drop down list in a combo box
I tried adding a hotspot to my image that would poup an image. I wanted to simulate the dropdown list in a combo box. I can create the hotspot ok, but I can't position the image correctly. I also would like just the image and not have to have the image in a popup topic. Any ideas?

Hi Iggy,
I think you could get the entire picture to change by using an Image Toggle -- the second image showing the dropdown dropped; however, clicking anywhere on the image would fire the toggle. You could include a callout that pointed to the dropdown arrow, with text saying "Click here", but that's not really the effect you want I suspect.
Apart from that kludge, no other ideas. Hopefully someone more clever will chime in.
Good luck!

Why not use a real working combo box? Use Insert > Plain HTML code... and enter this:
Code: Select all
<select name="test_combo">
<option value="null">Sunday</option>
<option value="null">Monday</option>
<option value="null">Pancake day</option>
<option value="null">Wednesday</option>
</select>
