kinda-of-a-drop-down I suppose

mday8 · #1 12-10-2005, 02:05 AM

I've moused over many tabs on many sites that immediately show/explain what they're all about without my having to click on them when my mouse hovers over

drop down?

this is a wonderful tool re: choice

does BV have such a tool?

eg: a flag with it's mother tongue written below it. I am not familiar with the mother tongue but when I hover the mouse over the flag.....a 'drop-down' shows up in a language I can understand

and then I click....if I want

or go to the next flag...which does the same

good geograhphy

You mean something like at the top of this forum, if you mouse over the "Vodahost - quality affordable hosting" image, it says "Vodahost community forum"?

If that is what you are talking about?

BV does not currently have an alt text feature. But this is a great idea for the next version.

Please also consider the possibility of adding images for the menu bar items,
just like the drop down menus in Bluevoda or Office.

You can already add images to menu items.
Check out the menubar\ThemeIE sub folder for an example how to do this.
If requires some knowlegde of CSS however.

Thanks Pablo.

To anyone who uses Bluevoda or any other Visual Site Builder to build his own site and not for prof reasons, learning a program may be easy, instead learning how to write scripts or manualy modify files, can be very difficult and time consuming. That's why we will all be grateful if certain features are implemented in the main program.

(Anyhow, thanks for the tip. When i have some free time I'll have a look)

Hi mday
i think what you want is already in the programme

when building your website ,

right click on the image you what a "kinda drop down" on
select object properties
select general
write what you want to desplay in the alternate text box
save
and publish

your "kinda drop down" or "alt text" should now work

Thanks haytch....it worked. I now know how to 'kinda drop down'.
It's the best when putting things together and they work!

Again...thanks
Mary
