    Did you upload your CSS and javascript files to the server?  We would need to see a link to your live page on server to give more meaningful feedback.

  • Change position of button in navigation menu

    I hope this is a simple issue. I want to make it so that if I change the position of a button I put in the navigation menu the position will change throughout the whole site.
    Thanks

  • My Side Navigation menu and spry tabbed panels aren't working together. Can I fix this?

    I have made some tabbed panels, but my side navigation is not working correctly now. See the following page for an example. http://www.foxthermalinstruments.com/products/index.php   When you mouse (hover) over "Applications" on the side navigation menu you can see that some of the options are covered up by the tabs on the tabbed panel. If you try to hover down to one of the options that is covered or below the tabs on the tabbed panel the side navigation menu disappears. BTW, I am using Dreamweaver CS6.

    I have to be brutally honest.  I refuse to use Spry.  Adobe abandoned the framework late last year after practically ignoring it for 3-1/2 years.  It served it's purpose for a few years but it doesn't hold up well in newer browsers like IE10 and touch screen devices.
    Keep using it if you want but I don't have much interest in fixing something that is inferior to begin with.
    My advice is to run away from Spry.  Either switch to jQuery or get any of the excellent commercial extensions from Project Seven.  You'll be glad you did.

  • Navigation menu on main page working yet?

    I still do not have the main nav menu on the homepage working.  Right now I have it marked as not displaying and have copied and pasted it onto each page which is a pain.  This is really a basic function of any website and no matter how many other bells and wistles you have the basic site navigation needs to be a priority when providing a website building software.
    I really love muse and have a pretty good working website for a very satisfied customer, however I accidentally discovered the missing navigation menu when trying to train an employee of the company to use their site.  It was pretty embarrasing and did not impress them.  It shows up fine in safari which is why I never noticed it, but when they use Explorer it is not there, and this is only on the main home page ther rest of the pages display it fine.  If you click  on where it is supposed to be on the home page the navigation works.  It is just not displayed, which is kind of stupid looking.
    Please let me know when this very important feature gets really fixed!!!

    Yes.  Dreamweaver Templates (DWT files) allow you to define repeatable areas on your site pages such as common #headers, #footers, #menus as well as editable regions for unique page content.
    Server-Side Includes (SSIs) are also a good way of inserting commonly used code snippets using a single file.  Once uploaded, the include file parses to all parent pages which contain a reference to it.

  • Nested Navigation Menu, Pure CSS

    Argh! Can anyone help me perfect my nested navigation menu?? I had originally built it as a single level vertical menu, but now need to add 2 more levels. I got the second level working fine, except I can't get the rollover effect to line up correctly for the life of me!
    In Dreamweaver Live View, the highlighted effect (an image rollover) and the link text jumps up and to the left. When I test in IE8 or Firefox 3.5.7, the rollovers for the second level don't even appear.
    This is my first time using nested ul's for a menu, so I'm thoroughly confusing myself.
    Here's a page with the menu in place (left side):
    http://www.wdi-whq.com/pages/about-us.html
    And here's my css. The menu section rules are under "3. Navigation Code".
    http://www.wdi-whq.com/css/wdi-basic.css
    Any help is greatly appreciated!

    I tweaked with this some more yesterday. It seems to be working just fine today as far as my spacing and things lining up. I just need to shorten Black and White Copies to Black
    & White Copies so it will fit within the width of my background image. I think I simplified my rules, and changed the second-level hover rule to match the first-level one.
    Martyn, your rule helped me fix my problem with the highlight hover effect not working on the second and third levels. Yeah! I just didn't know how to target those nested levels. Thanks so much for your help!

  • Navigation Menu trouble!

    I created a drop down Navigation Menu in Dreamweaver CS5 by using the Spry Menu Bar. After I customized the colors I noticed that the drop down tab were appearing correct, but on the left if i widend the screen all the tabs were listed off the page.I have the website I created centered so u can see the tabs to the left.
    Attached is a picture.Can someone help me what did I do wrong?

    IMO the entire layout is in trouble not just the menu.
    I would start over with a pre-built CSS layout and ditch the tables.  You really don't need tables for layouts and should only use them when displaying tabular data (spread sheets & charts).

  • I need help with the navigation menu please?

    I have been working my way through your six part printed instructions and I am styling the header and navigation menu.  The bullet points disappeared which was correct and the tabs moved to the right, as they should, but one tab sits underneath another tab and all tabs are covered up by my main heading.  This is dreamweaver CS6.
    It looks a bit of a mess!

    I have moved this to the main Dreamweaver forum, as the other forum is intended to deal with the Getting Started video tutorial.
    The best way to get help with layout problems is to upload the files to a website and post the URL in the forum. Someone can then look at the code, and identify the problem. Judging from your description, it sounds as though the Document window is narrow, which would result in the final menu tab dropping down to the next row. Try turning on Live view or previewing the page in a browser. Design view gives only an approximate idea of the final layout. Live view renders the page as it should look in a browser.

  • Navigation menu indicator triangle problem

    Hi all,
    the navigation menu of my site looks correct in layout mode:
    It still looks correct in preview mode (notice the triangles' position):
    BUT when I go on to Safari, either by previewing it or uploading to my server, the triangles interfere with the text:
    Is there anything I can do about it? This looks awful!
    Thanks a lot!

    No. But it isn’t in Muse’s hand how a browser renders a certain font. You have to use a sort of "security belt".
    The alternative is, you have a layout problem (different font sizes for example in different menu states; using system fonts … …)

  • Show 2 level hierarchy in Managed Navigation menu(Current Navigation) in SharePoint 2013

    We have enabled Managed Navigation in SharePoint 2013 Publishing Site. Now when a user browses a page we want to show the current page siblings are its parent links in the Managed Navigation. Right now its showing only current page siblings in managed navigation.
    Is there any way to show current page parent links in Managed Navigation menu?
    For example I have a term set enabled for managed navigation with following terms:
    Level1
        Level 1.1
            Level 1.1.1
            Level 1.1.2
            Level 1.1.3
    Level 2
        Level 2.1
            Level 2.1.1
    Level 3
        Level 3.1
    Level 4
        Level 4.1 
    Now if a user is on page Level1.1.1 then Current Navigation should show following hierarchy in using Managed Navigation :
    Level 1.1
        Level 1.1.1 -> This node will be shown as selected
        Level 1.1.2
        Level 1.1.3
    Level 2.1
    Level 3.1
    Level 4.1
    Is the above behaviour possible by doing any out of box configuration or using SharePoint designer?
    Thanks,
    Anna Jhaveri

    Ha i was given the same task by my client but they wanted it to be done in client side rather than creating new user control and inheriting from actual control.
    i used Jquery and css to achieve staticlevel 3+  left navigation in sharepoint 2013. first of all let me explain the structure i had created.
    HR department
     -->Level 1
    ---->Level 1.1
    ------>Level 1.1.1
    ------>Level 1.1.2
    -->Level 1.2
     (same as above structure)
    all i did was setting up the staticlevel ="2" and dynamiclevel="3"
    so this would make left navigation with two level  and remaining of its sub sites as flyouts
    Part-1:
    so i used Js to convert all the flyout(dynamic class ) to static $(function(){  
    $("ul.dynamic").removeClass('dynamic').addClass('static');$(".dynamic").removeClass('dynamic').addClass('static');  $(".static").removeClass('dynamic-children'); $("#zz12_RootAspMenu > li:nth-child(n) > ul").removeClass('dynamic-children');
    $("leftnavigation ID"> li:nth-child(n) > ul > li.static > ul").removeClass('dynamic-children');              $("leftnavigation ID" > li:nth-child(n) > ul > li.static > ul > li:nth-child(n) > ul").removeClass('dynamic-children')
    $(".ms-navedit-flyoutArrow").removeClass('dynamic-children').removeClass('ms-navedit-flyoutArrow');
    by using this script all the dynamic classes get convert to static. after getting rid of classes call "dynamic" and "dynamic-children"
    second part :
    now we have convert all the dynamic level to static (just look wise) but functionally  its behaviors is like flyout menu items.so the following js adds the static behavior classes so it just functions like static menu
    $(function()
    var path = window.location.pathname;
    path = path.replace(/\/$/, "");
    path = decodeURIComponent(path)
    $("left nav ID" > li > ul > li.static.selected > ul > li > a").each(function () {
    var href = $(this).attr('href');
    if (path.substring(0, href.length) === href)
    $(this).closest('li').addClass('selected');
    $(this).removeClass('ms-core-listMenu-selected').addClass('selected').addClass('ms-core-listMenu-selected');
    else
    $(this).closest('li').removeClass('selected');
    $(this).removeClass('selected').removeClass('ms-core-listMenu-selected');
    How above code works:
    it  takes the url path of current page and compare it with the all the anchor elements href ,so when it finds the match it would go insert the static level class  like "selected" in the <li> and "ms-core-listMenu-selected" in the <a>
    tag so  they function like static.
    so i have done it for 4 levels so i had to put one more function as shown above to target and read <a> tag href values for 4th level and compare it with current page url.
    i didn't explain in detail in here, i'll be writing up again on this issue on  my blog with screen captures soon.
    Till then you can leave comments and questions.
    Disadvantage :this doest work if you have anything listed other then Subsites(pages,list,libraries) in left navigation.

  • Problem with jquery slide show conflict with vertical navigation menu in Firefox & Chrome

    Problem with jquery slide show conflict with vertical navigation menu in Firefox & Chrome. Works in IE. This is my first time trying to post a question - so please be kind. I am also not good with code and am finding css a real challenge after learning to design based on tables. I'm using CS5.
    The "test" page with the slide show is: http://www.reardanwa.com/index-slides.html   The same page without the slide show is http://www.reardanwa.com/
    I realize the images are not ideally sized - I'll fix those once I get the pages to function.  Maybe I need a different slide show? I would prefer a widget that I can modify to required size & postition. Again - I'm not good at building with code from scratch.
    The problem is the naviagation links that are directly next to the slide show do not work in Firefox of Chrome. They do work in IE.
    I've read about using jQuery.noConflict(); code but can't figure out the correct way to use it in my case or whether that's even part of the solution. I know my code is not well organized as I have cobbled together from various sources in an attempt to format the page the way the client wants it. Also, FYI, I will eventually try to make the page work in Surreal CMS.
    I've spent sevaral days over the last several weeks trying to solve sth slide show/navigation conflict - so any specific light you can shed will be much appreciated.
    Thanks in advance.

    If you DO want the slideshow overlaping the navigation try the below css:
    .sidebar1 {
        float: left;
        width: 225px;
        margin: 60px 0px 60px 60px;
        color: #FFFF0D;
        background: #595FFF;
        border-radius: 13px;
        -moz-border-radius: 13px;
        -webkit-border-radius: 13px;
        padding: 5px 5px 0px 5px;
        border: 3px solid #F7F723;
    .box {
    float: left;
    margin-left:-60px;
    width:700px;
    height:350px;
    border-radius: 13px;
    -moz-border-radius: 13px;
    -webkit-border-radius: 13px;

  • Please help me move pictures freely, and get a logical navigation menu

    I am a serious newbie to iWeb. As best I can tell, I'm in iWeb 1.1.1 (so what's that? '08, '09?) I'm in OS 10.5.7 if that helps. No recent iLife. Since attempting iWeb, I have been reading and trying my best to follow the tutorial but I'm impatient because I'm not a newbie in other related areas (like graphic design, video, photoshop, iPhoto, etc.), and get frustrated with what seem like simple tasks. I'm not trying to do anything fancy. But I am getting all tripped up with two things. 1) I can't get rid of the grids or the photos in the templates unless I drop my own photos into them. Once I do, I cannot move them around freely. I added a gif animation (it took it as a QT movie and after publishing played it as a animated gif, which was great) but the one or two pictures I have next to it I simply cannot do anything with except move within the right angles of the blue grid from the template that is still there. I tried the different frame styles but none of them do anything different. I am looking for something that allows me freeform movement of the photos I am dragging in. Too much to ask? And to get rid of the grids, or at least not be bound by their definitions. I'd rather not use them at all but didn't see an option for that.
    2) How do I change the page that has accidentally become my navigation menu. Before I understood this, I apparently created a page that is now my navigation menu. I want to get rid of that page altogether. But it has a star in front of it. None of the others do. Can I just create something called "Navigation Menu" and let it be just that. And build my sites and pages under that?
    Thanks for patience and help.

    You should post in the forum for iWeb 1, iWeb (Previous to iWeb '08) which will have users who are more familiar with the older version.

  • How do I fix my floating drop down navigational menu?

    Hello, I am currently reworking my website to make it responsive, but I have hit a roadblock with my navigation menu:
    My goal for the menu is to have a floating navigational menu in which as the user hovers over the link the image changes. One of the tabs is intended to be a submenu that drops down horizontally. I also am trying to get the menu centered on the page using fluid positioning.
    As of now, I have a functional drop down menu with the rollover effects. It wasn't until I began work on floating the menu that I ran into a problem. At first, the menu was not scaling proportioally with the rest of the page, but upon looking around, I found: http://matthewjamestaylor.com/blog/beautiful-css-centered-menus-no-hacks-full-cross-browse r-support.
    Using the code on the link, I recoding the menu. In the end, the drop down menu is causing the problem. When I have the drop down menu still included in the code, the menu is broken up in three lines. The submenu is grouped with its parent, but they are grouped boxy (at least in the browsers I have checked) and only two are visible.
    I decided to humor myself and removed the code for the drop down menu to find that the menu works perfectly--it does everything I was aiming for for the time being--rollover, center, floating.
    Is there something that I am overlooking that will fix the drop down menu?
    I was thinking that I would have to center the styles for the sub menu, but I didn't see any results.
    What am I missing that I am not seeing?
    The links to the two pages:
    http://ryanolsenstudios.com/WithDropDown.html
    http://ryanolsenstudios.com/WithoutDropDown.html
    If anyone can point me in the right direction it would be appreciated, I have been looking around trying to figure this out, but to no avail. Thank you.

    I don't advise you use images for navigation as they are NOT scalable to any good effect.
    Below is a simplified version of your image buttons with dropdowns in place.
    The jQuery used to create the rollover swaps is going to get very long and unmanagable (it's just as an example) I suspect there will be more streamlined solutions using jQuery if you Google, like just adding _static.jpg and_over.jpg to the end of the image src, which will keep the code to a minimum of lines.

  • How do I set up Dreamweaver 5 menu in English?

    How do I set up Dreamweaver 5 menu in English?
    I live in Japan but my computer set up (Mac OSX 10.9.4) is English as a primary
    language then Japanese secondary.
    When I downloaded Dreamweaver 5, it was automatically downloaded
    as a Japanese version.

    If you want to change the dictionary in DW, go to Edit > Preferences (see screenshot).
    This won't change your Japanese version of DW to English version. For that, you need to uninstall and re-install the English language version.

  • How can I get Navigation Menu Button to remain in down state after clicked?

    Hi there,
    I'm messing about with a Navigation Menu and would like to click on the button and once clicked, the button remains in its down state.  I can't seem to find a way of doing this?  Any pointers?
    Cheers

    We would need to see your live page and code to offer more meaningful answers.  But I wonder if what you really want is a "persistent page indicator" on your nav menu?
