How to link rollover buttons to iWeb pages?

I've made my roll over buttons, their all ready and set up but I can't link them to my other iweb pages. Can anyone tell me how to do this? I tried publishing the site and setting it to link to url.com/blah (example!) but that doesn't work, it says the page doesn't exist.
It's so simple to link when it's just a picture, why is this so difficult

There are two types of links you can use for linking pages of a website - relative and absolute.
When you choose "Link to: One of my pages" in the Link inspector this creates a relative link.
When you choose to link to an external page you need to enter the full URL to the published page into the box in the Link inspector. Example...
http://www.domain-name.com/site-name/page-name.html

  • Tip: How to link to a non-iWeb page in the main navigation menu.

    I've figured out an easy way to add a link to the main navigation menu which links to a URL of your choosing. For example, I have an older .Mac site using the now archaic HomePage. Instead of rebuilding all of my old pages in iWeb, I thought it would be nice to add a link to the old site from the top main navigation of the iWeb pages. Sounds easy, right? Apparently Apple has other ideas as iWeb doesn't allow you to do this.
    Here's a work-a-round:
    Step 1.) Open iWeb and add a new page to your iWeb site. Pick any template, it doesn't matter which one.
    Step 2.) Change the page name to whatever you want using the page inspector. Whatever you choose as a name here will be reflected in the main navigation menu. For example, I named my page "Photo Archives".
    Step 3.) You don't need to edit this new page at all. In fact, we're going to erase all of the content in it later. Now publish your site.
    Step 4.) If you're using .Mac, mount your iDisk to your desktop. Then navigate through the folders to: Web -> Sites -> iWeb -> <Your Site Name>. If you're hosting your site somewhere else, navigate to your root directory.
    Step 5.) You should now be looking at all of the files which make up your iWeb site. Open the dummy page we created in Step 2 in a text editor. I used BBEdit, but TextEdit (see note below) will work just fine. For example, my dummy page is named "Photo Archives.html".
    Note: If you're going to use TextEdit, you need to select the checkbox "Ignore rich-text commands in HTML files" from the Open & Save pane of the Preferences dialog PRIOR to opening the file from your iDisk.
    Step 6.) Select all of the text (Command-A) and Delete.
    Step 7.) Paste the following text, substituting the URL you want to link to.
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"><html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"><head><title></title><meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0;url=http://www.mydomain.com/mypage.html" /></head><body></body></html>
    Step 8.) Save the file. You're done! You now have a link in the main navigation which goes to any URL you want.

    Hi,
    I'm OK to step seven but in your example can you highlight or make bold the "url address part " I'm to replace with my own?
    Thanks!
    Step 6.) Select all of the text (Command-A) and
    Delete.
    Step 7.) Paste the following text, substituting the
    URL you want to link to.
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><!DOCTYPE html
    PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"

    tle><meta http-equiv="refresh"
    content="0;url=http://www.mydomain.com/mypage.html"
    /></head><body></body></html>
    Step 8.) Save the file. You're done! You now have a
    link in the main navigation which goes to any URL you
    want.

  • Photoshop rollover buttons in iWeb

    Hi all,
    Has anybody produced a rollover button in Photoshop and then used the button and code in iWeb? If so, can you give me pointers where the code should go.
    Thanks
    G4 Dual 1.25   Mac OS X (10.4.4)  

    Yup, I have, but it is a right chore...and you need "iWeb Enhancer, which you can download here:
    http://web.mac.com/cbrantly/iWeb/Software/iWeb%20Enhancer.html
    (you can get a few free runs out of it before you have to pay)
    Here is how to do it - this assumes that you know the relevant Java Script coding to enable the roll over.
    1) Create your rollover and slices in P/Shop & Image Ready. Export the buttons as slices.
    2) In iWeb, drag / use Insert Menu > Choose... and place your "up" i.e mouse-off button in the position that you want it to be. Repeat for all buttons. Ensure that you "send to front" the rollover images.
    3) Add the hyperlink in the Inspector pane if you want one.
    4) Get you roll over Java script ready in an external HTML editor. Make sure you use the same image names as the files that you added into iWeb.
    5) In iWeb, on the page where you have the roll over, add a rounded box - size is not important. Make sure this has no colour fill and no border. Double click in this box and before you do anything else, type this, exactly as it appears here:
    <!--BeginHTMLData-->
    After that, cut and paste your roll over java script into the box (the script that would normally sit in the header of an html page.) Include all the beginning and end script tags.
    Then send this box to the back.
    6) Save and then choose "Export to Folder".
    7) Once exported, run iWeb Enhancer and select relevant folder.
    8) Once iWeb enhancer is finished, find the P/Shop image that is the "on" or mouse over image of your rollover. Place this in the "Images" folder within the folder that contains your published iWeb site.
    9) Now open the html file of the page with the roll over. You will see a section beginning like this:
    <--Begin Content added by iWeb Enhancer-->
    After this you will find you Java script roll over code. Check that the details of the on and off images are correct in terms of exact name, file type and src. Ensure that the image src, links back to your "Images" file (this is where iWeb will have stored your "off rollover image and you places your "on" rollover images. If in doubt change all links to head back to the root so they all start lime this: "/Images/

  • How to stop text box on iWeb page from automatically reverting to hyperlink when I click 'save'

    As far as I see, the main text box in the body section of my iWeb page reverts to a hyperlink (connecting to a file) when I click save.  I don't know how the hyperlink got activated to begin with--I must have done something, but I don't know what it was.  I tried this many times to fix it: went to Inspector "hyperlink" section, activated the text box in the page, un-clicked "make hyperlinks active" (so they are inactive), then un-clicked "Enable as a hyperlink."  That much works--the hyperlink (little white arrow in blue circle) disappears from the lower right corner of text box.  But as soon as I save (command S), the text box reverts to a hyperlink. 
    If I don't click save and move around the pages, it does not revert to a hyperlink.  It only reverts to a hyperlink when the file is saved.  Why is it doing this and how to stop this from happening--how to permanently return the text box to a non-hyperlink?
    The website page is: http://www.usronline.net/USR/VedicResearch.html.  If you click anywhere randomly in the main text, you'll get a prompt to download a PDF file.  This should not be, but I can't get this hyperlink to go away for good.
    Many thanks in advance.

    Please pardon the reply delay--a big project deadline had to be met.  Now back to this work:
    Yes, the text in the oval object had a drop shadow (the oval object itself did not).  I removed the drop shadow from the text, but the image file icon stayed in the right corner of the oval object.  I deleted the text and then the image file icon disappeared.  But as soon as I typed text again inside the oval object (not even pasting the previous text) the image file icon appeared again.  I deleted the oval object entirely and simply typed the text inside the main text box itself.  The image file icon that was attached to that oval object is gone (along with the oval object).
    Still the image file icon is attached to the main text box, though.  I again tried to uncheck the Enable as hyperlink (same process as described in first posting) with that oval object gone, but when I "save" again it reverts to a hyperlink. 
    Next I tried this: I copied the text from the problem text box and pasted it into another text box (outside of the problem one).  Still in the new text box with the pasted text, the image file icon shows in the upper right corner. 
    I also removed all the drop shadow features from this main text box (there was one more, on some words typed in the main text box), but it is still showing as an image.
    I don't know how it became an image file, and I'm still stumped as to how to fix it (short of forgetting about trying to figure out how it became an image and just retyping all text into a new text box).
    The link you provided for "Web Safe Fonts" is returning this: "The server at www.ampsoft.net is taking too long to respond."  I'm using Arial and Georgia (Georgia only on the menu and header text) in the site, and I had verified before designing the site that these are web safe, so I had thought they were.
    If you or anyone have any further suggestions or suspicions on this matter, I'd be glad to hear them.
    Thank you.

  • How are these rollover buttons accomplished?

    Hello-
    Can some expert please tell me how this website ( http://www.webfonts.info/ ) does their slick rollover buttons with the rolldown grayed "shade"? Is there a canned script or plug-in for this?
    Thanks-

    This is achieved using CSS as in http://www.webfonts.info/sites/default/themes/wf2/css/style.css?S and down to /* gallery listing page */
    Each of the ID's starting with #gallery-listing performs part of the effect.

  • How to remove NO Button on dialog page

    Hello friends,
    i want to remove no button on my dalog page how to do? my code is below , below this code still i can see on dialog page no button.. can any one help me out..
    OADialogPage dialogPage = new OADialogPage(OAException.WARNING,descMesg, null,"" ,"" );
    dialogPage.setOkButtonLabel("ok");
    dialogPage.setOkButtonItemName("YesButton");
    dialogPage.setOkButtonToPost(true);
    dialogPage.setPostToCallingPage(true);
    System.out.println("Entering To Delete");
    pageContext.redirectToDialogPage(dialogPage);
    Thanks
    krish.

    You can specify your own button bar with the required buttons.
    Extract from Developer's guide.
    The setFooterNestedRegionCode and setFooterNestedRegionApplicationID methods in the OADialogPage class have been deprecated.
    If you use the standard OK/NO buttons provided on the dialog page, you do not need to make any changes.
    However, if you are using the OADialogPage.setFooterNestedRegionCode and OADialogPage.setFooterNestedRegionApplicationID methods to render customized buttons under the footer region, you must update your code to use the new method OADialogPage.setPageButtonBarRegionRefName instead. This new method lets you set a reference to a page button bar region, built declaratively with OA Extension. You can add any number of custom buttons to the page button bar region. OA Framework renders the page button bar region under the footer. Adding your custom content to a page button bar region allows the page buttons to be rendered and positioned in the proper places specified by the latest UI standards. To render the Return To navigation link under the footer, use the existing setReturnToLinkLabel and setReturnToLinkURL methods in OADialogPage.
    To render a nested region, created with OA Extension, under a dialog page header, use the new OADialogPage.setHeaderNestedRegionRefName method.

  • Linking rollover buttons to an URL

    Hi
    I am wondering if anyone can help me, I am working in Flash
    CS3. I have created a rollover button and now want to link it to a
    URL, I am fully aware that I need to write some script to do this
    and have written the following:
    on(release){
    //Goto Webpage Behavior
    getURL("
    http://www.greenskyaviation.com/","_blank");
    //End Behavior
    and it doesn't seem to be wanting to link to the website, I
    feel that I am missing something so simple, but just can't get my
    head around it, and will probably end up kicking myself when it is

    Hi
    Ok thank you, I have checked and I am working in action

    thinking that I set the action when I've selected the symbol,
    rather than the layer? And I should be working in the window when
    all my layers are showing, and not when I'm selecting the different

  • How to add new button in Customized page....

    Dear All,
    I need to add new button to the page button bar in the UI page.I tried like this in the controller but still i can not get output:
    OAPageButtonBarBean oapbb = (OAPageButtonBarBean)oawebbean.findIndexedChildRecursive("OrderPageButtons");
    OAButtonBean cancelButton = (OAButtonBean)createWebBean(oapagecontext, OAWebBeanConstants.BUTTON_BEAN,
    null, "cancelButton");
    cancelButton.setText("Cancel");
    oapbb.addIndexedChild(cancelButton);
    Is there anything i missedout?
    TIA

    what you are doing incorrectly is
    trying to get the handle to the OAPageButtonBarBean.
    This is a named child of the parent bean(OAPageLayoutBean), and what you are trying to do is find it as a indexed child, this should give you a nullpointer excp in this line oapbb.addIndexedChild(cancelButton);
    since the handle should be null.
    to get the handle to OAPageButtonBarBean, use some like this
    pageContext.getPageLayoutBean().getPageButtons();
    and then add buttons to it.
    Thanks
    Tapash.

  • How can I edit or remove iWeb pages from Mobile me after I have published it to another site?

    I have published iweb pages to another server and now I need to replace the mobile me version with page "pages moved to..." or at least I need to delete old version. However I can't find any way to do this from mobile me or from iWeb.
    From Mobile me I cant find any way to even delete pages.
    With iWeb I cant edit the old version because I cant find way to have two version of same pages. As I understand what I need is a version of my republished pages that only contains the index page "pages moved to...". But I cant create that because I cant have two versions.
