Mac Os X update disappearing navigation menu on IWeb

After updating Mac Os X to 10.5.6 I was working in IWeb...doing the same stuff I do everyday.
Attempted to "publish to folder"...said I had an publishing error. Never done this before.
Then, I noticed that the 3 pages that I had worked on...all had the navigation menu at the top of the page missing.
I did nothing related to the navigation menu.
Any insight and wisdom out there?

Thanks!

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Log into another account on your Mac and see if the problem persists. You may have to copy the domain file from your account (User/Library/Application Support/iWeb) to the Shared folder in order to get it to the other account. Then move it to the desktop in the other account and double click on it to open with iWeb. If you get the same problem in the other account than a reinstall of iWeb is indicated. To do so you'll have to delete the current application and all files with "iWeb" in the file name that reside in the HD/Library/Receipts folder. Then reinstall from the disk it came on, run the latest update, repair disk permissions and reboot.

Change the navigation menu in iweb

I have buy an iweb template that has the navigation menu always fixed. No matter is you move the mouse over the links to the pages, if you are in the welcome page or blog, the text is always the same.
I have ask to author of the template to make the active page text grayed out but he wants again money because this is customizing request of the template...
Is there a way to change the color of the text of the navigation menu? It is enough that the active page is highlighted.
Thank you

Thank you for the answers.
If it is possible I don't want create nothing because it complicates the stuffs (I'm a very beginner in this things). I have tried the javascript way but it don't modifies the behavior of the menu.
Excavating in the iWeb application folder I have reach this file that seems the responsable of the navigation bar: iWeb.app/Contents/Resources/Themes/_Simple\ Info\ orange.webtheme/Italian.lproj/Welcome.webtemplate/com.apple.iweb.widget.navbar. Welcome.plist
I have open it with Pref Setter:
.navbar {
font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, sans-serif;
font-size: .8em;
color: #666666;
line-height: 30px;
border-bottom: 3px solid #ccc;
.navbar-bg {
text-align: right;}
.navbar-bg ul {
list-style: none;
margin: 0px;
padding: 0px;
li {
list-style-type: none;
display: inline;
padding: 0px 5px 0px 0px;
li a {
text-decoration: none;
padding: 10px;
color: #666666;

Publishing to .mac pay pal buttons disappear/How to integrate iweb enhancer

When I publish my website to a folder, the index html file gives a perfect working model of my website. When I publish to .mac, the pay pal buttons disappear and leave the same raw input that appears on the iweb page.
Could it relate to iweb enhancer?I understand how to use iweb enhancer when publishing to a folder. How is it used when publishing to .mac?
CAN ANYONE PLEASE HELP! I must get the site correctly published ASAP to sell concert tickets and time is running out!!

It will work just fine publishing it to your own domain / host. Just insert the code as a Web Snippet and upload it as you normally would.
I don't know about changing the PayPal link but you could try to create your own custom made image and just take the PayPal url from the code they gave you and connect it as a hyperlink in iWeb -- I would think it would work fine.

I run 3 email accounts on Mac Mail, all 3 disappeared after doing the latest OS X update. I have tried adding the accounts back but no mail appears. Help!

I run 3 email accounts on Mac Mail, all 3 disappeared after doing the latest OS X update. I have tried adding the accounts back but no mail appears. Help!

The mailbox list is divided into categories with headings in caps, such as ON MY MAC. When you hover the cursor over one of those headings (except for MAILBOXES), you should see the word Show or Hide on the right. Click Show. The MAILBOXES category can't be hidden.
In each category, the mailboxes are arranged in groups, such as Inbox. To the left of each group is a small disclosure triangle. If the triangle points to the right, click it so that it points down.

IWeb navigation menu not updating in browsers

This is also possibly an airport extreme cache problem, but really unsure...
I've updated my website in iWeb 08 (vers 3.0.4) and published it via ftp. It all works when I look at it via my iPhone on the 3G network and looks as it should. When I look at it on any of the 4 laptops at home they all display the same error (whether using safari, firefox or IE and on different platforms but all on the same network) and other than the formatting looking terrible, the main issue is that the navigation menu is displaying as that of an older version of the website. I simplified the navigation menu about 5 days ago and it is still displaying pages in it that have been renamed, moved or deleted. I've check the files on the ftp server and they have all been correctly renamed or deleted. Where are my computers getting this old data from?
I've reset Safari several times, restarted my computers, restarted my airport extreme (as this must have something to do with the problem??) but to no avail.
Any suggestions? I'd like to view my 'current' website to check for bugs, but get an old version that just looks buggy. Why can't I get my browsers to display the page correctly.
Thoughts appreciated!
The page is at:
www.thebutlershow.com
I can still see in the nav menu - Home / About / Review / Company ... etc.
It should show - 'Home / Shows / Company / News & Media ... etc.
Thanks, Skye

Fixed...
I connecting a USB mobile internet dongle and turned off airport on my laptop so I could access the pages via a different means. They came up looking as they should via the mobile network. I then turned airport back on on that laptop and refreshed - and the page remained as it should have.
Don't know why but this has now fixed the viewing errors on all the other computers in the house. Fixed one... fixed all.
Strange.

A solution for Navigation Menu Problems

Many people have been complaining about iWeb messing up its rollover navigation menus at the top of each webpage. This phenomenon usually occurs when one has an existing site, and attempts to add another page to the site, thus requiring the menu at the top to be changed. What you will see if you visit the page is an incorrect navigation menu. The item may be cropped funny. Or it will show the wrong item name for a particular link. Or you will see duplicate names. Or the rollovers won't match the unhilited item names.
There seems to be a problem that sometimes occurs in which iWeb is unable to overwrite the previous versions of the navigation menus on your page up on the .Mac volume. If you run into this problem, this is how you fix it.
- Log into you iDisk. Navigate the folders to get to the offending page folder. The path will be Web/Sites/iWeb/your page name/your page name_files/
- Inside this folder you will see a series of png images which begin with navbar_. Select them all, and drag them to your trash can. They will be immediately deleted.
- Return to iWeb, and publish your page again. This will replace the navbar images with the updated versions.
This seems to work reliably. Anyone else have any experience with this technique?

Narly
There are various different approaches to this, which one really works, anyones guess!
The number one suspect is the cahing on the .mac servers, see my site, my bar is all over the place I made the changes last night! (Or the cahce of your own isp)
Peviously discussed options:
1. Clear your browser cahce, a few times!
2. Get someone else to hit you site, I did and I saw "menu look watch watch contact"
3. Using inspector, Page Tab, uncheck the box "Include page in navigation menu", publish your site, then recheck the boxes and republish.
4. Make a change to each page, move an image one pixel left and then back again and republish.
5. Press the Option key, between the ctrl + Apple key, while you select Publish, it changes Publish to Publish All Pages, kind of a forced refresh.
But generally its trial and error, and time!

Smart way to auto update pop-up menu in nav bar?

Smart way to keep updating pop-up menu in Nav bar ?
I created a template in DW 8. It is used to generate many
other pages for the site. only the page content region is editable.
There is a nav bar in the template. Some buttons of the nav bar
display pop-up menu when MouseOver . Those pop-up menu need to be
changed from time to time. What is the best way to automatically
update the pop-up menu in those templated-generated files, using
template (I tried to define the nav bar as editable region,
modified the pop-ups and saved the template. I got a lots of
unexpected problems, DW8 even crashed), using libray items or
something else? I am a relatively new DW developer. Much appreciate
if someone could help.

If the navigation is in a non-editable region of the
template, then changes
to it will propagate automatically to all child pages - are
you not seeing
that happen?
> I tried to define the nav bar as editable region
You wouldn't usually want to do that.
> I got a lots of unexpected problems, DW8 even
> crashed
You must have made other errors. Doing something like this
would surely not
crash DW.
The only problem with having the navigation in the
non-editable region of
the template is that a change to it will touch *every* file
in the site,
each of which must then be uploaded again. To solve this
problem you can
use server-side includes for the navigation. Then you would
make your
change to the include file, upload it, and all pages would
reflect that
change.

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.
Mac OS X (10.4.4)

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"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.d
td"><html
xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"><head><title></ti
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.

Add a link to the navigation / menu bar

I would like to add a home button infront of the My Workspace button in the navigation/menu bar at the top of my Vibe page.
What jsp of file should I edit to achieve this?

I didn't look for that JSP, but used the branding for a high level "menu" AND wrote my own JSP to have a dynamic horizontal menu based on a portion of the workspace tree. The problem with changing Vibe's grey menu bar is that any upcoming updates might destroy your tweak. I have a few of those I need to keep in mind whenever an update or patch is done.
With my JSP adding, removing or modifying workspaces/folders in the identified branch automagically changes on the fly generated horizontal menu with the next refresh/visit of the landing page using the JSP. The menu can be for any branch of your workspace tree. If a visitor doesn't have access to a workspace or folder, the menu skips right over it automagically as well.
You can find this homebrewed JSP and key details at : Use this nifty JSP to make a dynamic horizontal menu from a branch of your workspace tree | Novell User Communities
It allows you to reorder the menu items and even drop some workspaces/folders from the menu with a simple trick explained in the article.
To see the JSP at work, go to CSDECSO - Conseil scolaire de district des écoles catholiques du Sud-Ouest or any of our 30 or so school web sites being implemented within our existing Vibe instance. You won't be able to change the tree branch, but you will see the menu. Some schools have slightly different menu choices, if you poke around long enough to find these differences. I just made them accessible to the public a few weeks ago.
Don't forget to use the integrated GoogleTranslate (generally near the Vibe printer icon in upper right corner beneath the branding and grey menu) to convert the bulk of our sites' content to any one of the 60 or so languages supported by Google. I have an article explaining how this was done as well. Of course, it is an automated translation, so don't expect perfection and don't be offended if it comes out the wrong way.

Help needed: navigation menu doesn't display on Explorer but does on Safari

Can someone help. I have a site that has a navigation menu at the top and when I publish to a folder or view on my mac the pages and navigation works correctly. When I view with explorer, the navigation menu doesn't display correctly (at all) and I get errors on the page. Any ideas what could be causing this

Your iWeb navigation will not display in IE if Java is turned off.
To get round this you can hide the navigation and build your own.....

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.

Mac OS X Update can't be installed

I am trying to update Mac OS X for my computer (from 10.4.6 to 10.4.8), but I keep getting an error message saying:
"The update 'Mac OS X Update Combined (PowerPC)' can't be installed.
Sorry, an unexpected error occurred.
The installer package has been moved to the Trash. To try again, open the package from the finder."
There have also been problems in the past with installing other programs.
Has anyone encountered this problem?

Hi Jenny,
Did you repair permissions before trying to install the update?
There may be a problem with the hard drive's directory that needs repair. Put the install disk in the drive and start while holding down the "c" key. Once started, select Disk utility from the menu, click on the hard drive on the left and then click Repair Disk.
If Software Update can't install it, go to the Downloads area of S the Support site and download the Combined updater for 10.4.8 and install it outside of Software Update.

Suddenly no links in Navigation menu

I am building an iWeb site with several pages. They showed perfectly every link to the other pages in the naviagtion menu.
Out of the blue, when I opened iWeb today, all links in the navigation menus are gone: only an empty box is left unterneath every pages title. What's wrong?

Same problem with .mac server! Only after upgrade to iWeb 2.0.2
Black dot appears on left of screen where the navigation menu should be. (Navigation Menu is checked) Also the Photo Albums and Photo pages do not display any albums or photos. I am viewing the .mac site on a mac with Safari and Firefox.
When exported to a local file or a 3rd part server the site works as expected but no luck on .mac.
Using iWeb 2.0.2, with darkroom theme.
No success with iWeb 08 and .mac. Anyone found a fix or work around yet?
