links from nav bar to topic in another webpage - 6/19/2008 10:45:36   
I am new to Dreamweaver, and I'm trying to get a "drop down menu" to make a link from my homepage to a link within another web page, so a viewer doesn't have to go to the other page to find the link. I tried "forms" drop list/menu but I don't want a drop down menu, I want the viewer to be able to mouseover the nav link and see a list of other sites/links to go to. EX; now the view has to click on Internt to go to the internet page, then click on a link to get to Webmail. Preferably, they could mouseover Internt in thelink bar and go directly to Webmail

Dreamweaver doesn't create drop down menus for you I'm afraid, you would need to build one yourself, or steal one from a free script place. I can't remember where, but there is an awesome CSS one somewhere on outfront.

Link to a specific place in a document
You can use the Property inspector to link to a particular section of a document by first creating named anchors. Named anchors let you set markers in a document, which are often placed at a specific topic or at the top of a document. You can then create links to these named anchors, which quickly take your visitor to the specified position.

Creating a link to a named anchor is a two-step process. First, you create a named anchor; then you create a link to the named anchor.

Note: You can’t place a named anchor in an absolutely positioned element (AP element).


1. In the Document window’s Design view, place the insertion point where you want the named anchor.
2. Do one of the following:
a. Select Insert > Named Anchor.

b. Press Control+Alt+A (Windows) or Command+Option+A (Macintosh).

c. In the Common category of the Insert bar, click the Named Anchor button.

3. In the Anchor Name box, type a name for the anchor, and click OK. (The anchor name can’t contain spaces).
The anchor marker appears at the insertion point.

Note: If you do not see the anchor marker, select View > Visual Aids > Invisible Elements.
