Invisible Navigation Bar

Question

I use Xara to produce my navigation bars, but in Dreamweaver
8 the bar is generated whee I want it, but not shown in design
mode. I have tried to turn on visibility in 'View' without success.
Any suggestions as to what the solution is?

Answer 1

That usually indicates a problem with the font that is used and isn't working or missing.
Try to use the DOM Inspector to see which font is used in that section.
*DOM Inspector: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/dom-inspector-6622/
* https://developer.mozilla.org/En/DOM_Inspector
* https://developer.mozilla.org/en/Introduction_to_DOM_Inspector
The DOM Inspector (DOMi) has a menu item (Search > Select Element By Click) and a button to "Find a node to inspect by clicking on it" (left icon on the toolbar).
* open the browser window in the DOMi (File > Inspect <b>Chrome</b> Document) and choose the first from the list.
* click the "Find a node to inspect by clicking on it" button and use the keyboard (Alt Tab) or the Task bar to go back to the browser window (do not click in the browser window other than the title bar).
* click that element with the mouse and keep the button pressed until you see a red border to indicate the the DOMi has located that element in the DOM tree.
You need to use the keyboard to get access to the location bar of the Firefox window (Ctrl+L) and type something or press the Down key to open the drop down list.<br />
Once the list is open then you can click an entry and you should see the red focus ring.
Then you can check in the right pane in the DOM Inspector which font is used:
* click the icon with the drop marker in the header and choose "Used Font Faces"
