Drop Down Tabs with Dreamweaver 8

[jcmiller]

1) Script Title: Drop Down Tabs (5 styles)

2) Script URL (on DD): http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamici...roptabmenu.htm

3) Describe problem: I am using Dreamweaver 8 and am trying to add style 1 of the drop down tab menus to my site. I copied the script onto a blank page, but it shows up in text for, as such: http://astro.temple.edu/~tua33450/test.html . I would greatly appreciate any assistance.

Make sure you've uploaded the .css file associated with this script, and that it's referenced correctly on your page.

okay, so I had forgotten to upload the .css and .js files, but now the page looks as such: http://astro.temple.edu/~tua33450/test.html . I would appreciate any insight as to my problem.

Inside the page, your two references to the .css and .js files are both incorrect:

file:///I|/hutchinsonweb/dropdowntabfiles/dropdowntabs.js
file:///I|/hutchinsonweb/dropdowntabfiles/ddcolortabs.css

You need to change them to something like:

http://www.mysite.com/dropdowntabfiles/dropdowntabs.js
"

Verify the urls work.

For some reason, one of my URLs shows an error message and now the page looks like this again: http://astro.temple.edu/~tua33450/test.html .

Ok I fixed one of my URLs on the page, but the other still does not work and it looks like this: http://astro.temple.edu/~tua33450/test.html .

[ddadmin]

The current references on your page are still incorrect:

http://www.astro.temple.edu/~tua3345...ropdowntabs.js
http://www.astro.temple.edu/~tua3345...dcolortabs.css

None load. Make sure they point to exactly where the .js and .css file is located on your site.

Thanks anyway for all of your help, but I cannot get the urls to load correctly.

[ddadmin]

Are you having trouble uploading the two files to your server, or to the correct location? The goal is just to upload them so calling:

http://www.astro.temple.edu/~tua3345...ropdowntabs.js

in your browser loads the .css file, for example.

I guess I am having trouble uploading them to the correct location, because both files are in the "dropdowntabfiles" folder, which has been successfully published to my public_html folder.
