Thread: Table in a table

Hi Folks,

I am trying do do something that may be a bit tricky and need some help and advice please.

I have a table (months of the year) and when I mouse over the month I would like it to open a table that shows the days.

The hard part here is when I veiw this second table I would like to create a mouse over effect that when I mouse over a day text will appear specific to that day, and the text should appear in a place I determine on the screen.

I thank you in advance of your replies

Rob-
Nothing simple that you could create with BV. However, a search of Google for Dynamic Web Calendars showed several with this one showing many in one spot;

Hi Andy,

Thanks for the link.

Accepting that not much can be done in BV - please check this page out http://www.gnjgf.co.za/iptcour.html

When I mouse over the number at the top table an image appears.

Can I replace the name of the image with a table instead thus the mouse over would open up a table - I guess - those in th eknow would be able to advise.

Like I said- not eaisly done.

I would try creating the table and conent that you want on a seperate web page and align it into the top left corner. Name the page table1 and save and publish.

Then exactly as you have done with the golf course java script showing all the holes- change ....
var a1 = '<img src="http://www.gnjgf.co.za/ipt01.jpg" width="550" height="325" border="1" alt="First">'

to....

var a1 = '<src="http://www.gnjgf.co.za/table1.html" width="550" height="325" border="1" alt="First">'

and see if that pulls the table into view for you. Might even have to us this....

var a1 = '<src="http://www.gnjgf.co.za/table1.html" alt="First">'

Experiment a little. Most things are possible, it just depends on how much work you want to put in to achieve your goal - if there is not a program out there that already does it.

Another idea would be to create an I-Frame and then with the numbers above like in your example, the links would pull your created web page with the table on it, into the I-frame.

Hope that helps.

Hi Andy,

Thanks again.

Time is a plenty and I really dont mind giving it up to this good cause.

I appreciate the ideas you have shared and will give them some atention

Hi Andy,

It seems as if you are more correct than ever.

I can make the change as suggested however the first options do not show up the new html file.

When changing it as per the last option it seems as there is a clash with the script and warnings relating to those errors appear.

Back to the drawing board

Then maybe the I-Frames will be the best bet? Have a look here for something that you may be able to modify and suit your needs.

Hi Andy,

I am progressing.

I have managed to get this page done at www.gnjgf.co.za/calendar.php

What remains to be done now are the following:

1. Link the months at the top to open the repective month below , without clicking on the month "area" so that by mousing over the month the month opens below.
2. When the month opens below and I have entered the relavant events, on mouseover I would like the enlarging colour and text to happen in the white shaped area below.
3. Lastly - as ceratin events happen on the same day as others I would like them to appear with differing colours - much the same as is found at http://www.epjgf.co.za/oct2007.html

Thanks so much for the time and interest you have given in providing help
