a form).
Note: Use this behavior only if you are very familiar with HTML and JavaScript.
1. Select an object and choose Change Property from the Add Behavior menu of the Behaviors panel.
2. From the Type Of Element menu, select an element type to display all the identified elements of that type.
3. Select an element from the Element ID menu.
4. Select a property from the Property menu, or enter the name of the property in the box.
5. Enter the new value for the new property in the New Value field.
6. Click OK and verify that the default event is correct.
Apply the Check Browser behavior
This behavior has been deprecated as of Dreamweaver CS5.
Apply the Check Plugin behavior
Use the Check Plugin behavior to send visitors to different pages depending on whether they have the specified plug-in installed. For example, you
might want visitors to go to one page if they have Shockwave and another page if they do not.
Note: You cannot detect specific plug-ins in Internet Explorer using JavaScript. However, selecting Flash or Director will add the appropriate
VBScript code to your page to detect those plug-ins in Internet Explorer on Windows. Plug-in detection is impossible in Internet Explorer on
Mac OS.
1. Select an object and choose Check Plugin from the Add Behavior menu of the Behaviors panel.
2. Select a plug-in from the Plugin menu, or click Enter and type the exact name of the plug-in in the adjacent box.
You must use the exact name of the plug-in as specified in bold on the About Plug-ins page in Netscape Navigator. (In Windows, select
Navigator’s Help > About Plug-ins command; on Mac OS, select About Plug-ins from the Apple menu.)
3. In the If Found, Go To URL box, specify a URL for visitors who have the plug-in.
If you specify a remote URL, you must include the http:// prefix in the address. If you leave the field blank, visitors will stay on the same
page.
4. In the Otherwise, Go To URL box, specify an alternative URL for visitors who don’t have the plug-in. If you leave the field blank, visitors will
stay on the same page.
5. Specify what to do if plug-in detection is not possible. By default, when detection is impossible, the visitor is sent to the URL listed in the
Otherwise box. To instead send the visitor to the first (If Found) URL, select the option Always Go To First URL If Detection Is Not Possible.
When selected, this option effectively means “assume that the visitor has the plug-in, unless the browser explicitly indicates that the plug-in
is not present.” In general, select this option if the plug-in content is integral to your page; if not leave it deselected.
Note: This option applies only to Internet Explorer; Netscape Navigator can always detect plug-ins.
6. Click OK and verify that the default event is correct.
Apply the Control Shockwave or SWF behavior
This behavior has been deprecated as of Dreamweaver CS5.
Apply the Drag AP Element behavior
The Drag AP Element behavior lets the visitor drag an absolutely positioned (AP) element. Use this behavior to create puzzles, slider controls, and
other movable interface elements.
You can specify in which direction the visitor can drag the AP element (horizontally, vertically, or in any direction), a target to which the visitor
should drag the AP element, whether to snap the AP element to the target if the AP element is within a certain number of pixels of the target, what
to do when the AP element hits the target, and more.
Because the Drag AP Element behavior must be called before the visitor can drag the AP element, you should attach Drag AP Element to the
body object (with the onLoad event).
1. Select Insert > Layout Objects > AP Div or click the Draw AP Div button on the Insert panel and draw an AP Div in the Document window’s
Design view.
2. Click in the tag selector at the lower-left corner of the Document window.
3. Select Drag AP Element from the Add Behavior menu of the Behaviors panel.
If Drag AP Element is unavailable, you probably have an AP element selected.
4. In the AP Element pop-up menu, select the AP element.
