[Pro] rollover / target show/hide layer

Now this may be a dumb question… And i have trawled the database above and google…

I am trying to create a scenario to this
(which I found in the search database)
http://www.deltadesign.co/fw_examples/fwactions/target-show-hide.html#

However in my page the menus (graphic text links)
are further down the page on the left - and the target text is to the right…

My problem is whenever I click the rollover/link the target appears which is great “but” the page jumps to the top - because my links are halfway down the page - this looks terrible as whenever you click a link - the page moves up and then you have to scroll down again to the info you want to read!

The example page I added also does this - but because the links are at the top it doesen’t look too bad.

If i do it with the text rollover action it works (with rollover) - but if you click it the problem happens.

Please Help!
Cheers
Steve

It seems to me this can be accomplished via query combined with the CSS Menu action. You’ll use the CSS Menu to trigger the appropriate slide. I’ve used this at several occasions (for showing product description, product image, product details).

I could download your file, apply it to your page and upload it again?

Oh wait … you’re using an old version of Freeway, I’m currently using 7. I don’t know what your user level is, but when you feel confident enough I can supply you with files and video-instructions to do it yourself.

Hi Steve,
The page jumps to the top because the hash inserted by the Rollover Action has the browser looking for an anchor on the page. When it can’t locate it the browser simply returns the user to the top of the page. The Action inserts the hash (#) if the links don’t already contain a link so the answer (albeit a far from perfect solution*) is to add your own links. Simply add the following link to each rollover item and the target items should still work without the browser view jumping to the top of the page;

javascript:void(0)

Regards,
Tim.

PS. This is far from a dumb question. It has been asked before but still confuses people.

Since we’re both up-to-date … FW7 will do just fine.

Yes, select the item you want to apply the rollover Action to and add a link to it. Freeway will use this link rather than creating the empty hash (#) link for you.

Tim.
