Menu Widget: Text disappears when previewed in browser ?

Hi All,
I've created a site and have a top level page, with a sub-page.
The site uses the Menu widget in Muse to create a menu with dropdowns for the sub-pages. However, when I preview the site in the browser, the state on the menu for the top-level page 'Normal and 'Active' functions disspears.
It does re-appear on rollover, so the browser knows it's there, but it isn't being displayed.
Any idea why?
And how I can fix this?
(Ive attached screenshots of the page within Muse and then the same page once previewed within the browser)
As always, soloutions and replies most apprieciated!
Browser preview
Browser preview on rollover function
Cheers!
Robbie.

Hi Robsta,
Looking at your 1st posted image, above, I would say (recommend) that the 2nd blue guide, from the top (the header guide), should be moved down and put just below your menu ... do this on the 'master page' ... thats the header guide line ... everything 'below' that line is page content (a menu is not page content) hence content changes throughout your website ... everything 'above' that line is your header information and stays in the same place regardless which page you are on and is shown on ALL pages ...
Now, if that doesn't fix the problem (the blue guide that needs moving, should be moved nevertheless) ... is it possible that some of the 'active' states in your menu have got messed up when you were changing your button colours? ... this would only happen if you were editing the menu with the 'Edit Together', 'unticked' ... I can see that the active state is set to grey already hence just asking ... also, sometimes if the 'header' guide is not where it should be, it does hide things below it as it doesn't know what should be shown or not ...so it's just a thought ... ...
cheers,
GemBro

  • Text disappears when previewing/ordering photo books - help!

    I've made a photo book in iPhoto but when I try to preview it or convert to a pdf it gives me an error message and then creates the book without any text. I'm afraid to order it in case the problem appears in the final edition - the text is very important. Any ideas how to solve the problem?
    I've ordered several photo books in the past and never had this problem.

    Sorry to string out this thread but I have the answer. Apple provided me this information and it works. hope it helps your problem, too:
    1) Open iPhoto.
    2) Select the book from the Source list on the left.
    3) Choose Print from the File menu.
    4) Click the Preview button on the bottom left. This will create a portable document format (PDF) file and display the file using the Preview application.
    5) Verify that the text is displayed.
    6) If the text is displayed correctly, and if you are satisfied with the book, close the PDF file, return to iPhoto, and click the Buy Book button. You may skip the rest of these steps.
    7) If the text is not displayed, close the PDF file and quit iPhoto.
    8) While in the Finder, choose Home from the Go menu. Open the Library folder, then open the Preferences folder. Locate the file called "com.apple.iphoto.plist" and drag it to the desktop. This will reset the iPhoto preferences to the default settings.
    (Please note that if the Library is located on a separate partition or hard disk, you may need to point iPhoto to the Library location when you reopen iPhoto. You can do this by holding Option while opening iPhoto.)
    9) Reopen iPhoto and preview the book using steps 2 through 5 above. If you are satisfied with the book, close the PDF file, return to iPhoto, and click the Buy Book button. Then drag com.apple.iphoto.plist to the trash, as it may have been causing the issue.

  • CSS styles disappear when previewed in browser.

    I created a web site following the Getting Started tutorials in Dreamweaver CS6.  However, when I preview in the browser, the main page shows properly but if i click a link, the other pages do not seem to attach to the style sheet - BUT the style sheet reference is present in the code.  Any ideas?
    thanks

    You are close to correct, but not quite there.
    If you have enabled the use of temporary files in PREFERENCES > Preview in browser, when you preview a page from DW, you will actually create a temporary page from the current one and it's that temporary page that is displayed in the browser. Why create a temporary page to preview? Well, if your page's code contains any root relative links (as opposed to document relative links) then those will not work if the page is previewed directly. When a temp file is built, those links in the actual page are converted to document relative links in the temp file, and this temp file is then handed to the browser to preview.
    Why don't root relative links work in a preview? When the browser sees a link like '<link href="/path_to_file.css"', it interprets the "/" as meaning the root of the HARD DRIVE, not the root of the site (browsers know nothing about DW sites), and will not find the linked file at that location (for example, C:/DW_path_to_file.css"). When those links are rewritten in the temp file being previewed as '<link href="path_to_file.css"', it works fine since the browser knows that means to look for the *.css file in the same folder as the file it is previewing.
    Make sense? By the way, this is how DW has *always* worked.

  • Why does added text disappear when I move the cursor

    After adding text to an unprotected .pdf file the text disappears when I move the cursor and want to add a second box of text. The text in the first box reappears when I double click on the space where the box was. How do I set the text so that it remains visible and printable?

    Hi,
    I think the data in the PDF file was filled-in using MAC preview.
    One option is to ask the user to fill the file again using Adobe Reader or Acrobat.
    Or else refer to following link:

    As a student, you might be able to get Office for Mac from the college bookstore at a substantial discount. Otherwise, I think your best option for documents that need to be shared with Office users is to get one of the free Office clones such as LibreOffice.

  • Text disappears when updating story

    When the designer updated a few Incopy stories in the Indesign file, the text disappeared. Anyone seen this before?

    Text disappearing when you update a TOC is usually a symtom of havint put the TOC in the main story thread. The TOC must be in a separate story, not thread to anything else, becasue updating replaces the entire story.

  • Text Disappears when on top of an HTML overlay

    Text Disappears when on top of an HTML overlay. This is a very simple file. It's not even part of an MSO. The text is disappearing when I view in both the desktop content viewer and the iPad.
    I've tried converting to outlines, doubling the layer, copying and pasting back into. Nothing. Any suggestions

    You might also try creating the html and leaving a space for you existing text. Select transparent background for you overlay and the text should be visible.

  • When previewed in browser or on the server the path of my web site repeats folders. However the "href" in the html code does not show the repetition in the path.

    If someone could help me on this one, this would be great. I am creating a web site that has several departments. I have categorized and saved each department in a main folder called "departments" and a subfolder for each one. In the Dreamweaver code view the pop-up menu links seem to show up properly, but when I preview in browser or upload to server "page not found" comes up because for some reason the address changes. Some parts of the address seem to be appearing twice, sometimes the entire path will appear twice as shown below:
    http://www.graphicmechanic.com/DEKALBCOUNTY/departments/parks-and-recreation/departments/p arks-and-recreation/pr-arabiamtn-map.html
    that is incorrect and it takes me to "web page cannot be found".
    It is obviously repeating the folders (hence the "departments/parks-and-recreation" twice. The correct link is:
    http://www.graphicmechanic.com/DEKALBCOUNTY/departments/parks-and-recreation/pr-arabiamtn- map.html
    The link issues are happening in the pop-up menu. For example if you go to http://www.graphicmechanic.com/DEKALBCOUNTY/departments/parks-and-recreation/pr-arabiamtn. html and rollover the link called "Arabia Mountain" in the links to the left side of the page, then click the pop-up menu link entitled "Arabia Mountain Map" that's where the problem occurs.
    Can anyone tell me how I can fix this problem. I don't know what I should do with the code since it already appears correct in html view.
    Please help if you can...
    Thanks in advance for any possible help you can provide...

    The link issues are happening in the pop-up menu.
    This problem usually happens when the menu is either a server-side include or a library item using links relative to the document. When you reference a page at a different level of the folder hierarchy, the document-relative links no longer point to the correct destination.
    Change the links in the menu to be relative to the site root.
    A document-relative link usually looks like this:
    <a href="../products/index.html">Products</a>
    A link relative to the site root begins with a forward slash like this:
    <a href="/products/index.html">Products</a>

  • Why does my text disappear when I apply an effect to it?

    Recently, whenever I try applying an effect to my text layer(s), the text completely disappears from the layer and therefore is not showing up when I preview my composition. How do I stop this? I'm using CS5.5 if that helps.

    Just the text in my text layer is what's disappearing. I import my image file, drag it onto the board and then click to add a text layer. I type out my text and then go into the effects & presets, select Animation Presets --> Text --> Animate In -->,Straight In MultiLine, drag the effect into the text layer and then my text disappears, as shown in the second image below  ...This just recently started happening to me and I don't know how to get it back. I'm using After Effects CS5.5. I'm very new at this programs so I apologize for not being able to provide a ton of info...

  • When using Typewriter tool, text disappears when I click out of box...

    Hi!
    I'm sure I've seen this question addressed here before but I cannot make the "Search" work.  Every time I search I get "no results" even when I search for something as obvious as PDF.
    So please forgive me posting a question that I'm pretty sure has been answered in the past...
    When I use the Typewriter tool to type some text, and then I click out of the text box that the Typewriter tool created, the text that I typed disappears.  If I double-click on the typewriter text box then the text reappears.  Then if I click out, the text disappears.  And so on...
    How do I make that text stay "viewable" even when I click out of the typewriter text box?
    Thank you so much!!
    Diane

    Hi Larry!!
    Here is an image where the box with the Typewriter text (the word "test) is "activated", with the comments list showing down below but without the "test" comment in the comment list being highlighted.  At the green "plus sign arrow" in the upper-right corner is the word "test".
    Now below is an image where the box with the Typewriter text (the word "test") is not "activated" (but you can see the blue box where the word "test" should be showing), with the comments list showing down below, with the "test" comment highlighted, and the "Comments" dropdown menu so that you can see what's black in the dropdown menu.
    When I clicked on the "test" comment in the comment list, the word "test" went away in the upper-right corner and the blue box showed up instead.
    Am I showing what you need to see or should I show something different?
    Thank again so much!!

  • Dynamic text disappears when clicking bold button.

    Dear friends,
    I have dynamic text inside a movieclip, that I can make it rotate.
    the dynamic text properties are : anti-alias for anmations and I emdedded all characters.
    When I click on the bold button the the text disappears.
    bold_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.Click, on_bold);
    function on_bold(e:MouseEvent):void
         var my_format:TextFormat = new TextFormat();
         my_format.bold = true;
         my_mc.my_txt.setTextFormat(my_format);
    How can I solve this problem.

    the easiest (and not very elegant way) is to add textfields that contain those fonts (and embed them).  you can remove your textfields from the display list or otherwise, make them not visible on-stage.

  • Text disappears when editing a layer in Dreamweaver 8

    I have had a problem for a long time now with text
    disappearing while I'm editing it in a layer. If I scroll up to the
    top of the page and down again (sometimes a couple of times), the
    text will reappear, but this is cumbersome (and rather annoying).
    Does anyone else have this problem? Is it something I'm doing
    incorrectly? Any help anyone can offer would be greatly
    appreciated.

    Do you still have this problem when you
    select that layer in the layers panel?

  • Site won't display correctly when 'Published' to Business Catalyst but does when 'Preview' in browse

    Basically I have a subscription to Muse and with that the ability to host one site with Business Catalyst. When checking the first site I designed I'd use 'Preview in Browser' and the site occasionaly displayed incorrectly, so I changed my habits to publishing the work-in-progress site to the BC url with this current site.
    Unfortunately there are multiple display problems with doing this; the two images below show the difference between 'Publish' to the BC domain and 'Preview site in browser'.
    I've cleared the cache of the browser multiple times and used both Firefox and Safari and the problem still remains. I'm assuming it's a problem with Business Catalyst?
    Does anyone have a solution for this? Has data become corrupted in BC, and if so is there a way of 'flushing' the data held on the BC site clean to start from scratch?
    Would really appreciate some help here as it's impossible to show my client the current state of the site
    Thanks in advance

    Hi Phil
    I checked the site and i can see all the images in page.
    Can you try to check with a different browser or if possible on a different system or device ?
    Thanks,

  • Automatic updating when preview in browser

    Hi, could anyone tell me how to get DWCS3 to prompt me to save changes to a page when I go to preview in a browser? It always used to, but now it goes direct to the preview and I have to save changes manually. What did I do?
    Jazzygeofft

    Under Edit >Preferences > Preview in Browser, if you uncheck the option for: Preview using temporary file
    you will be asked to save before you can preview in the browser of your choice.

  • Why can't Chrome find the webpage when Previewing in Browser?

    Hi -
    This is thoroughly bizarre to me.
    I can preview any site I'm working on using any browser I have except Chrome (current version 33.0.1750.152).
    As an example - when I use Preview in Browser - Chrome says "the webpage is not found" - the path to the page is:
    file://external-drive/_PROJECTS/CLIENT/_files-from-client/_SITE-031614/index.html
    My next step is to manually navigate to the page using Chrome's File/Open.  This works perfectly but when the page appears the path is different:
    file:///Volumes/external-drive/_PROJECTS/CLIENT/_files-from-client/_SITE-031614/index.html
    This second path is the same path in the Manage Sites/Site/Local Site Folder line.  All other browsers (FFox, Safari, Opera) use this second path.  But for some reason Chrome has shortened the path to an incorrect address.  Weird!
    I don't think this is related to Mavericks because it was happening before that upgrade.
    Has anyone else had this happen?  Can anyone explain how I can fix this?
    TIA your insight.
    JL2
    BTW - other details:
    Dreamweaver version 12 (CS6), Mac OS X 10.9.2.

    Hi jl200,
    I have the same problem since few weeks, and I am absolutely sure that jdaco answer isn't correct. All my files are on a desktop (iMac hard drive) all times and Dreamweaver has a problem with a preview in the Chrome browser. Few weeks ago everything was OK, so there isn't a problem with the files location. I think the problem has started after the last Dreamweaver update. Unfortunately I don't have any idea what to do to resolve this issue.
    You're right, the answer provided might be part of the problem but it's not the solution to the whole problem. My files are located on the computer too and Chrome will not preview them, sometimes, most of the time.
    I can't be asked to find out exactly why so I use Firefox or Safari.
