Hello fellow SitePointers,
Where do I go within Dreamweaver 8 to change the links I created in a Dropdown Menu from Fireworks? I don't want to go through the hassle of exporting the fireworks file again.
Thanks for your help.

I see the CSS and the layers. But the damn dropdowns are not there!!!
Any suggestions please?
Thanks


Can you provide the code for the menu? (I know, they won't you publish the whole page, I just want to see the code for the menu itself, nothing more).
If you can't do that, then your best bet is to dig into the HTML source in code view and look for <a href="#"><img src="#" /></a> where "#" is the resource indicator for the link and image (the IMG element will have other attributes, like width, height and alt="" but I left them out for the purpose of this post).

Hi Dan,Originally Posted by Dan Schulz
I am looking in the HTML code and not the CSS or Javascript?
I promise I will try to get it to you here.

In fact, here ya go. I think this is the part I have to look at.
**********HTML Code:<div id="MMMenu1022212507_1_4_1" onMouseOut="MM_menuStartTimeout(500);" onMouseOver="MM_menuResetTimeout();"> <a href="washingtopnorth.htm" id="MMMenu1022212507_1_4_1_Item_0" class="MMMIFVStyleMMMenu1022212507_1_4_1" onMouseOver="MM_menuOverMenuItem('MMMenu1022212507_1_4_1');"> Washingtop North </a> <a href="washingtonsouth.htm" id="MMMenu1022212507_1_4_1_Item_1" class="MMMIVStyleMMMenu1022212507_1_4_1" onMouseOver="MM_menuOverMenuItem('MMMenu1022212507_1_4_1','1');"> <span class="MMMenuItemSpanMMMenu1022212507_1_4_1">Washington South</span> <img src="images/arrows.gif" alt="" class="MMArrowStyleMMMenu1022212507_1_4_1"> </a> </div>
Hey, by looking at this code I think I found the links!![]()


Yep, those are the actual links. If there are images being placed above the text (to hide it) you'll want to check the JavaScript and CSS next.

I presume you the links to various pages that the dropdowns link to... then they are in the javascript file. Hence the suggestion not to use these menus - spiders won't find them
