Drop Down Menus

[CliffLandin]

I am trying to create a simple drop down menu without using DHTML. Can anyone point me in the right direction to learn how to make these. I have searched for drop down menus on Google and come up with a ton of Javascript and DHTML examples, but I was under the impression that the menus could be created using HTML and CSS.

When in doubt, go flat out!

IE cannot make dropdowns without the help of some javascript but other browsers can. One of the most famous (and best) CSS dropdowns are Suckerfish dropdowns. You could also try this link for what I think is an updated version of the dropdowns:

I'm not sure if this is what you want, this is a list of countries and their abbreviations. When you pass the data to your program the field name is &CTRY (SQL, Focus, WebFocus, the variable may take another form in other languages)

<SELECT id="CountryBox" size="1" name="CTRY">
<OPTION value="BE" selected>Belgium</OPTION>
<OPTION value="HK">Hong Kong</OPTION>
<OPTION value="IN">India</OPTION>
<OPTION value="MY">Malaysia</OPTION>
<OPTION value="SG">Singapore</OPTION>
<OPTION value="AE">United Arab Emirates</OPTION>
<OPTION value="GB">United Kingdom</OPTION>
</SELECT>

Size = "1" means only 1 will show in the box. This is for a single selection.

If you are using front page you can select drop down option from the forms list, double click and it will propt you.
