Pop-up Menus using Dreamweaver

How to create & edit Pop-Up Menus

Pop-Up Menus can be easily created using the Show Pop-Up Menu of the Dreamweaver behaviors panel (similar to the Fireworks pop-up menu). The options can be set using the dialog box to create either a horizontal or a vertical pop-up menu. You can use this dialog box to set or modify the color, text, and position of a pop-up menu.

For Example: See our Top Links - Services, Portfolio, Rates & Deals, Web Products, Free Resources and About Us

1. To create a pop-up menu for an link (either text / image), create a link, select it and open the Behaviors panel (Shift+F3).
2. Click the Add (+) button and select Show Pop-Up Menu from the Actions pop-up menu.
3. Set options for the pop-up menu with the help of the dialog box that appears using the following tabs:

• Contents - to set the name, structure, URL, and target of individual menu items.
• Appearance - to set the appearance of the menu's State (Up / Over) and to set font choices for menu item text.
• Advanced - to set the properties of the menu cells, say width, height, color, border width, text indention, and the length of delay before the menu appears after the user moves the pointer over the trigger.
• Position - to set position of the menu relative to the triggering image or link.
