New Page CSS - Halo Left Nav

I am creating a new page using DW's built-in page designs.
The page that I am working with is the Halo Left Nav - which some
with the CSS and other files.
I created a menu in flash that want to use throughout my
site. I also want to use the template menu. When I insert the flash
menu at the top of the page and move the MastHead down below 52px,
the global links bring up the subglobal links for an instance and
then it loses focus. If I move the masthead up then it goes back to
working fine.
The problem is that I want the flash to be at 0px Top and the
masthead section at 53px top since the flash is 52px in length.
If I drag and drop the Masthead down then it automatically
writes to the CSS the new px locations.
I'm sure it is something simple. Please help.

Test server is down at the moment. I am attaching the HTML
and CSS. When I mouseover the Global Links the first time the
sublinks stay with focus until the mouse is moved. After the first
time, I mouseover the Global Links, the submenu almost does a type
of a blink on the screen and then it is gone.
Thanks for the help.

CSS-Page Design- Halo, Left Nav

Hello,
How are the Section Links activated in the CSS-Page
Design-Halo, Left Nav. Should the Section Links be drop down menus,
or are they simply to be used as hyperlinks?

The HALO templates not the best choice for anyone, really.
They are fiddly,
and awkward.
How comfortable are you with HTML, CSS, and javascript?

IE display prob with Halo Left Nav CSS

I used "Halo Left Nav" stylesheet building my site. The
problem is that in long lists only in Windows IE a blank area
appears at the top of the content div. Incidentally it drops
exactly to the end of one of the divs in the page nav area. It's
only indirectly related to the size of the content area.
Sample
page
It's not strictly amount of html but appears to be
interaction between div tags and content.
My mail if anybody has
encountered this before and knows.
thanks

The HALO templates suck lots of unsuspecting users in just
like the pop-up
menus. If you are not pretty comfortable with HTML and CSS
and javacsript
you will struggle with these. How do you fare there?

Help with halo left nav

Hello Everyone,
This is my first time posting something on the macromedia
forum. I was looking to create a personal website, and first used
(laugh ) frontpage, but then switched to dreamweaver. I like the
"Halo Left Nav" template, yet need help. And yes, I am a
dreamweaver noob.
1) On the top, how do you change the links for the global
links and the submenu links.
2) How do I make it so the top stays there the whole time,
but only the bottom part changes. I know you must use frames, but
is there a specific way to do it.
Thanks for you help
Email me at [email protected] if needed

As a DW noob, I caution you that the HALO templates will be
quite
frustrating for you. They are really intended either as -
* learning tools, or
* page templates for those familiar and comfortable with HTML
and CSS and
javascript
If you are trying to build something to actually put on the
web, I would
suggest that you consider starting a bit lower on the totem
pole! 8)

Template Halo Left Nav

Hi,
I am encountering problems using the Halo Left Nav and I
don't know what I am doing wrong. Whenever I try to replace the
Capsule Story text (below the Capsule Story heading, so let´s
say the ´content´), when I am replacing the text in the
last cell, the design changes (the left column or the right column
changes and becomes bigger than the left or right one). What is the
problem here and how can I solve this? Help!

Just tell me first -
How comfortable are you with HTML, javascript, and CSS. If
the answer to
any of those is "not very" then you are definitely on thin
ice here. The
Halo templates are fiddly, and arcane in their approach, and
really should
be removed from the product.

Creating new page without linking to nav bar

I am creating a website that will have lots of pages. How can I create a page that doesn't link to my nav bar? IE.. I have home, about myself, resources etc.. each time I make a new page and name it, it automatically lists the webpage name in my nav bar. I only want say 5 topics in my nav bar but will have well over 50 pages in my site.. How do I do this? Thanks.

Hi,
and welcome to the Discussion Forums.
How can I have pages which do not display in the navigation menu?
1. Open iWeb then select a page you don't want to display in the top navigation bar
2. Open the Inspector and go to the 'Page' tab
3. Uncheck the "Include page in navigation menu" box
4.Now this page will not appear in the navigation menu but the navigation menu will still appear on that page as the "Display navigation menu" is checked (unless you uncheck that one too)
Regards,
Cédric

DW: "Halo Left Nav" template

I am trying to create more space between the top margin (for
my header graphic) and the Nav. bar with pop-up/down sub-links.
Problem is that when I shifted everything downwards, the pop-up
subglobal navs don't stay open as well when I try to hover the
mouse over them. I've spent hours trying to figure out how to fix
this. Can anyone help? I've uploaded what I've done so far.
Here is the file:
http://www.trappmusic.com/ea_index.html
Is this something that has to be fixed with CSS or the Java
Script? Either way I am very confused about this. I've attached the
CSS code.
Many thanks,
Tom

And it only shows how really bizarre this menu system is....

New SpryWidget .CSS for a New Page

I have the whole spry arsenal of files on a website in a separate folder. I am already using several widgets and functions from that and among others also a "spry collapsible panel" widget on one of the pages.
Now, I would like to use it once again on a new page (on the same site), but when I insert the widget it gives me the same SpryCollapsiblePanel.css as the one already used for the previous widget. But I want to give the panel a different look and feel as it has some other purpose on the new page.
What is the correct procedure to get a fresh untampered "SpryCollapsiblePanel.css" for the new widget on a new page?
Thank you!

I notice (finally got the page!) that the lowest element in the 'drop up' menu overlays the main menu title...a byproduct of needing perhaps one more item's height in margin-top negative pixels!
I suppose it is a small consolation, but IE 8 seems to be rendering the menus accurately, with the sub-submenus flying out relative to their own submenus.
The only workaround that comes to mind (for all the other browsers out there) is to set up new classes to apply to subsubmenus:
ul.MenuBarHorizontal ul    /*this is the usual markup; you can leave this in */
    margin-top:-177px;
    padding: 0;
    list-style-type: none;
    font-size: 100%;
    z-index: 1020;
    cursor: default;
    width: 160px;
    position: absolute;
    left: -1000em;
/*add the following, to offset the top margin by multiples of the height of a single item */
ul.MenuBarHorizontal ul ul.three {margin-top: 90px;}
ul.MenuBarHorizontal ul ul.two {margin-top: 60px;}
ul.MenuBarHorizontal ul ul.one {margin-top: 30px;}
For instance, the Ladakh Treks subitems want to offset from the top 30px to align with their parent, Ladakh Treks, so I use the <ul class="one"> to drop that sublist 30px down from the top of the container.
<li><a tabindex="-1" href="http://www.artcraftemporium.com/preview_wildvent/treks.html" target="_blank" class="MenuBarItemSubmenu">Ladakh Treks</a>
      <ul class="one">
             <li><a tabindex="-1" href="http://www.artcraftemporium.com/preview_wildvent/stok_kangri_exp.html" target="_blank">Stok Kangri Expedition</a></li>
             <li><a tabindex="-1" href="http://www.artcraftemporium.com/preview_wildvent/markha1.html" target="_blank">Markha Valley</a></li>
        </ul>
</li>
This solution does not work in IE8, which had already worked the way you intended without monkeying around with the top margin. I don't know how it works in IE7.
I have not used conditional markup (I know there are people out there who have, and you could research it!), but one could attempt to put a conditional markup around those class definitions in the stylesheet that would not call on them when your site encounters IE8.

Created new page, upon opening for second time, not finding css or doc

I created a brand new page. I created CSS styles. I made the CSS an external style sheet. I worked on the document for a couple of hours, then closed and quit DW CS4. Finally got back to working on it today. When I open the document and make a change to one of the previously created CSS rules, I get an error that says "an unexpected error occurred while trying to read style-sheet information." I hit ok.
When I click on the name of the css external style sheet, pennyhill.css that shows at the top left of my index.html page, it says pennyhill.css cannot be found. if the file exists on the server, use the files panel to get the file from the server. If I click back on the source code to the left of the css fle name, it tells me the index.html file cannot be found.
I searched this forum and tried a couple of things that were suggested to others having similar problems. I have links relative to document clicked in the manage sites area and in preferences>preview in browser I have preview using temp file checked. I think I have a path problem but for the life of me I just don't know how to fix this.
Here is a url to the page:
http://www.pennyhillfurnishings.com
Can anyone help? Thanks.

I am just trying to be thorough. You are asking the questions, and I am answering not just for you but for others who may happen upon your question and want to know a little more.
Regarding buggy-ness: It's all personal opinion, after all. I have not had any buggy experiences with DW. Your friend has, and that's her experience, which is valuable. Personal stories both. If you have buggy experiences with DW, then you will also think it buggy. A lot depends on the rest of your computer system, what operating system you are using, etc. etc. But I still do not believe that it is, across the board, buggy.
What do you think the difference between Save and Save All is? You have actually figured it out, even if you have not articulated it. Save saves the file that you are working on. Period. It does not save the auxiliary files at the same time. Save All saves all files that are open in DW at the time.
I am not Adobe. I have no idea why they chose to make both a Save and a Save All. But I use both of them daily.
Dreamweaver gives you many choices in terms of your personal use of the program. What it does not do is duplicate the functioning of another program...like GoLive...completely. It is Dreamweaver, it is not GoLive. Things you like there may not appear here, etc.
I apologize for making you feel that I am being condescending, and ignorant is a term I would NEVER use. But the fact remains that as we learn (and yes, we are all still learning), we develop our intuitions for a program. I learn something new every day, and I've been at it a while.
My question for you is, what possible difference does it make to you that there are both a Save and a Save All? It is not common, in my experience, for features to become fewer as a software product progresses through time. I'm unaware of any noticeable savings (in any dimension) to limiting the functions to simply a Save All.
In fact, I frequently have open files in one website and files from another defined website that I am using for reference. I do not always want those reference pages to be saved when working in the first site. I realize they will always be saved in the correct place, but if I am altering them on the fly to see if something will work, I do not always want to save my experimentation.
So I guess that's the long-form answer to your, "You uppity woman, you," but that's how it is.
I wish you only the best,
Beth

Guided Nav. Link does not open in a new page

Hi,
I am using Guided navigation links in OBIEE dashboards to link some of my reports.
When i click on the Link it opens the report on the same page. Instead i have to open the report in a new page. This Option is available in 'Link OR Image' section, not in 'Guided Nav. Link' section. Please suggest me if there is any way to achieve this.
I am using 'Guided Nav. Link' because I need to feed the dashboard prompt values to the navigated reports and this option is not available in 'Link OR Image' .
Please help me out
Thanks,
Santanu

yes Guided nav doesnot open in a new page so if you need them in a new page u shd use the link or image which has a option for a new page so is there any thing restricting you using link or image things if so you can tell them so we can discuss for a better option

CSS for background image not transfering from template to new page

I have a gradient .gif in my templates which suddenly no longer transfers from the template to a new page created from the template. Everything else about the template transfers. I'm using Dreamweaver CS5 on a Mac running OS 10.6. I've pasted the CSS from the template and the new page below. I've tried the usual voodoo--restart program, restart computer, repair permissions, delete preference file, delete personal configuration file.
CSS from Template:
.container {
    background-color: #ececec;
    background-image: url(../images/faux_column.png);
    background-repeat: repeat-y;
    height: 650px;
    width: 650px;
CSS from page created from Template looks to be the same, but is greyed out in the code, and the background-image entry is not present in the CSS styles inspector:
.container {
    background-color: #ececec;
    background-image: url(../images/faux_column.png);
    background-repeat: repeat-y;
    height: 650px;
    width: 650px;
Any suggestions greatly appreciated.

Unfortunately, I don't yet have a site where I can post the page. I'm new to this, and doing everything locally for now.
After careful rechecking, I found that the links for the template and the child were not the same, as you suspected. So I carefully changed the links to site root relative, which worked for the background CSS in my test image. I then did the same for all of the links to pages on my site, and checked that all were OK with Link Checker in DW. I guess that was a mistake, because now most of them don't work when tested in Firefox--I get the message File not found. Must be doing something wrong.

Copying CSS rules to new page

Is it possible to copy all my CSS modifications from a preset, two column liquid header and footer layout, to a preset, two column static header and footer layout so I don't have to redo all the rules on the new page?
Thanks,
scriptmemory

Salut,
it's a bit hard to say what changes you need without seeing the page. But if the CSS is in the head of the page, then you should save the old page as the new page, then only change the CSS that makes the columns liquid to fixed px sizes.

Left Nav Page Height

Hi, just a quick one (I hope). How can I make my left nav continue to the bottom of the page so it's inline with any main content.
An example of this can be found on the following site:
http://www.prodirectrunning.com/
I look forward to your replies and help.
Thanks in advance.

Depending on the container for your document, place a repeating background image into your style rules.
For example, my container is simply the body and this is what I would have for the background image
html {
    color: #3A4084;
body {
    width: 1000px;
    margin: 0 auto;
    background: url(images/main_bg.jpg) repeat-x;
This will place the body in the centre (margin left and right of auto) of your document. It has a width of 1000px and has a background image called main_bg.jpg. The height of the body is detrmined by its contents.

Experience Manager doesn't show left nav to browse the pages/content collection

Hi,
We are using Endeca Experience Manager with ATG 11.0. We have created application and triggered baseline update successfully, all the steps are successful.
When we open Experience Manager it doesn't show the pages/content which will create by default with Discovery data/pages.
Please help us on this.
Thanks in advance,
Ravinder P

Thanks for the reply Tim,
We tried to access in both Chrome and FF, both doesn't show the left nav. We are suspecting that this could be issue with editors or application issue.
Thanks,
