Created my own menu bar - but can't "BRING TO FRONT"

I am wanting to put a photo behind my "menu bar" that I created for my site - however, whenever I try to slide a photo behind it - the menu will not "bring to front" - all other text and images will - but for some reason at the top of the page is different? I feel like there's a lot of "auto formatting" going on in my site as well - anyway to turn that off?
Thanks -

It's all about z-index: http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/zindex.html
iWeb page has four layers: nav layer, header layer, body layer and footer layer.
Look at your age source and you'll find the following z-index:
nav = 0
header = 10
body = 5
footer = 15.
The scenario is that you created your "menu bar" in nav layer, then added a photo in either header or body layer and slide it into the nav layer, but the photo isn't really inside nav layer - it straddles between nav layer and the other layer.
When that happen you will not be able to bring your "menu bar" to front because the photo is always in front of nav layer.
You need to turn on view layout (Shift Command L) to see the layout and move the photo *completely inside nav layer*
or move your menu bar to body layer and add the photo to body layer, in short both the menu bar and the photo have to be in the same layer.

Default menu bar - what can I do with this ver. of iWeb?

iWeb default setup ... them = 'white'
Menu items\text:
My first page won't let me capitalize the title (home). I don't want to actually, but:
My other pages won't let me NOT capitalize the menu item titles.
So I'm stuck having an uncapped first menu item, then all the rest are capped.
Is there ANY way to now change the fonts\colors on these default menus?
If not, what would be the most practical way for me to create my own menu bar? Or can I easily replace the default menu bar with my own, after the fact, by just re-linking the pages?
All ears,
Ben

Hello Ben,
Creating your own menu is really easy and oftentimes it works better that the original one.
First to remove the original menu go to the inspector on the page tab, and uncheck the display navigation menu item. Then on your page make a text box and type in the names that you want for your pages select each name (one at a time) and click on the link inspector tab (that is the second one from the right) click on activate link and choose one of my pages in the window, select the page and you are done.
Hope this helps

I cannot log onto the App Store, the page appears when I call it from the dock or the Apple menu and I can call the log-in box from the menu bar, but on signing in the spinning icon just keeps spinning,(not the beachball). Using 10.6.7 and up-to-date on all software. Any suggestions?

Could be a third party app preventing you from being able to login.
Mac App Store: Sign in sheet does not appear, or does not accept typed text
If it's not a third party issue, follow the instructions here.
Quit the MAS if it's open.
Open a Finder window. Select your Home folder in the Sidebar on the left then open the Library folder then the Caches folder.
Move the com.apple.appstore and the com.apple.storeagent files from the Caches folder to the Trash
From the same Library folder open the Preferences folder.
Move these files Preferences folder to the Trash: com.apple.appstore.plist and com.apple.storeagent.plist
Same Library folder open the Cookies folder. Move the com.apple.appstore.plist file from the Cookies folder to the Trash.
Relaunch the MAS.

Keep getting popup coupons - says that it can be deleted by clicking coupon button on menu bar but I don't see one

Recently started getting a lot of popup coupons - on the coupon it says that you can stop this by clicking on coupon button on menu bar but I do not see a coupon button on any of the menu bars. How do I delete this problem?

Your Firefox and plug-ins are outdated and introducing security risks to you which can be a reason for unwanted popups. Outdated software can allow malicious people on the internet to take control of your machine without you knowing. Download a new version of Firefox. Uninstall the old version, then install the new version.
After updating Firefox, to update your plug-ins, go to:
https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/plugincheck/
and find the ones to be updated, then update them.
Safe browsing requires vigilance, and this includes making sure you have programs installed on your computer to protect you online, and that they are regularly updated.
Steps to take:
<br /><br />
*Updating everything can be time-consuming, and if you're not sure what to do, use a program like Secunia's [https://secunia.com/vulnerability_scanning/personal/ Personal Software Inspector (PSI)] to help automate the process of updating all software on your computer.
*Make sure Windows Update is turned on and set to automatic.
*Always run antivirus software -- there are many free programs from vendors like Avast, AVG, TrendMicro, etc.
*Make sure your Windows firewall is on (if you are not using a replacement firewall, if so, keep that one up to date).
*Make sure your browsers are the latest versions.
Once you get everything up-to-date, then install a couple of helpful add-ons to your new Firefox installation:
<br /><br />
*[https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/adblock-plus/ Adblock Plus] will help block unwanted advertisements.
*[https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/noscript/ NoScript] will only turn on scripting (automated web-page actions) for websites that you trust.
After you've updated everything and have your new add-ons installed, you'll be safer on the web and should not be bombarded by adverts.

Do you mean the Bookmarks Menu button on the Navigation Toolbar?
You only see that button if the menu bar is hidden.

You can't. It's now integrated with the URL bar. It's a search/URL combo.

I think you meant but "not" on effects tab. Were you able to before? Try trashing your preference files. you can do this by hand or use the free program, Preference Manager from Digital Rebellion.

Creating multiple Spry menu bars in one site

I've been creating a website and I am required to use multiple templates to manage all the different sections of the site. To make it much less of a hassle, once I created one template, I simply saved that template as another template so I would not have to start all over again. On the first template I created a spry menu bar with a certain amount of buttons. And because I created the other templates with that template, those templates had the same menu bar containing the same settings. The problem is, because of the specified settings of the spry menu bar, if I change the amount of buttons from the original to one less, the whole bar on that template will get off center and messed up because the settings for the menu bar are not set to that certain amount of buttons, but if I change the settings to suite that amount of buttons, then the settings for all the templates change and that messes up the other menu bars on those templates because they have a different amount of buttons. Currently my templates all contain 10 buttons and I am wanting to create a new menu bar with only about 4 - 6 buttons. I thought going up to insert and inserting a brand new menu bar would do the trick but when I did that it inserted a menu bar that had all the settings of the already-created menu bar, (ie same background images, and hovers, etc.) as well as the width which, because the width is suited for 10 buttons, it does not properly make the default 4 button menu bar center correctly. And if I try to change the settings on this menu bar then the same thing happens with everything changing and getting messed up.
So after this long explanation, my question is, how can I insert multiple spry menu bars into one site that are not correlated with each other in terms of all the settings so that when changed, will not affect each other? I am guessing I am having this problem because I created all the templates from one template so they are all interlocked, but the page that I tried to insert the brand new menu bar on was not created from any of the templates and was the first page I made at the very start.
http://phonytrojanmusic.zxq.net/ Here is the link to the site. The first page that opens up is the page that I tried to insert the brand new menu bar on. If you click on band choir or elementary you will see the menu bars with 10 buttons that are all interlocked in terms of settings. Also, I'd like to note that if I delete a button in one template, it does not delete that same button in the other templates, nor does it add a button to the other templates if I add one. Only the physical appearance changes because the settings are meant for only one amount of buttons. Sorry for the novel!

Alright well I just tried to use 2 complete different templates. I created one brand new template from scratch, added the menu bar, gave it an ID of "band", and configured it to suite 10 buttons accordingly. Then I started off from scratch again with a starting html page with a different css style sheet and added the menu bar and gave it a different ID of "choir" but the settings of the two different bars still act as one set of settings! I dont know how to fix this problem. Please tell me what to post if anything will help you. Im guessing the solution is very simple but I have tried everything.
here is the code for the two different menu bars (one in each template)

How to create a shared menu bar

I can't see a way to create a single menu bar that is shared by several pages and only needs to be updated in one place. Surely DreamWeaver has such a feature?

You have already been answered by the methods to use,, but this is my long winded answer to your question - explaining both techniques:
You have 2 choices:
Templates
Server Side Includes
Using the template function within Dreamweaver is a good way to go if it's a small site . .
For larger sites then serverside includes would be more practical and earlier for maintenance purposes.
Templates:
You create a master template page, you declare which areas will be the same for every page, (non-editable regions) and then declare an area that will change on every page (the content area) , these are editable regions.
Once you create the template and save it, you are then able to create 'child' pages from this template - as many as you like :-) If you every need to make a change to the menu or the footer or the header, change it in the master template, save it and the changes will flow through to the child pages created from the template.
Using DW Templates:
http://www.adobe.com/devnet/dreamweaver/templates.html
http://www.adobe.com/devnet/dreamweaver/articles/dw_templates.html
The other option is to use Server Side Includes (SSI)
A bit more about SSIs here:
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/Dreamweaver/10.0_Using/WSc78c5058ca073340dcda9110b1f 693f21-7b6ca.html
http://bignosebird.com/ssi.shtml
Using PHP includes if your server supports php:
http://www.w3schools.com/PHP/php_includes.asp
One major difference between using Templates and SSI?
When you make a change to a template page, you will need to re-upload all the pages to the server that were changed - may become very tedious if it is a very large site.
With using SSI, you make a change to one file and only have to upload the one file and all pages on the server will be update accordingly.
When to use Templates, Library Items & SSIs -

Creative Cloud installs and appears in my menu bar, but will not truly "open".

I'm on OSX 10.9.3 . Creative Cloud downloads, installs, and appears in my menu bar, but will not truly "open". I only see the spinning symbol (the Adobe one, not the Apple beach ball). I never even get a chance to log in and download anything. I've tried on three different Macs with the same result. All three meet the system requirements for CC. Thanks in advance for any assistance!

Sorry, it didn't work for me. I closed the application (it hung the first time I tried and I had to restart the Mac to get rid of the window), and deleted the recommended file. When I tried to re-open the app, I got this:
I never got the opportunity to log in, either before or after the attempted fix.
Thanks,

I have created an album in iphoto but can't buy it because I still use iphoto 08 (version 7.0). If I upgrade to version 7.0, can I print my album in New Zealand or Australia?

I have created an album in iphoto but can't buy it because I still use iphoto 08 (version 7.0). If I upgrade to version 8.0 which is iphoto 09 can I print my album in New Zealand?

Yes -- http://store.apple.com/us/help/print_products/routing
but to upgrade you will need to purchase an iLife DVD from ebay or Amazon or other source - older versions of iPhoto are not available from the App Store - either iLife '09 or '11 will work on 10.6.8
beware that sometimes books (albums are logical organzational elements in iPhoto) sometimes will change with upgrades so you may need to make some changes after upgrading - be sure to carefully preview prior to ordering the book
