[. . . ] If Show-Hide Layers is unavailable, you probably have a layer selected. Because layers do not accept events in both 4. 0 browsers, you must select a different object--such as the body tag or a link (a tag)--or change the target browser to Internet Explorer 4. 0 in the Show Events For pop-up menu.
4. 8.
From the Named Layers list, select the layer whose visibility you want to change. Click Show to show the layer, Hide to hide the layer, or Default to restore the layer's default visibility. Repeat steps 4 and 5 for all remaining layers whose visibility you want to change at this time. (You can change the visibility of multiple layers with a single behavior. ) Click OK. If the events you want are not listed, change the target browser in the Show Events For pop-up menu.
When viewed in a Netscape Navigator browser window, layers may shrink to fit the content. To keep this from happening, add text or images to layers, or set layer clip values.
To create a preload layer:
1.
Click the Draw Layer button in the Common category of the Insert bar and draw a large layer in the Document window's Design view. In the Layers panel, drag the layer name to the top of the list of layers to specify that the layer should be at the front of the stacking order. Select the layer if it's not selected, and name it loading, using the leftmost text box in the layer Property inspector.
2. 3.
Using the behavior actions that come with Dreamweaver

4.
With the layer still selected, set the background color of the layer to the same color as the page background in the Property inspector.
5.
Click inside the layer (which should now be obscuring the rest of the page contents) and type a message, if desired. For example, "Please wait while the page loads" or "Loading. . . " are messages that tell visitors what is happening so that they know the page contains content.
6. 9.
Click the <body> tag in the tag selector in the bottom left corner of the Document window. In the Behaviors panel, select Show-Hide Layers from the Actions pop-up menu. Make sure that the event listed next to the Show-Hide Layers action in the behaviors list is onLoad. (If it isn't, select the event and click the downward-pointing triangle that appears between the event and the action. Click 11.
Show Pop-Up Menu
You use the Show Pop-Up Menu behavior to create or edit a Dreamweaver pop-up menu or to open and modify a Fireworks pop-up menu you've inserted in a Dreamweaver document.

Chapter 18: Using JavaScript Behaviors
You set options in the Show Pop-Up Menu dialog box to create a horizontal or vertical pop-up menu. You can use this dialog box to set or modify the color, text, and position of a pop-up menu.

You can, however, use the Show Pop-Up Menu command to change the text in an image-based pop-up menu. For information about editing images in Fireworks, see Chapter 16, "Working with Other Applications, " on page 453.
