Snippet in Drop-down

New Here ,

Copied

I have some snippets - most are image only - that I would like to place in drop-downs.

I have tried dragging and dropping and Insert>Snippet and neither will work in the drop-down text editor.

Can I add snippets to drop-downs in RH7? If I can, how do I do it because obviously I am not doing it the right way.

Thanks,

Brook

Hi Brook

You first add the snippet to the main part of the topic. Then select it and cut it to the Windows clipboard. Then edit the drop-down and paste it there.

Cheers... Rick

I, too, put snippets in drop-downs by copying and pasting the text from the snippet into the drop-down. But here's the big problem--when I change the snippet, it doesn't change the text in the drop-down - I assume because the "link" is no longer there! So what's the point?!?

Also, when I create a snippet in RH7 it adds a #@%^ blank paragraph to the end of it (brought up in another thread today).
