Jump Menu Go
The Jump Menu Go action is closely associated with the Jump Menu action;
Jump Menu Go lets you associate a Go button with a jump menu. (Before you use
this action, a jump menu must already exist in the document.) Clicking the Go
button opens the link that’s selected in the jump menu. A jump menu doesn’t
normally need a Go button; choosing an item from a jump menu generally causes
a URL to load without any need for further user action. But if the visitor chooses
the same item that’s already chosen in the jump menu, the jump doesn’t occur. In
general, that doesn’t matter, but if the jump menu appears in a frame, and the
jump menu items link to pages in other frames, a Go button is often useful, to
allow visitors to re-choose an item that’s already selected in the jump menu.
To add a Jump Menu Go action:
1
Select an object to use as the Go button (generally a button image), and open
the Behaviors panel.
2
Click the Plus (+) button and choose Jump Menu Go from the Actions
pop-up menu.
3
In the Choose Jump Menu pop-up menu, choose a menu for the Go
button to activate.
4
Click OK.
Open Browser Window
Use the Open Browser Window action to open a URL in a new window. You can
specify the properties of the new window, including its size, attributes (whether it
is resizable, has a menu bar, and so on), and name. For example, you can use this
behavior to open a larger image in a separate window when the visitor clicks a
thumbnail image; with this behavior, you can make the new window the exact
size of the image.
If you specify no attributes for the window, it opens at the size and with the
attributes of the window that launched it. Specifying any attribute for the window
automatically turns off all other attributes that are not explicitly turned on. For
example, if you set no attributes for the window, it might open at 640 x 480 pixels
and have a navigation bar, location toolbar, status bar, and menu bar. If you
explicitly set the width to 640 and the height to 480 and set no other attributes,
the window opens at 640 x 480 pixels and has no navigation bar, no location
toolbar, no status bar, no menu bar, no resize handles, and no scroll bars.
