Don't like the Navigation Bar? Try an Image Map.

I understand the simplicity of the Navigation Bar, but being unable to even move the hyperlinks, let alone change the font without resorting to hacking XML, struck me as too simple. I decided not to use it, instead opting for a hyperlink image map, which is really easy to make using iWeb. I put up directions here:
http://web.mac.com/jadespace/iWeb/1/Fetish/BEC79E6E-E82F-4AE3-9964-6BA510D46F1E. html

The image bit is quite a good idea. I had created menus on my page, for the same reason as I wanted my own fonts. It all works perfectly until I decided to add some flags to differentiate the same pages in different languages and I placed my flags in the top area of the page.
I spent hours trying to understand why they wouldn't work, changing opacity, location, size, until I moved them enough to realise that the top area is restricted to link generated by iweb and if you attempt to place your link to high, it will work in the iweb program but will not publish...
about 2.5 cm from the top are banned from publishing links

Photos disappear when I don't use the navigation bar

I read that it's better to create your own links instead of using the iWeb navigation bar, if you want your site to be indexed by Google. I did so and everything worked well on my computer (iWeb and in the saved folder). When I published the site, however, the photos on my photo page had all disappeared.
Does anyone know what might have happened?

Thanks for your help. It's good to know where to look when things go wrong.
I completely removed the new nav bar from the site and put back the standard one, so I'm not sure. When the site was uploading, however, I think I saw the image files being uploaded.
Now I'm trying to work with the nav bar on the left hand side of the page and with new buttons, and in the trial version the foto's magically appeared...

Why has the "Reload current page" control been moved to the navigation bar Firefox 29? I would like to be able to place it where I had it in Firefox 28.

After getting the Firefox 29 download I tried to rearrange my buttons\controls to where I was used to having them in Firefox 28 and prior. I noticed, in particular, that the "Reload current page" control is no longer available to be set in front of the navigation bar where I've had it for years now. The reason I chose Firefox in the first place was because I could customize it to my liking. I know you can simply right click and "Reload" the tab or just get used to going to the end (right side) of the navigation bar but that defeats the purpose completely for me.
Here's an analogy; Ford decides they will now replace current model cars in the US with British standard style vehicles. Every car sold by Ford will now be right-hand steer. While this may seem like a "no biggy" to some, others, especially those of us who are inclined to drive standard transmission vehicles, may be a bit resistant to that change. Not sure if I successfully made my point or not but hopefully I did.
Initially I thought I'd start by "Has someone fallen and hit their head?' or "Did Steve Ballmer suddenly take over Mozilla, in particular the build of Firefox 29, because this one smells like a Windows 8 (aka the aroma of a full sewer tank on a hot day)?" It is understood that updates are required and as an IT guy, I've been around for many a faux pas where the kinks just need to be worked out. They happen. Maybe some consideration will be made with Firefox 30 to those of us in the states that are used to left-hand steer vehicles.
I may be missing something here, and will gladly fall on my sword if that is the case, but there is no indication that I've seen from the Mozilla sight that the "Reload current page" control can be manipulated in any way as of Firefox 29. On the bright side, I now have a good reason to go back and review some of the browsers I discounted back in the day when I decided to go with Firefox.

As far as I know, [https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/classicthemerestorer/ the Classic Theme Restorer add-on] is the only way move the Reload button outside the address bar.
# Install [https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/classicthemerestorer/ Classic Theme Restorer] and restart Firefox when prompted.
# Open the Add-ons Manager (Ctrl+Shift+A; Mac: Command+Shift+A), then the Extensions category.
# Next to Classic Theme Restorer, click the Options button.
# On the Main tab, make sure "Movable back-forward button" and "Hide urlbars stop & reload buttons" are checked. You might also want to check "Combine stop & reload buttons". Close the options window when done.
# Right-click an empty area of the tab bar and choose Customize.
# Drag the Back/Forward, Stop and Reload buttons onto the navigation toolbar.
# Click the Exit Customize button in the lower right corner when done.
That being said, I should point out that you can reload pages in other ways.
* Right-click any tab and choose Reload.
* Right-click an empty area of the page and choose Reload.
* Press F5.
* Press Ctrl+R (Mac: Command+R).

How to Incorporate "fade" Into the Navigation Bar with iWeb?

I started wondering about and exploring this topic in another thread. I would like to make the navigation bar shine brightly and then slowly fade whenever the cursor overlaps the navigation buttons. Does anyone have any idea how to do this? For an example of what I'm looking for, please visit Neonsky.com. This company is a website builder that has, as one of its features, the fading navigation bar option that I'm looking to incorporate into iWeb. Just look at some of their featured websites for an example. I also found the following doing a google search. Any thoughts and ideas of how to get this feature on my iWeb designed website would be helpful. Thank you.
http://dreamweavermenu.com/dreamweaver-navigation-bar-fade.html

Leave all files in the folder as you downloaded them. Drop the index.html file on the browser icon. You will then see what the menu will look like when published on a page. Edit the index.html file to your needs. Your edits will be shown in the browser window (save file upon edit - don't worry, you can still undo in most editors - and refresh the browser window).
If required, also edit the main.css and image files.
When done, copy the contents of the index.html file into a HTML snippet in iWeb. Position the snippet to exactly where you want it to be (height and width accordingly) and publish. Upload the other files manually and make sure that their path on the iDisk/server matches the path mentioned in the index.html and main.css files.
As you will have gathered, you need to understand some HTML and CSS. You may acquire understanding and knowledge by trial and error.

Fixing resp. pinning the navigation bar to the top of the browser

Please help... I would like to fix the navigation bar on the top of the browser, so when you scroll down the page this navigation bar is staying always on the top of the browser. In this thread http://forums.adobe.com/message/4782547#4782547 heathrowe offered this solution:
Check the code for the Stage > compositionReady, as follows, that makes an element 'move' when page scrolls
$(window).scroll(function(){
var element = sym.$("sidebar");
element
.stop()
.animate({"marginTop": ($(window).scrollTop() + 30) + "px"}, "slow" );
Download sample here

It is nice, but the navigation bar is moving, and I would like to have it ALWAYS on the top.
Anyone knows how to solve this problem?
Thanks in advance...
Stanko...

hi there,
I found the solution for scrolling behaviour, but now I have (very simple) problem that I don't know how to access the main timeline from within the symbol.
In order to connect scrolling behaviour to some spots on the one pager you have to define simple shape, name it (in this case "three") and put the click behaviour, here the code for that:
var element = sym.$("Three");
// No Animation
//$(window).scrollTop(element.offset().top);
// With Animation
$('html,body').animate({scrollTop: element.offset().top}, "slow");
Now my buttons are in the naviBar, say in a symbol, and I don't know how to access the shape on the main timeline from within the naviBar Symbol.
Please help...
here the zipped file:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/0yy9uvnixmxww43/heelbopps_2.zip
You will see, if you click the shape with scroll down on it, it works, but if you click the star in the naviBar, it doesn't.
Regards...
Stanko

Adding ana archive page with a link in the Navigation bar

I am really new to all this so don't think that I'm a 'tard. I am building a blog on '06 and I like most of what I can do, but I can't figure out a couple of things. My current blog is with Godaddy (pronounced blow-daddy) and with that blog I have archives, recent entries and a calendar. Is there any way that I can duplicate that here? If not, how about just adding a blank page that I use for archives. I know that I already have one but I can't seem to make it visible in the navigation bar. Any help?

No, you have to have a page for it to show up in navbar.
The work around is to use refresh tag to redirect to your email address, here is how:
http://www.geocities.com/[email protected]/Test/Front.html
1) make a Front page
2) make a Contact page, link Contact page to Front page's navbar
3) editing Front page: search for href="Contact.html" change to target="_blank" href="Contact.html"
4) copy contents of index.html
5) editing Contact page: replace contents of Contact the contents of index.html
6) search for http-equiv="refresh" content="0;url= some page.html" change it to http-equiv="refresh" content="0;url=mailto:[email protected]"
7) add the following to the end of Contact.html
<script language="Javascript">

With version 5 of Firefox, if I open more than 1 session, most of the time I cannot see anything in the navigation bar and my back and forward buttons do not work.

I open 1 session of Firefox 5.0.1 and everything seems to work fine. Then I open a second session of Firefox and most of the time the navigation bar does not show the page that I am on and the back and forward buttons do not work. When this happens, the first session always remains working. I am an internet marketer so I have at least 2 or 3 sessions going at any given time.

A possible cause is a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

How can I pin the ONLY link I need (Bookmooch java) to the navigation bar instead of opening up a whole new toolbar?

I sent a better written request with an incorrect email address before ...
I would like to add a single URL link as a button to the navigation bar, instead of having to open a whole new toolbar for it alone.
I have moved all my add-ons to this single visible toolbar with the help of an add-on, but there isn't one for the Bookmooch bar. The official one can only be dragged into the bookmarks bar which I never use.
If I created a whole new bar and moved all the preset tools (home, back, etc) onto it, could I combine them with that URL button?
Or is the only way to fiddle with the registry and replace bits of the Mozilla code?
The link to the only person offering custom toolbar icons (I managed to find) won't load.
Help? Thank you!

Can we move the navigation bar (prev, next link) of advanced table to left?

Hi,
I have a question regarding the OA Framework advancedTable navigation bar.
Normally it is shown on the top right corner of the table, if it contains more than 10rows,
it will show on the bottom as well.
My question is, is there a setting to move this navigation bar (Previous Link, Records List, Next Link)
from the right side to the left side or to the middle?
In the OAF Developers Guide it doesn't state about being able to move this navigation bar.
Navigation
The navigation bar allows you to traverse across different row ranges of a table and is rendered:
- At the top of the table if the number of rows in the table is less than 10.
- At both the top and bottom of the table if the rows in the table is equal to or greater than 10.
Note: No navigation bar is displayed if the number of rows in the view instance is less than the value specified
for the advancedTable Records Displayed property.
When a user first navigates to the page, OA Framework does not know how many rows will be returned to the
table. The navigation bar simply shows the Previous and Next links.
Once the user navigates through all the rows, the navigation bar displays the row range as a poplist so that the
user can navigate directly to a specific range of rows, as shown below.
Thanks.

Hi,
I don't think there is anyway to move the same from right to left/Middle.
Regards,
Gyan
