IWeb Navigation Bar Not Publishing

When I am proofing my site I am getting an unknown publishing error. When I look at the what downloads I am not seeing my navigation bar or my Blog. I can't see anywhere in the troubleshooting why this would happen. Help?

Where are you seeing the errors in your website: in a locally published site or in the online site? What browser are you using?

Iweb navigation bar not working in Internet explorer 8

iweb 09
I published my site to the sites folder on my imac OSX 10.6.4
Built my own navigation bar and the links work fine in Safari & Firefox
The only portion of the Nav bar that works in Explorer 8 is the Map Navigation which links to an external page (map quest)
All The links work in Explorer 7 (but none of the images show up)
Anyone have a solution
I'm loosing it!

External links tend to be more robust than internal. Having said that there is no good reason why this should happen in IE V8. I've certainly never had this problem.
If they definitely don't work for you then try recreating your navigation using the URL for each page.
What images don't show up in IE 7?

Navigation bar not updating when published

I'm seeing an issue where the navigation bar in iWeb properly updates as I add and remove pages but whenever I publish the site the nav bar seems stuck in a state from many revisions past.
I've tried deleting the entire site on the web server and republishing, I've tried adding and removing pages but so far I've not been able to get the published nav bar to reflect what I see in iWeb. It's stuck in the past.
Any ideas on how I can fix this short of creating a new site and trying to move all the pages over? That's the next step I'm trying to avoid by asking this question.

Hi samsalas,
This thread was marked answered by the original poster who seems to have found resolution with the suggested solution.
Since this does not work for you, it is best if you start a new thread and describe your issue. It's possible that the issue is not quite the same and you may need to troubleshoot differently.

Navigation bar not functioning

Hello,
I have a published site (debotahvrogers.net) that was updating and now when I update my navigation bar does not work. I am using iweb '09 3.0.1
I have tried refresh, cache and cookie removal, made sure my photo was not overlapping in to the navigation bar. At one point friends could view the whole site even though I could not. I had someone check the site tis a.m. and she could only access the home page. I have notified my server and Apple. In the mean time does anyone have some insight on my problem??
wish I were a geek...
happy 4th to all

I had a similar problem yesterday. It had five pages but could only view the home page (because the nav bar wasn't working) but I typed the URL of my other four pages into the address bar and I could view them then. I checked back this morning and the nav buttons worked. I host on godaddy.com so I assume it just took awhile for the FTP to complete transfer. If you host through MobileMe I would wait a day, but if it still doesn't work contact Apple.

No navigation bar when publish to FTP

Hi there, when I publish my website via FTP, the navigation bar disappears so I am only able to view and navigate to the root URL or home page. Check out what I mean at: jaimejacobsenmedia.com (Under "Jaime Jacobsen Media", it should say "HOME ABOUT FILMS RADIO PHOTOS CONTACT)
Any ideas on how to fix this so all pages are published and show up in the navigation bar up top?
Thanks!

Normally, when this happens, it means that not all your files have been uploaded to your server.
You actually need to be able to see what has been uploaded to your server and what has not and you can't do this if you use iWeb ftp. From iWeb, publish your site to a local folder and download a copy of Cyberduck for free and if you connect to your server using this, then you can see exactly what files are on your server and what are not.
Also check that your image is not covering your navigation menu, which it can easily do and it is close. It only takes a tiny little overlap of the boxes on the page and either your navigation menu will not show up or will not work.
Check both of these. If it is your graphic that is covering then you will have to move it.

Navigation bar not working cannot add a new one says there is a warning but does not indicate what kind of warning

In the space where you would add a widgit there is a warning so a new navigation bar cannot be added. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling but that did not help. When I pulishedd my website the navigation bar did not work. It only linked to one page but I cannot fix the problem because of the warning.

Hi
Are you creating a manual menu and while adding another menu item you are facing error ?
Please elaborate more as what are the steps you are taking and upload screenshots of navigation bar that you are using in design mode , if site is published then share the url.
Thanks,
Sanjit

Custom Navigation bar not working. Apple can't seem to help

After watching many videos on people customizing their Navigation bars on Iweb, I decided to do the same for my website. If you go to the home page of my site I can click on any link and have no problem. However, once I am off of the home page I cannot get any of the other links to work. I took my mac to the apple store and they showed me how to fix it. But it didn't help. Nor has there been any useful advice from calling their tech support. Any ideas on how to fix this would be appreciated.
Rev. Paul

So if you have a custom made nav bar that works okay on the home page, but not on the other pages of your site, did you remember to go and hyperlink your nav bar on the other pages of your site and not just your home page, or did you forget?
That is one reason why they will not work, if you forgot to hyperlink - you either have to hyperlink first and then copy and paste or do each page individually - it is time consuming, but is the price you pay for having a custom nav menu.
A url would be nice so we can see what is going on.

Navigation bar not visible in edit mode

Hi,
is there somebody who can help me out of this: in edit mode my navigation bar is not visible, however once the site is uploaded the bar is visible. During edit mode i can only see a big dot which positioned in the navigation bar text box.
I am using the latest version of iweb and OS 10.6.8
looking forward to any good sugestions. Thanks.

That is so unusual. Usually it's the other way around: looks OK in iWeb but not after publication.
Log into another user account on your Mac, launch iWeb, create an new test site and see if the navbar is visible. If it isn't then the application seems to be the culprit and a reinstall of iWeb seems warranted. To do so you'll have to delete the current application and all files with "iWeb" in the file name with either a .PKG or .BOM extension that reside in the HD/Library/Receipts folder and from the /var/db/receipts/ folder,

Then install iWeb from the disk it came on originally and apply all necesary updaters.

Navigation bar not rendering correctly in Windows IE

Hi everyone,
This is my first project using iWeb, and I've had some Win users email me a screenshot of the site's navigation bar rendering incorrectly. As the site is loaded, the bars appear blue in background, and according to them, sometimes it turns black, sometimes not. Please check it out and let me know if you have a solution?

Thanks,
Dave
PS - it seems to be rendering fine in safari and firefox (mac). Also, I did search the forums and didn't find a similar issue in several pages of results.

The navigation menu is completely composed of PNG graphics... therefore, sometimes IE has difficulty rendering these properly. Most of the time, the problem is self-limited...iWeb's .js file goes over after everything has loaded and re-renders the PNGs to make them viewable specifically in IE. But sometimes the problem is persistent...and you might see grey boxes behind the menu items probably as your viewers are describing.
I have seen both behaviors with my site.

Navigation bar not displaying

I redesigned my website and when I published, the navigation bar didn't display on top of the new homepage. I couldn't access any other pages. It worked perfectly well in the iWeb program. What did I do wrong? (I re-instated my old page - that works fine.)

Where are you uploading the files - MobileMe or another server?
If the latter, how are you uploading them - iWeb FTP or another app?
Is there a black dot where the navigation should be?

Header and Navigation bar not showing in IE browser

Hello there!
My headers and navigation bar are not showing up when I view in IE, although they do show up when I view the live design in Dreamweaver. They also display properly in Chrome. Any thoughts?

Thank you!!

Not quite. Replace all this:

Navigation bar not showing in IE browser?!!

The navigation bar is not showing in Internet Explorer at all! It is just fine, of course, in Safari.
Firefox shows the nav bar but in two lines, and another info box appears for a second then vanishes.
www.thestudio33.com

IE won't show your navigation if the user has Java turned off.
You need to hide the standard iWeb navigation and create your own....
http://iwebfaq.org/site/iWebNavigationmenu.html
You are using the "Darkroom" template and your navigation box is offset to the left - probably because you extended the page width beyond the default.
This template has its problems and slows the download speed of your website.

Please help: navigation bar not working

I've just created a website with 5 main pages that appear on the navigation bar. When I upload the site, only the first two are working. I can access the other three from the main page but when I am in those pages, I cannot access any other pages through the navigation page. I have to click the back button to previous page in Safari. Can anyone help me work out why the navigation bar may not be working?
If I can't get it to work, will I have to move to dreamweaver for Mac or similar software to set up a website. I hope not as iWeb is user friendly - although I also note I cannot create drop-down menus.

There appears to be some sort of shape over the navbar links in the last three pages of the site. You can see it if you type Command+A while viewing the pages. Don't know what it is but make sure there are not objects, text boxes, etc. overlapping the navbar. Also make sure the navbar is located entirely within its area and not overlapping into the body area.

Links work in iweb, but do not publish

NOW the "post new topic" shows! Links made in iweb to external webpages work in iweb, but do not work when I publish to my folder or upload them to my server for my website. The links to other pages within iweb & the email links work in my folder & uploaded. I have redone my page & all links several times & it always works in iweb, but then don't work in the folder when I publish or upload. Even links that start with http:// don't work & my setting are correct for it to recognize them. Thanks so much for any help.

I don't understand. When I made the page the first time, I put the pics on it (page is 1270 pixels wide & fits on my 17" monitor & displays fine in iweb & when I go to the website). & then made the text boxes & sized them to fit around the pics & typed the text in. I tried doing the "wrap" in inspector, but the type just went over the pics & didn't wrap around it. I put the links for the ffrco, nuvet, email & menu in separate "insert link" boxes. The other links were from a copy & paste from the Nuvet website. All links worked perfect while in iweb. but only the email & menu links worked when I published to the folder & uploaded them. iweb is way different to use than Pagemill3, which is what I created my original website on 6 1/2 years ago. But my first computer melted down inside & I don't have the program that created it & the new computer won't take the software that worked on OS 8.6, so have to do the whole website now from scratch & having a terrible time. There are other issues, but the links thing is the most frustrating.
When I redid the page again, I copied & pasted the whole page onto a new page that I had sized & added the background to. The links all worked in iweb & when they didn't work when published to the folder or uploaded, I rechecked the web addresses for all the links & even reentered them, though they were the correct links already in there.
When I made my homepage, I made it to fit a 15" monitor, so anybody could see my website without scrolling. A good friend told me I had the last 15" monitor still in use & to make it fit my 17", so I did.
Thanks so much for looking at it. I really appreciate all your help. I have printed the manuel & been reading that & going to the Help section & I just can't figure it out.

Navigation Bar Not Displaying in Opera10

Hello again,
There seems to be an issue with the navigation container in my website, and it is not displaying at all in Opera10. It displays fine and visible in every other browser. I thought maybe Opera 10 requires some extra position settings, and the navigation bar is at the very top of the page behind the header. So I tried to put a z-index value on the container, to see whether or not it is behind the header, and in fact, I still could not see it.
My website has a header image at the very top of the browser, with a horizontal spry drop down menu right underneath it.
Does anybody have any ideas? I am not sure which details to provide with this question, however I can give any details upon request.
Thanks in advance a thousand times!
Cheers,
Mr.V

I have just read the "new to spry forums?" quick info, and I realized that I only have the version 1.4 framework. I will upgrade to 1.6.1 immediately, and the issue could be possibly resolved.
Sorry for the inconvenience. I will note the details from now on.
Mr.V
