I would like to create a search bar on the page that looks similar to amazon.com menu on the main page.
I'm not sure if it uses jQuery or not.
So, contains [categories]- a drop down menu and looks like:
[[Drop Down Menu >] ...type text here...] [Search button]
Upon clicking on [Drop Down Menu] you are able to choose a state you are looking in, so your search will be within that state.
Could anybody tell me the proper way how to do that, or there is a ready source for that?
Thank you.
You will need to use ajax (javascript) with some (possibly) server-side scripting technology. This autocomplete plugin for jquery may be of help.

In case it matters, I'm using WordPress as my website tool.
Basically this is what I have
<a name="title"></a>[expand title="title" trigclass=noarrow] Various text [/expand]
The anchor point is linked from a menu. Is there something I can add that when the anchor point is clicked, the drop down menu opens up? Either that, or is there another way for this to happen?
I'm very new to programming and I've tried looking on google but to no avail.
I'd appreciate any and all help!
Thanks!
yes there is .. you have to use jquery for that to happen...and instead of anchor ,, use a button with onclick EXPAND function..
Learn jquery thoroughly, it would be very helpful for further programming.
OK. So first, I will try my best to explain so good. My friend has gotten cursed out on this forum for not explaining, so I will explain. :)
Ok so I have my program built and all. But then it hit me! Wouldn't it be better to add a news feature? One teeny tiny problem? I cant? How would I implement a interactive code into an HTML page.
Like can i connect a button to a URL that will make the program do something. Almost like you can open cydia tweaks with there identifier and url EXAMPLE: http://handleopenurl.com/scheme/cydia And then i can add urls so i can update the program, without updating the files.
Or even just a featured news thing would be nice. But how would i implement this perfectly. I tryed a webrowser, but the page is too big for it. I am good at html, not much at css, i mostly use Adobe Muse http://www.adobe.com/Muse
Last question. Kinda defies the first thing i said about having my program finished.
Is there a way i can add a plus button and make it add more buttons and more labels and all?
This would help with allowing users to customize more then what the program can handle. By The Way, its a winter board Theme Maker. So I have a bunch of icons with there bundle identifiers and I create the folders with VB.net and all that stuff. But i want users to be able to click a plus button to add MORE text boxes and file browsers.
Any ideas? Maybe DIM 1 as NewFileBrowser? But i need to move all the buttons and i need it to be able to be clicked an infinity amount of times. I can do the coding for all of these buttons, but i jest need to know how to create them <1 Move them and the button so that the button goes further down each time, and more boxes will go further down. Much help apreciated. THANKS:)
EDIT:
Are you trying to say that you're wondering how to have a web browser control in a vb.net >app, which displays a web page, and when a button is clicked on the page, your app detects >it and does something? – Thraka
That sums up the top part. I am using windows forms, and it is coded in VB.net
If you get the object you want, like the button, you can hook the event and have it call code in your form.
Find the object using the Browser.Document.GetElementById method.
With that object, add an event handler to the Click event.
See http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.windows.forms.htmlelementeventhandler(v=vs.110).aspx for information about the event handler used
I need to be able to have a popup, preferably like a lightbox that displays an html message when a user clicks a link. The popup will populate the screen and the user will have to click "OK" after reading the message. How can this be done using lightbox? I'd rather avoid using a boring prompt as its much less attractive.

You might be able to do it in lightbox, but as far as I can tell it's not quite what lightbox was intended for. You may want to consider a more generic "modal" type of solution. A common one is jQuery UI's Dialog. Another common one is Bootstrap's modal solution.
I am currently working on a web application. I have a menu bar that moves when someone clicks on arrow. With every click a new menu option is activated.
Now, I would like to give the user the option to slide over the menu bar/screen to navigate on a touch interface.
Any idea how I would do that ?
Thanks
Well I don't think you'll be able to do it using just HTML, but if you're comfortable with jQuery take a look at this:
http://plugins.jquery.com/project/swipe
This plugin enables you to bind events to gestures, but I believe it only works on iPhone and iPad.
Where can I read more about creating linked slides like at the top of nytimes.com, slate.com, yahoo.com, nyu.edu, etc. I assume it's javascript, but I'm not sure what it's called, so I'm not sure how to look it up. I want to create a box at the top of a website with blocks of html text which slide in sequence if the user clicks next or after a certain amount of time.
Where can I read more about this?
The jquery cycle plugin is exactly what you are looking for.
http://jquery.malsup.com/cycle/
Specifically, checkout the advanced demos with paging.
If you want to use Javascript then you can use jcarousel and then animate the carousel with setTimeout
But you really need to know some javascript to do this
