Setting up list boxes and pop-up menus

The List Box icon inserts a scrolling list box with multiple options to choose from. The Popup icon inserts a pop-up menu with multiple options to choose from.

To set up a list box or a pop-up menu:

1 Drag the List Box or Popup icon from the Forms tab () of the Objects palette to your document window, or double-click the icon in the Objects palette.

2 Select the icon in the document window, and set the options in the Form Popup Inspector.

3 In the Name text box, type in a unique name to identify the list box or pop-up menu.

4 In the Rows text box, type in the number of rows you want to be visible. For a pop-up menu, this is the number of rows viewers see when scrolling through the menu.

5 Select Multiple Selection to allow viewers to select one or more options.

6 Select an option from the Label/Value list box. Check the box next to the Label and Value text boxes to have the browser display that option as the default selection.
