Dropdown list

[Tapiwa JONGWE]

I would like to display 15 items (lines) in the dropdown list, but by
default the list displays only 11 lines. How can I have all the 15 items
displayed in my dropdown list ?

Thanks for your help.

Not really an asp question but in the select tag put 'size="15"'.

If it is ASP related and you are dragging the values out of a db/array, then
you could have the logic :-

If array length => 15 then
Size = 15
else
Size = array length
End if

Otherwise you'd have loads of empty cells in the drop down.

Hope that helps

I'd say that's just the nature of the browser. Perhaps it would be
different in a higher resolution.

You could use a listbox style select.
<select size=20>

I have a field with names in it, and I dropped a dropdown list behavior on it. Now I want to click on each name and then go to a another movie. How do I do?
If I play the movie and clicks on a name in the dropdown list a message window comes up and says;
Script error: Handler not defined. How do I do that?

I´m new with Lingo and still learning so please help me.

Try this site. Lots of great stuff, including drop-down code.

I'm not sure what handler you're using to get a handler not defined error,
but if you've already got the drop-down part working the way you want it to,
simply tell the program to go to the next movie in a mouseUP command, like
this:

on mouseUP me
go to frame "WhateverFrame" of movie "WhateverMovie"
end

HTH,

Hello there.

I have a drop down list, the data is populated from an xml file. It
works fine.

Now I'm trying to select one of the options in the drop down list, click
on a button, and then have the selected data saved to another xml file.

However, the data saved in the second xml file only returns the first
dropdown list data instead of the value that belongs to the selected
item.

What am i missing here?
