In the creation of a website-How do I create a drop down menu from a navigation bar that automatically drops down (without having ot click) when the mouse hovers over it? For Example the Products menu should drop down a listing of the products you click one and it brings up that page. Is this possible to do in frontpage? I do not know Java.

There is NO WAY you can make a menu drop down without having to click on it in a web page. At least not with current technologies, although Im not quite sure about ASP.NET . Anyways, if you want to make the combo take you to a given page based on the selection, you can do this very easily with Javascript. I KNOW you said you dont know it (JAVA is different than Javascript by the way), so I have included a little code snippet here for you to use. If you want you can design the combo box in frontpage, assign the values to each item and then add the little line of code by looking at the source code. Anyways, here it is:

Select a destination
Goto URL one
Goto URL two
Go to URL 3

This code will create an HTML select list. when user selects an item, the page will be redirected to the address contained in the item's Value property.

Good Luck!

I suggest you go to http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex1/index.html . Here you will find all sorts of menus. All you need to do is cut and paste the source code of the menus in and you will have your very own drop down menu.

I suggest one ofthe menus where you can enter in your fields and links intially before you get used to the java.

Happy navigating
Fred
