Link iWeb Navigation Bar to External Page

I want to add a link in the nav bar to my MobileMe Gallery page. On my old website origonally built with iWeb 2006, I created a blank page and then edited the index.html file for the site with the url for the Gallery. With iWeb 2011 (or is it 2009?), it doesn't seem to save the source files in the same location by default (Sites folder). Instead, they appear to be all within the domain file in the ~/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder, and the index.html file no longer exists in the same form.
I've tried using a javascript script to autoforward, but I don't like this solution because it doesn't integrate the Gallery into the webpage in a seemless manner (the back button is cumbersome). Right now, I have hyper linked text statement that opens up the gallery, but this is awkeward as well. I would prefer not to do a whole custom nav bar, because I like the ease in updating it as I change pages (something that happens often). Does anyone have any ideas?

there are several ways to do this.
method #1:
1) add a page to your site, that would a an item to navbar
2) in this page add an html snippet with iframe code link to your gallery:
<iframe src="http://path/to/your/gallery/" frameborder="0" width="700px" height="800px" scrolling="no" allowTransparency="true" ></iframe>
you need to change width and height dimensions to fit your gallery. this is the easiest method, but the only way to go back is to use browser back button... not very ideal.
method #2, open a page in new window; example:
http://temp.cyclosaurus.com/NavBarAltered/My_Albums/My_Albums.html
click on Gallery will open a new window and go to google site.
code:

Making navigation to an external page in faces-config.xml

Hi all,
I want to make a navigation to an external page in faces-config.xml, or for example to an absolute URL like www.oracle.com. Is there a way to put a navigation like this in faces-config.xml? As I know the <to-view-id> tag only references a relative page address on the ViewController project.
Thanks in advance,
S/\EE|)

I want to go to a page of another application (I've split my application into several applications) so I need to use absolute address. As the external page is part of my application, I want to see it in my faces-config in order to know the outgoing pages from my page and manage them when necessary.

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?

How do i make a navigation bar for all pages

Hi friends !
I want the same navigation bar to appear on all the web pages of my website. (As these are the common things that all the webpages will have). But I didn't find any option to use the navigation bar as a template.
Will I have to copy and paste the same navigation bar on all the pages (let's say 50 to 60 pages, I will have). It will be very tiresome and tedious job to do.
And also if I make even a minor change in the navigation bar then I will have to change it in all 50-60 pages.
What should I do ?
Please help me in this regard.
Imagine a 100 or 200 page site, perfectly functioning and on the air. Then, one day, you need to add or delete some button, or simply change a link. You need to change the menubar in ALL 200 pages, and then re-publish them all. Quite a work, ah ?

Although Dreamweaver Templates and Library items are suitable tools for doing this, they're tedious and cumbersome at best. They get old very quickly.
By far the most efficient method is to set your navigation bar up as a Server Side Include (SSI).
SSIs are not Dreamweaver specific, they're a general web technology available on any server.
A good primer here

Do you already have a hosting account? Does it have PHP available?

Not with SSIs. Simple sitewide menu updates take a few seconds.
You edit a single text file locally (either button labels or a CSS rule for styling the button), upload (1-2 seconds) and every page on the site is instantly updated.
Much better than DW Templates.

Add Image in the navigation bar of Help page

Hi,
I wanted to add image next to to the Search in the Help page navigation bar as in snapshot below:
I wanted to add an image i.e the the logo next to above button in navigation bar. I tried adding , howevr could only add as Header, not right in the navigation pane. Correct me if I m wrong, the navigation control can be configured while generation web output. I coudnt find any other option to do this.
Please let me your inputs on this.
Thanks,
Pallavi

Hi all
Sorry Colum, I think you are wrong. That looks exactly like a WebHelp Search dialog.
Pallavi, I am thinking the answer for you may be a simple one. Use the WebHelp skin editor. There you should see an option to choose the image used for the Go button.
I'm not exactly sure what version you are using. But I'll insert a screen capture of RoboHelp 7 below.
My thought here is that you could create an image that includes your company logo along with the Go button. Then use that image for the Go button. Sure, both the company logo as well as the Go button would be clickable, but it should do the job, no?
Cheers... Rick

Copying navigation bar to other pages

I created a graphic representing a navigation bar, that I
then turned into an image map with several links. I also did pop up
windows for several of these links. Now I find I can't copy this
navbar to other pages. Any suggestions on how to do this?

1. Don't use the DW/FW pop-up menus.
2. Post a link to your page so we can see what it is you have
done.

Horizontal navigation bar stretches across page

Just started using Dreamweaver CS3 and using Missing Manual
tutorial in chapter 9 (page. 365) #13.
My problem is with IE 5.2.3, which is installed and I never
use. I checked my tutorial in safari and opera and everything
looked fine. But, in IE the navigation bar that is supposed to be a
single line [home/features/ask the experts] under the banner is now
stretching across the page in a vertical position. The tutorial
said how to fix, but does not work. I am thinking the book is wrong
since I tested their finished page in IE and it is doing the same
thing. Mine looks just like this

How do I fix this?
Thanks,
A Beginner

Hummm IE5x probably isn't worth bothering about anymore. With
IE 8 on
the way tough on the very small percentage of IE5 user.
None of the stats for my few sites shows anyone using IE5
anymore and if
so the percentage is so low that in my opinion it isn't worth
the effort
of trying to resolve issues in that particular browser.
Move on and make sure it looks ok in IE6 upwards.

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?

Dead link in navigation bar

all the links in my nav bar work, bar one.
i've double-checked this issue and done the following:
1 checked there are no overlapping frames on the link
2 duplicated the page, deleted the old one, and republished
3 restarted my mac!
4 tried the hyperlinks active - in iweb. it works then, but not in my browser (safari)
5 reset cache in safari
i've also trawled discussion, and got everything but this particular issue. so, here i am, on my cyberknees, begging for help!

The iWeb default navigation is not the best way to go. If PC users don't have Java turned on in Internet Explorer, your navigation won't display.
Self built navigation gives you a lot more options in terms of fonts, colors, rollover colors, placement on the page etc. Once you site grows you will want to have a main and sub navigation menus anyway.

My iweb Navigation bar wont work...

when someone goes to my site they cant click on the pages. can someone please help?

Message was edited by: HG Bucko

When you publish to a folder you will get two things - a site folder with the same name as you gave your site within iWeb and a separate index.html file. You actually need to upload both of these to your hosts server to ensure that everything gets uploaded and your file structure stays in place.
If you upload the contents separately, there is a risk that your file structure will not be the same and that some files will not get uploaded - namely the scripts file for your nav bar.
Try uploading both files together as suggested and seeing if this makes a difference.

Navigation Bar on Welcome Page?

I just made a website as a test. I put in a welcome page first, of course. I then added a blog page. On the blog page the nav bar lists both welcome and blog. On my welcome page the bar at the top just lists "welcome". Shouldn't it list any other pages for quick access? I can add links to a side bar, but I thought any additional pages would show at the top nav bar. Help anyone?

Yes, it should list the same links on every page...and every page should have a link for itself unless you have chosen not to include the page in the links using the Inspector.
If you have not tried already, try emptying your browser cache to make sure that you are not seeing old, cached information. In Safari, look under the Safari menu item and select "Empty cache...". Then reload your website and see if your menus don't all show up correctly.

Need help linking spry tabbed panel from external page

Could use some help. I need to link to a specific spry tabbed panel on page "A" from a link on page "B" I have tried several "solutions" on the web and had no luck. When I add the code needed at the bottom of the code where you initiate the instance, it stacks the content of ALL panels in the first panel, and renders the tabs inoperable. This is a key feature I need in a new site being developed.

Depending on what the code looks like, it can do all sorts of things.
Please be reminded that the best way for us to help you is by you supplying a link to your site with a one sentence description of the problem.

If you go to the Properties for the Folder in Discoverer Administrator, there is a Dependents tab that should list any workbooks using the folder. This only works for workbooks saved to the database, so won't help with any created using Discoverer Desktop. If you are gathering statistics and have the The Discoverer V5 EUL business area and its workbooks installed, it can tell you about Folders Used as well. It contains information about queries run whether the workbook is saved to the database or to the file system, but wouldn't contain inforamation about workbooks that had been created but not run.
