Make an Anchor Tag not fade out in a slide

I am trying to get an anchor tag(button) not to fade in and out of a slide.
http://demo.gbaus.com/index.html
The Get Quote button on the Home Page I want to stay visible at all times when changing through slides. Is this even possible?

I'm not sure what you trying to do
If it's about the location yes , It's possible, U should consider them as the positioned elements
give position absolute to them and place them On the Slider so they never move
but if you try to go to other pages and want to keep those elements on the page you shoud use something like HTML5 push state
provide more Information

I think you should use jQuery in this case. According to your source every time the slider changes it's image a new link ( tag) is created with new href attribute. That's why the link fades in and out with the image having an effect of jQuery.
But you can solve this.
1. Keep a single link as your button and change the href attribute with the change of images.
2. Take an array to keep all the link's or href.
3. On every image change only change the href attribute.

Livecycle remove first page

I have a LiveCycle form in Designer that has a flowable menu page with checkboxes. When a checkbox is checked, certain pages are 'shown' in the document. The pages are subforms containing an image.
This functionality works fine. What I want to do is add a button to the front page that will remove the front page, open a 'saveas' window and then close. I can get the saveas and the close function to work but the front page gets cleared and is left blank in the document. If there is nothing on the page then surely it should realise it is not required as per the workflow?
Any workarounds would be greatly appreciated, this has been doing my head in for weeks! I know I can't delete the page using the acrobat model as there aren't the correct permissions. I'm hoping a bit of javascript on the button will do the trick.
At the moment I have:
this.resolveNode ("indexSub").presence = "hidden"; //indexSub is the subform
app.execMenuItem("SaveAs");
app.execMenuItem("Close");
I will look at forcing a filename at save another time!
Thanks

It is quite strange behaviour. I've checked that you can set presence either to invisible or inactive and it works fine then.
this.resolveNode ("indexSub").presence = "invisible"; // or "inactive"
Differences between invisible and inactive you can fnd here: http://blogs.adobe.com/formfeed/2009/03/xfa_30_presenceinactive.html

Actually "inactive" did play a part in the solution, not entirely sure if it was intentional!
The main change was to alter the first page from flowable to positioned. When the button was pressed, the page cleared, the SaveAs dialogue opened and then the document closed. When the saved document was reopened the menu page had disappeared as required. I'll add a comment to this if anything changes. Thanks all.

Display link on mouseover

I've got certain regions of the page that, when clicked, will redirect the user to certain addresses. My problem is that when the user 'mouses over' these regions, they see a pointer, but have no idea where it links to. For my purposes it is important that the user knows where they are being linked to. I believe Google displays 'fake' links when you mouseover links.
How can I achieve this? Is it impossible without having actual <a> tags?
I'm currently using location.href="http://www.site.com" to redirect the user where "site" is stored in a javascript array and changes depending on the mouse position.
EDIT: The link should be displayed in the normal mouseover link area - in chrome this is the bottom left corner - just like when you mouseover an ordinary link and you see where the link leads to.

I don't believe this is possible without using <a> tags, the best you could hope for is to use the title attribute to show a tooltip.
e.g.
<div title='www.google.co.uk' style='cursor:pointer'>
This is my div!
</div>
Using anchor links (as Google does), you can do something like:
<a href="http://www.mwhahaha.com"
onmouseover="this.href='http://www.test.com';"
onmouseout="this.href='http://www.mwhahaha.com';"
onclick="this.href='http://www.mwhahaha.com';">Link</a>​​​​​​​
This will show a link that looks like it's going to www.test.com, but clicking it actually goes to www.mwhahaha.com, although I'm not sure how legal/good practice this is (only tested this in Chrome)...

If I remember correctly, Google changes the href of the link to the real url during the mousedown event. Try pressing the mouse button while hovering over a link, but moving your mouse cursor off the link before releasing the button. When you hover over the link again, you should see a new URL.
I'm answering from my phone or else I'd check it myself. They may be doing it differently now.

Toggle menu issue

I've got a toggle menu, please see http://jsfiddle.net/Wp2em/41/ for code and functions.
On the real site which is using the same code, everytime when you click on h3 (Category 1, 2 & 3 which is an a tag at the moment), it toggles its submenu down a bit, then the page changes to a new h3 linking page, and the submenu collapses together on the new page.
I'm just wondering is there any way I can tell the submenu to be open when its parent page/the new h3 linking page is opened? Please see this bank site which has the side bar effect I'd like my toggle menu to be.
Thank you in advance!

Here is my fiddle
all you will need to do is put the class "currentPage" on the li that you are currently on and the menu should be open after the page loads. I also moved some of your css around so it should move a little smoother now.
** Updated fiddle code. It will now look at your current URL and set the link that matches with it to the currentPage. Also I added that if another menu is open it will close itself if you click on another parent menu
** Updated fiddle code. Ok now if you click on the arrow the menu will expand and not go to the link(like the bank site). Also I changed it where you will have to put the anchor tag in all parent H3s.

This is not too simple. I've had a very similar problem, although I was posting the page back to the same url so I used a hidden field to store a list of the id's of the H3's which were open.
You I think will have to use a cookie to do this as you're navigating straight to the new page. The idea is you create a cookie and set a value on it every time you open an H3 and remove it every time you close it. You can use this plugin to do this. Then when you open the other page, the script reads the H3's which should be open out of the cookie and opens them.
Another route would be to use Ajax to post the open/closed H3 information back to the server which would store it in session data and use it to build the HTML of the new page so the right H3's were open.

If the page loads and the submenu (ul.second_level) is generated (i.e. from php), parse an active css class on the submenu that must be visible.
ul.active {
display: block
}
ul.second_level {
display: none
}
This is in addition to your click function. Do not trigger the click event since it starts the animation (which I presume you don't want).
Update:
It is quite basic stuff, but I do not know how the HTML code for your menu is created. If you are using php and a database (for example) to create the menu, check every submenu item with the page you are on. If the page is one of the pages in the submenu, set the class 'active' on that submenu. The CSS does the rest (displaying this submenu and hide other submenus).
If you have a static page, use javascript to check on which page you are with window.location.href for example. The rest is the same.

How to make page autoscroll to DIV onload

I have a quicklaunch (bookmark list if you'd like) which will send the user to different pages with lots of text. So I want them to be sent to the specific paragraph.
Is it possible to make a page autoscroll to a specific DIV onload and how?
I'll live without the animation. If it can just go to it directly that'll make my day. Like when you have an <a href="#SomeId"> tag and when you click that anchor it sends you to that div.
Edit: If the user bookmarks the top paragraph, an ID isn't saved for the link. So in that case I just want it to go to the where the content div starts. How is this possible?

Try this:
window.location.hash = "myDiv";
This will change the hash to myDiv (and scroll to the element whose id attribute is equal to the hash).
Example.
