I created a drop-down menu in Dreamweaver, but when I upload it to the server, it doesn’t work.

Hi Janine,

I created a drop down menu with Dreamweaver CS3 ( I am waiting to upgrade soon. )

Your directions were great. When I F12 the page to preview it, it looks awesome!

However, when I upload the page, does not look the way it should or function at all.

I have searched the internet high and low for answers to no avail.

Do you have any suggestions, or a quick fix?

Thank you so much for you help.

Shari

Hi Shari,

When you create a drop-down menu with the Spry features in Dreamweaver, Dreamweaver generates the HTML and CSS code, as well as the scripts that make it all work.

Those scripts are usually saved in a folder with a name like SpryAssets and you need to upload the scripts for your drop-down menu to work.

Look in the Files panel for a new folder created by Dreamweaver that has .js files in it (these are JavaScript files). Upload the entire folder to your server with the HTML page that has your drop-down menu and everything should work on the server, just like it does on your hard drive.

You can learn more on my site about creating a drop-down menu in Dreamweaver, as well as editing a drop-down menu in Dreamweaver.

Hope that helps you solve the problem,

Janine
