Full Version: hotspot editor

I am creating a page with frames and a horizontal menu. When I run the hotspot editor, all of the groups attach to the image on my page, except the first one. I have manually attached the groups, installed-- still it will not adhere. I have even gone as far as to recreate the entire file-- new name, location-- same problem.

Can you please post a ZIP file with your HTML document and the .dmb project?

I have attached the web page and the dmb file.

The problem is that the "what" group is NOT set to display a submenu.

The Over action must be set to display a submenu and the target menu must be it self.

Another important thing is that you MUST NOT type the links manually into the "URL/Script" text box... ALWAYS use the browse button to select the your links.

I do not type the links manually into the "URL/Script" text box, but I do make the url relative, so that the links will also work on our production server.

I am now having trouble opening the asp pages that I've linked to in the submenus. I have installed the frames loader code onto these pages.

The proper way to ensure that all your links work with DMB 3.5 is:

1) Make sure that your default configuration is of type relative. If you have upgraded a project that was created with a previous version DMB has already done this for you... but you should double check it anyway.

2) Select all the links using the browse button and DO NOT modify them. Even if they look like full URLs DMB will do the proper thing to convert them into relative links when you compile your project.
