Selector box

Post by bangmaster »

Is there a way to create a selector box in Flare? I know Flare has drop-downs, but that's not quite what I'm after here.

Are you thinking like a drop-down box that you'll see on a website form?

If so, I know you can do it via the text editor, editing the code directly, but not sure if you can do it from the XML editor. Someone may be able to give you guidance there. For what it's worth, here's a link to the w3schools page that covers the HTML: http://www.w3schools.com/tags/tag_select.asp

Flare also includes the Related Topics control, which by default is kind of a poor man's drop-down/popup menu (specifically for selecting from a manually-specific list of topics). I'm sure someone else can give you other, better examples, too. =)

I actually added the following to my page and it worked!

<select>
<option value="General Tab Overview">General Tab Overiew</option>
<option value="Printing Tab Overview">Printing Tab Overiew</option>
<option value="Port Tab Overview">Port Tab Overiew</option>
<option value="Drivers/Profiles Tab Overview">Drivers/Profiles Tab Overiew</option>
<option value="Queue Tab Overview">Queue Tab Overiew</option>
<option value="Deploy Tab Overview">Deploy Tab Overiew</option>
</select>

Thanks a ton, MattyQ.
