I was searching the forums for an answer to this very quesiton and then I
realized that I had solved the problem on my own. I have a page on the site
I've designed that includes a map of the USA with each state included as part
of an image map. When you click on the state a pop-up displays with sales
contact information for that individual state. Using Contribute, I was able to
edit the sales information and post the changes to the site. Though still a
novice at Dreamweaver and Contribute, my method works (though it may not
exactly fit other's requirements).

In the first page (with the map of the USA), the code for Alabama is as
follows:

<area shape="poly"
coords="327,236,347,237,356,281,351,289,337,288,33 7,295,328,297" href="#"
alt="Alabama"
onClick="MM_openBrWindow('../states/alabama.htm','Alabama','width=350,height=175
')">

The alabama.htm page has a body with the following attributes:

body {
margin-right:350px;
margin-bottom:175px;
background-color:#8D9AB8;
}

The actual address information is included in a div tag as follows:

<div class="mmhidestate" id="pop_up">
<p>Your Company Name<br>
1234 Elm Street<br>
Anywhere, AL 12345<br>
Telephone: 800.555.1212<br>
Fax: 800.555.12130<br>
Email: <a href="mailto:webmaster@yourwebsite.com"><span
class="style2"></span>webmaster@yourwebsite.com</a></p>
<p align="center">[ <a href="javascript:self.close();">Click to close</a> ]
</p>
</div>

The pop-up includes javascript to allow the end-user to close the window by
clicking the "Click to close" link.

Also note that the div class name is " mmhidestate ". By using "mmhide" as
the prefix to the class name (state) this particular class does NOT appear as a
valid style in the Contribute style list available to the end-user.

Using Contribute 3 and Dreamweaver 8, I was able to accomplish this feat quite
well and was able to edit the pop-up from within Contribute and not have to
interact with Dreamweaver to do so.

I hope this helps. If so, please let me know. If there are clarifications I
need to make or can share other information, I'd be happy to. We all benefit
by sharing our experiences here, I know I have - a great deal!

Cheers,

Vince :)
