; src=&quot;scripts.js&quot;> </script> <SCRIPT LANGUAGE=JAVASCRIPT TYPE=&quot;TEXT/JAVASCRIPT&quot;> <!-- Hide...
