Can You Help with an iWeb Nav Bar Not Displaying Problem?

Hi Everyone,
I have had a website that I created with iWeb and have successfully hosted with me.com (Mobile Me) for the past 8 months. I added a new page yesterday and ever since then, the Nav Bar has stopped appearing on any browser. This happens on every page of my site where there should be a Nav Bar.
I brought up the Safari "Activity" window and when I load one of my pages in, error messages pop up that may hold the clue for someone helping out. (I'm not sure if this has anything to do with the problem.)
All the "http://..." components (not shown) load in okay, but the following "https://..." components below are followed by a "bad server certificate" error message.

No, I haven't tried deleting the page I created yesterday. I'm quite proud of it and would hate to can it. I will, if I have to, but before then, I was hoping someone else familiar with this problem had a solution they could share.
Thanks.

Hello
I am having the same problem. I have had my website with mobile me for nearly 2 years and have never had a problem.
However my Nav Bar has disappeared on the published website. When I go into iWeb it is there. I have made some changes and republished it - a few times - and when live you can only get to the Home page, there is just a dot where all the other pages used to list.
I brought up the Safari Activity window and it tells me that only 13 of 15 items are there. It doesn't show any other errors.
I would love some help on how to fix it.
Thanks

Help with my flash Nav Bar? [easy stuff]

hey guys, looking for a little bit of help with some simple
flash here, I have a flash banner for a website, there are 5
seperate buttons, the instance names are:
home_btn
about_btn
equip_btn
work_btn
contacts_btn
what code am i looking for to open each new page in the SAME
browser window that the index page first opens in?
i have this code for it right now but it's not working
because of the obvious conflicts:
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest("
http://www.fhwm.ca/index.shtml");
home_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,goURL);
function goURL(event:MouseEvent){
navigateToURL(request);
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest("
http://www.fhwm.ca/about.shml");
about_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,goURL) ;
function goURL(event:MouseEvent){
navigateToURL(request);
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest("
http://www.fhwm.ca/equipment.shml");
equip_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,goURL) ;
function goURL(event:MouseEvent){
navigateToURL(request);
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest("
http://www.fhwm.ca/work.shml");
work_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,goURL);
function goURL(event:MouseEvent){
navigateToURL(request);
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest("
http://www.fhwm.ca/contacts.shml");
contacts_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,goU RL);
function goURL(event:MouseEvent){
navigateToURL(request);
any help would be much appreciated

You should eliminate what you know to be obvious conflicts
and then repost your code. Someone might be wasting their time
telling you something you already know.
For instance, you cannot declare the same function or
variable more than once, as you repeatedly do. Either each button
needs its own uniquely named/dedicated handler function and URL
(request) variable OR you need a handler function that detects
which button is the target of the event and assigns the URL to the
request variable via a switch or other conditional code which is
then used to process the page loading.

# sign in address bar is messing with my spry nav bar. Please help

Hi everyone,
I'm using DWCS3 on a Mac book OS X Leopard 10.5 and I have set up MAMP aswell.
I've got a really simple information site and I'm using Spry navigation bars, all the links work fine in MAMP for all of my buttons except on one page.
When I try to press the buttons on the navigation bar, in the address bar a hash sign will appear next to the address for the page;
e.g.   ../innocent/case.html (without pressing buttons in nav bar)
         ../innocent/case.html# (after pressing button in nav bar)
This stops the nav bar performing on that particular page and you can not navigate the site.
MAMP is using Firefox as the start page, when i use the preview in browser facility in DWCS3 I have the same problem with Firefox, however the problem does not seem to be occuring in Safari or Opera.
I created my page from a template and have checked the links are O.K. I don't undrestand why it works on all the other pages except for one.
Could somebody please help me out?

When I try to press the buttons on the navigation bar, in the address bar a hash sign will appear next to the address for the page;
e.g.   ../innocent/case.html (without pressing buttons in nav bar)
         ../innocent/case.html# (after pressing button in nav bar)
This usually occurs when the link is as follows
<a href="#">my link</a>
But without seeing your code for case.html it is very hard to judge,
I hope this helps.

Link problem with Fireworks CS5 - net::ERR_FILE_NOT_FOUND

Hi,
I'm having trouble with the hotspot links in Fireworks CS5. When I've added the links I want and click F12 to preview in Chrome, it loads the page without problems. But when I click on one of the links I get the following message:
Webpage cannot be found
There was no webpage at the adress: file:///C:/Users/Margiiie/AppData/Local/Temp/FWTemp/LinkedPage.htm
Error 6 (net::ERR_FILE_NOT_FOUND): Could not find file or catalogue.
(translated by me from Swedish to English, so it might not be 100% correctly translated).
A few days ago I used Revo Uninstaller Pro to remove some files from my computer, and I remember clicking "Remove temporary Internet Files" on all of the web browsers. This might have something to do with the problem, but I can't seem to able to recover the files I removed..
So, I really need som help here! Do you think that the removal of the temp files is the problem? What can I do about it?
Regards,
Margiiie

If you tried a) refreshing/reloading the page within the browser and b) emptying the contents of the FWTemp folder, and neither of those worked, then I'd take another look at the link itself. Assuming there are other links on the page you've created, compare the links within Fireworks: Are there any differences between them? Would it be possible to re-enter or re-establish the problem link's URL?
One thing I notice in your intial post is that "LinkedPage.htm" seems all by itself within the FWTemp folder, instead of being placed in a subfolder. When I generate a preview in FW, it places the contents in a folder (named with a random number), like this:
file:///Users/doug/Library/Application%20Support/Macromedia/Fireworks%208/FWTemp/24327926/ 00000002.htm
Generally, a website observes a folder hierarchy. I'd kind of expect "LinkedPage.htm" to be in the same folder as the "index.htm" or whatever your problem page is called.
I have to admit, I don't use Fireworks to create and preview web pages, so I'm not completely versed in how it works for a full website. I'm not 100% certain that previewing an individual page should result in a functional preview of an entire site. In other words, I'm not certain that links are supposed to work if they lead to another page within the same site (assuming you're previewing one page at a time). If this remains a problem, I'd suggest letting it go for now. Try File > Export instead, and make sure you're exporting all the pages in the site. If that works, then you're in good shape.

Can you help with InDesign CS5 index problem?

   This is my first attept at creating an Index. I've pretty much tried everything I can think of to get this index to work properly. I think I might have made some fundamental errors in creating this document. I created a document and not a book. I placed 5 text files without linking them. I thought I could simply use the index panel and enter my words from the toc and front matter and InDesign would find all the occurences in the document. But when I ran the index I got the toc pg numbers and the index pg numbers only, i.e., Illumination vi-225 (p225 being the index pg). So far I have:
reentered all the index entries to using the "whole document" because I had originally chose "This page" for each entry - that didn't work
then I threaded the 5 text files thinking that might work - nope!
then I saved the file as a book and tried using that - that didn't work.
   And yes, I have searched the Adobe CS5 help books, videos, online sites, etc. I'm hoping it's something simple! I would truly appreciate any help with this. Thank you!

You don't have any Shape layers, so you won't have any fill or stroke options. If you had a rectangle and line layer, you have either deleted them, or caused them to be rasterized. That would also remove any Fill and Stroke options from the Options bar.
The 'little camera' at the bottom of the Tool bar, is the Quick mask icon. Clicking on it toggles between standard and Quick mask modes, like you said. Clicking on it is exactly the same as hitting the q key. It has absolutely nothing to do with Shape layers.
What you need to do now, is regroup. What exactly are you trying to achieve, and what do you expect to see in your Workspace? You will have noticed that your workspace is context sensitive. It automatically changes according to what tools are selected, or what function you are using at any particular time.

I need help with a flash nav and switching pages!!!

is there anyway to point the browser to play a swf file from
a specific point (labeled frame) in the movie after switching
(html) pages?
basically it's a nav bar that needs to be played from the end
of the movie after the first opening (html)page.
I know i can do this with frames, but i would love to avoid
that if possible. and the only other option i know would be to have
2 swf files. there has to be a "on(load) /gotoandplay() or some
combination to make this work, it seems to be too close to not be
possible.
thanks for all the help.

SHouldn't be too involved. Just set a variable with JS (or
whatever
language you can use, I used JS simply b/c you stated HTML
pages, not PHP or
ASP), then in your flash movie, have your first frame do a
basic if/then or
do a switch (if it's available in AS).
if ($var==1){
gotoAndPlay (1,1);
elseif ($var--2){
gotoAndPlay(1,2);
etc.
Alternately, you could set a session variable, but you would
have to have
dynamic pages to do that.

Issue with Fireworks CS5 on Mac OSX 10.9 Mavircks - worked before?

Tried to launch my copy of Fireworks CS5 today and it kept crashing? It had worked before, but now.. no. I deleted the app and tried to reinstal. Recently migrated from MacBook Pro running Mavricks and had this installed prior. Migrated to iMac with Mavricks.. now wont launch. Thought it was a serial number issue. Clearly not.
Any thoughts?

Help with a Spry Menu Bar

I'm having trouble with a Spry Menu Bar not displaying
correctly in Internet Explorer, while it displays fine in every
other browser I have available. I've done some searching on these
boards, but the queries I've found with the same type of problem
each has a knowledgeable person editing the code for the
poster...and I can't seem to make heads or tails of it.
So, below is my link. What you'll see if viewed in Explorer
is that the "Clinics" listing and the "Services & Specialties"
listing are each on the same horizontal line, rather than vertical
like the rest of the menu. If anyone can help me in correcting this
problem, I'd be very appreciative.
Thanks in advance.
http://www.chambershospital.com/temp/about.html

Hello,
You might try removing all of the <div> tags you
inserted in the menu.
This can happen if you select text in design view and use the
"align" icons
in the properties window instead of using CSS to align
things.
For example:
<li>
<div align="left"><<****REMOVE THIS
<a href="clinics.html"
class="MenuBarItemSubmenu">Clinics</a>
<ul>
<li><a href="clinic.html">Chambers
Clinic</a></li>
<li><a href="clinic7.html">Scenic 7
Clinic</a></li>
</ul>
</div><<*** REMOVE THIS
</li>
So it looks like this:
<li><a href="clinics.html"
class="MenuBarItemSubmenu">Clinics</a>
<ul>
<li><a href="clinic.html">Chambers
Clinic</a></li>
<li><a href="clinic7.html">Scenic 7
Clinic</a></li>
</ul>
</li>
Repeat for all the other <div align="left"> and
</div> tags in the menu.
Take care,
Tim

Need help with illustrator cs5

Hi everyone.....first time on a forum and hope someone can help. I am using illustrator cs5 on OSx snow leapard. I am designing wings, following a demo and when I get to the part where I am supposed to use the reflect tool, I come to grief. Firstly the reflect tool dialogue box has two windows in the options part.....patterns or objects. I am supposed to be able to uncheck these but they are greyed out and not changeable. Secondly when I try to reflect my wing, using the option key to copy as well, the program appears to turn my wing over and give me a view of what would be the back of the wing, not a reflection. My fella and I have spent some considerable time trying to figure out what the issue is but to no avail...........Hope someone can help ..........Josephine Star.

Josephine,
In the future, please try to title your threads with something meaningful. Titles like "help" or "need help with Illustrator" or "Beginner Question" are useless. Fairly all posts are about "help with Illustrator" and about 98% of them are from beginners.
function(){return A.apply(null,[this].concat($A(arguments)))}
why won't my reflect tool operate properly.....we have just spent another hour trying to sort it out.
Is your Reflect Tool not operating as shown in Illustrator's instructions (online Help)? If not, how is it behaving differently?
Have you looked at the instructions? If not, do you not think that spending over an hour while typing posts in an online forum, waiting for answers (which are as often incorrect as correct) for every little question you may have about Illustrator is a much less time-efficient way to learn the program than reading the provided documentation?
function(){return A.apply(null,[this].concat($A(arguments)))}
when I try to reflect my wing, using the option key to copy as well, the program appears to turn my wing over and give me a view of what would be the back of the wing, not a reflection
"A view of what would be the back" (i.e.; a mirror image) is what Reflect means in the context of Illustrator's Reflect tool. What did you expect different?
Clicking with the Reflect Tool while holding alt/opt(Windows/Mac) sets the center of transformation where you click and invokes the dialog. So, for example, if the object is bilaterally symetrical about its vertical axis (like an upward-pointing triangle), and you altClick its center and then click OK in the resulting dialog, there will be no difference, because the mirror image of such a triangle reflected across a vertical axis would be identical.
Unless it changed in CS5 (don't have it loaded on this laptop)--which I doubt, clicking Copy instead of OK in the dialog is what makes a reflected copy; not holding the alt/opt key.
If you...
1. Mousedown with the Reflect Tool
2. Press and hold Alt
3. Drag
...then you will reflect the object about the position where you mousedown, interactively (without invoking the dialog). While doing so, if you also add the Shift key before mouseup, the reflection will be a copy.

Screen whiteout on save with Fireworks CS5

Whenever I save a PNG in Fireworks CS5, the canvas undergoes a whiteout effect – the document seems to be fading out to indicate that it can't be edited during the save process.
This sudden flash is distressing when working on documents that have predominantly darker hues. It's worst at night when the screen is the brightest thing around. It basically causes your eyes to dilate and then un-dilate rapidly, which is kind of disorienting.
Is there any way to disable this "feature"? It's physiologically upsetting. No other application that I know of has this behavior and other CS5 apps definitely don't do it. This is not a helpful UI cue; on the contrary, it's quite irritating to my eyes.

Two case scenerios this comes in handy (that I can think of):
1. multiple document scenerios, particularly larger files that 'may' take awhile to save. the feature allows you to toggle/work on another document while the other is 'saving'.
2. in single document cases, ever sit next to a person at a computer is is 'click happy'? They click 'away' before the 'triggered' action is complete and freak out why the screen has gone amuck ('non-responding, out of memory, freezes etc). This happens in any program. The feature acts as a 'preventive' measure to ensure the triggered 'save' completes without the end user attempting another forced action.

PLZ HELP ASAP- pix, publishing, nav bar

I'm part of a youth group and i"m making our site using iweb.
Several questions:
1)do I need a .mac account to publish what ive been working on to to internet...can i just use 'godaddy'?
2)Ive kind of publsihed my one of my pages to my geocities accout and the pix show up as a blue box with a question mark in them
3)there are pages to my site the i dont showing up in the nav bar at the top, (for example a calendar- a made a page in the nav bar called " calendar"- in that page there is Jan as a hyperlink ,feb as a hyper link, etc. I didnt want all those months showing up in the nav bar so i put 12 pages under another site and each month under "calendar" is a link to its corresponding page in the other site) right now i solved this by simply puttting all those pages under a new site on the site organizer on the left, but i dont to have to publish 2 or 3 sites when i put them up. So baisically how do I put a page in a site without in showing up in the nav bar?
Thanks so much!
MacBook Mac OS X (10.4.6)

1)do I need a .mac account to publish what ive been
working on to to internet...can i just use
'godaddy'?
Yes, see this note for some tips:

2)Ive kind of publsihed my one of my pages to my
geocities accout and the pix show up as a blue box
with a question mark in them
You probably broke the structure of the site when uploading. In your space you should have an index.html file plus a folder which has the same name as your site does in iWeb. Use a real ftp program like Fetch.
