Behaviors window

The Behaviors window

In this window, you can define JavaScript functions for individual objects like for example images. Beside the standard actions like writing text into the status bar of the browser or into an own popup window, opening a new window or forwarding to another URL, you also have the possibility for example to create and adjust Rollover Images or check a form.

New behaviors can be created by clicking onto the "+" popup, existing ones can be removed with the "-" button.

"Events For:" controls the events at your disposal and restricts it so much that for example with "3.0 + 4.0 Browsers" you even can't use onMouseOut!

You can easily change the order with the up and down arrow buttons; but only to a limited degree as you can only once define onMouseOver or onMouseOut in the source code and thus actions with same event always have to be together and can only be moved between each other.

If you have created a behavior it appears in the list below. When clicking a behaviors a popup button appears between "Events" and "Actions" allowing you to select an event which is, as mentioned above, restricted by "Events For:" concerning the allowed selection. A double click onto the line with the current behavior you can change the settings of it.
