I am wondering how to make a hyperlink or command button
that will bring up a menu below it with more hyperlinks. I
have only got as far as putting buttons, etc. in a page,
and opening up the properties box, but haven't got them to
do anything, so if you could give detailed instructions,
it would be nice. THANKS

Hi JCT,

You add a new menu ("Tools > Customize > [Commands tab] > Category > New menu",
drag it onto a toolbar).

Then you add hyperlinks to it (Category: All commands > HyperlinkOpen).

While the customization dialog is still open:
From the context (right-click) menus, you can change the caption ("Name:") of
the menu and the hyperlink button, and the location the hyperlink points to.

Or you can add "Category: All commands > MenuWebFavorites", which will show your
favourites from IE and comfortable buttons for adding/opening files or web
pages.

Finally, the Work menu might be an alternative in case you want to have a menu
with buttons that open some documents that you often need:

Thanks alot, but what I was looking for is to make a
hyperlink to a menu in a web page, not on a toolbar. Sorry
for not explaining myself!

No, sorry, my bad. Didn't notice I was browsing the .web.authoring group (more by accident).

Can't help you there...
I'd google for "HTML form select option" ...
You can probably paste any code you find in directly, using the script editor.
I guess you may need CGI script support from your provider, or something like that.

Hope you figure it out, or somebody more knowledgeable takes over.

Regards,
Klaus
