I'm new to dreamweaver and I am just building a website. There are two things I need help with:

1 How to I design a section of my page so that images cycle? Do I have to build them in ppt or flash? I really need the basics. The images are about 250x250 and I don't want them to initially link. How do I stack in CSS?

2: I have three different pulldowns, each of which rely on the previous. What process do I use to build this function?

Thank you.

this is quite a question, but I'll try:

>>how do I do I design a section of my pagfe so that images cycle?

well, there's 3 ways to do this off the top of my head, one is to use image-ready, part of the photoshop program and create an animated gif, another is to use flash and the last is more complicated which is to use JavaScript to replace the image after a certain time scale, there's lots of tutorials on the web about all 3

>>How do I stack in CSS?

I'm interested to know what you mean by 'stack'? but from what I'm presuming you mean is to place things anywhere on a page, best thing to do is to create a <div> tag with a CSS class that absolutely positions it onto the page, please don't do anything silly and try width/height: -100px, this is how you get banned

>>I have three different pulldowns, each of which rely on the previous. What process do I use to build this function?

To make something like this, you'd need JavaScript, there will be a tutorial out there to do this.

Sorry my answers aren't quite as in depth as you hoped, but hoped I put you in the right direction

Pull-down menus can be done entirely in CSS these days; and those are a lot more search engine friendly than anything done with Javascript.

that's true, just the functionality of the drop-downs would need a JavaScript function, or am I over looking something? :s lol

A user cannot show and hide the pulldown menues without JavaScript commands of some sort. Show me how a layer can be shown and hidden without JavaScript. I don't think it can be done without some sort of JavaScript interaction.
