RH8 HTML 8.0.2

hi all,

I'm adding some drop down hotspots to a few topics that I'm working on and I'd like to have some indicator to show this.

We are wanting to use a + (plus) icon, that will then become a - (minus) when it is clicked, just something visual to show it.

Any ideas of how i can accomplish this easily?

Thanks,

Nick

Note to self....I must be quicker off the mark to prevent stepping on Willam's toes. Sorry Willam. Hope it didn't hurt too much

Hi,

Hope folks are still reading this thread, as I'm having this exact issue and thought it might be wasteful to create a new thread. I'm having trouble getting twisties to work for me in RH8 / Windows XP. Actually, it seems to work properly when I preview it within RH8, but not after WebHelp generation (via IE8), which doesn't make much sense to me.

Here is the code I edited for the Dropdown hotspot, perhaps you might see something here that looks glaring. I've followed the instructions to the Tee (I think). What am I missing?

Thanks so much for your help!!!

===========================

<p id="p2" style="margin-right: 2px; position: relative;"><a class="dropspot" href="javascript:TextPopup(this)" id="a2"

onclick="JavaScript:swapImages(this, dropdown1)" onfocus="this.blur()" style="position: relative; ">

<font id="font6" style="position: relative; "><img src="icon_expandErrorInfo.gif" name="dropdown1" alt="" id="dropdown1"

style="border: none;" width="9" height="9" border="0" />  How does the AP News Registry collect data?</font></a></p>
