[solved] Drop Down Lists - Not working

[jchelpdeskwv]

Hi folks,
I would appreciate assistance in figuring out how to get this drop down list to work.   It works outside CMSMS and I am not sure what is preventing it from working in CMSMS.   I have spent hours looking in the forum for a clue as to what is keeping it from working, but alas, I request your assistance.

This is a drop down list of various links, some within CMSMS, most outside CMSMS.  The user gets to select additional information by using the drop down to select one of the topics, which then takes the user to that page.  While I get the drop down structure, clicking on Go does not work.  

Do I need to place this code inside { } to make it work?

Here is the code:


Apply for County employment
Get birth, death, marriage certificate
Register to vote
Lookup property records
View property taxes




- WHAT HAPPENED---
My TinyMCE was indeed deleting my code, which made the drop down not work.  I uninstalled Tiny and copied the code without using Tiny and the drop down works.  However, the reinstall did not work... another forum for that one.

It works for me. I copied the code, pasted it into a page and it worked.

Thanks Nullig.

At least I know the code is good now.  Just have to figure out what to turn on or off to get it to work on mine.

Ok, I have figured out why the code is not working and it is related to the HTML source in TinyMCE.

I add the following code using the HTML Source button and then hit save/apply.




Apply for County employment
Get birth, death, marriage certificate
Register to vote
Lookup property records
View property taxes




But when I go back into the code, the form name is deleted and the onChange is deleted.


Apply for County employment
Get birth, death, marriage certificate
Register to vote
Lookup property records
View property taxes

It changes the code, so of course it does not work.  Anyone have any idea of how to get over this bug?

if you're editing on a page - put this code in a global content and link to the global content in the page - or if not needed for the rest of the page deactivate the tiny for this page

Thank you very much for the suggestion.  It worked beautifully.  Of course, after turning Tiny off in the Global Content Block page.

fine - and sorry I din't mention this - it's because I never turned tiny on for GCB's - so it was "normal" for me. You can turn it on again if you need, but don't forget to turn it off before you make changes at this GCB
