Using the nav bar to link to another page.

It is possible to use the nave bar to link to another page such as a blog?
Example:
Welcome About Me My Photos Blog (linked to external blog such as blogger)

If you want the link to the external page to appear in the default navbar then do the following:
1 - create a blank page and name it the way you want it in the navbar.
2 - add an HTML Snippet to that page with the following code in it:
<script type="text/javascript">
parent.window.location = "URL TO THE EXTERNAL PAGE"; </script>
What this does is automatically redirect the viewer to the external page when the link in the navbar is clicked on.
My Demo Sites are setup this way. The Contents page for each site is redirected to a separate Contents site which contains the index of all the pages in the three demo sites. That way I only have to change the index on the Contents site instead of doing it for each site individually.
If you want the other page to open in a new window you'll have to create a separate text based hyperlink and use the Inspector/Link pane to link the text to it and check the open in new window option. If you need to have that in the navbar you can create a texbased navbar, hide the default one and set your links as needed in the Inspector/Link pane. This is a demo page of a Text Based Navbar.

  • I have 5 html pages that share a common header, footer, and sidebar. how do i use my nav bar to change the content of the body without duplicating a lot of code?

    i have 5 html pages that share a common header, footer, and sidebar. how do i use my nav bar to change the content of the body without duplicating a lot of code? thank you!

    i inherited the website. It’s for a non-profit and is not very
    sophisticated, and neither am I in webdesign. It currently has multiple
    pages that are identical except for that body section, so whenever i change
    the navigation (in the sidebar) I have to update every html page.  I want
    to have one basic page, and just call in the different body content based
    on the link the user selects from the nav bar. How can i do that using a
    script? i am using Dreamweaver.

  • Creating a hero photo slider using jquery but the nav bar sub menus go behind the hero div tag

    Dropbox - Butler Lawyers
    Hello Everyone
    I m designing a site with a hero photo slider using jquery. My problem is, the nav bar submenus are going behind the photo slider  so you can't see the  Legal Services tab sub menus. I have provided a dropbox link to the entire project. I m working on the file entitled index.html. Any thoughts on how to fix the problem???
    Thank you in advance
    Paul

    Hi Paul
    Sounds like a z-index problem.
    We really need to see ALL your files to solve your issue quickly and accurately without a lot of guessing and questions back-and-forth.
    Just rename a copy of your problem page  (such as "test.html")  and upload it to your server (with any associated files) in whatever folder the original page was located, and simply post a link in the Forum and tell us your problem.
    This saves you having to cut and paste miles of code into the Forum for the page and all the dependent CSS, JS etc. files.and saves us from having to recreate all your files, find your images and then repair your code and test the solution for you.
    I trust this is helpful.

  • Photos disappear when I don't use the navigation bar

    I read that it's better to create your own links instead of using the iWeb navigation bar, if you want your site to be indexed by Google. I did so and everything worked well on my computer (iWeb and in the saved folder). When I published the site, however, the photos on my photo page had all disappeared.
    Does anyone know what might have happened?

    Thanks for your help. It's good to know where to look when things go wrong.
    I completely removed the new nav bar from the site and put back the standard one, so I'm not sure. When the site was uploading, however, I think I saw the image files being uploaded.
    Now I'm trying to work with the nav bar on the left hand side of the page and with new buttons, and in the trial version the foto's magically appeared...

  • Why does the nav bar move in a browser??

    Please help!  In dreamweaver the nav bar looks perfect and is over the top of the blue line under the picture header but when I put it in a browser, it moves as you can see from my link!!
    test site
    Please can anyone tell me why??  I have a feeling it will be a CSS positioning thing but I am very very new to this so do not know how to rectify!
    Thanks if you can help!

    Look this is not a good solution, it just hacks around the issue.
    Add this to the css style:
    #header p {
    padding: 60px 0 0 0;
    margin: 0;
    Then you need to go into code view and change these code lines:
    <div id="container">
      <div id="header"><br >
        <p align="right"><br >Complete Energy Certificates Ltd </p>
        <p align="right">&nbsp;<br><br >
        </p>
        <div align="center">
    To this:
    <div id="container">
      <div id="header">
    <p align="right">Complete Energy Certificates Ltd </p>
        <div align="center" style="margin-top: 71px;">
    Now let me explain. You're trying to position elements using <br> tags which will not work. The solution I provided is a sticking plaster one and may fail in some browsers because it still relies on guess work.
    A far better option would be to rebuild that top section of your page into a solid structure.
    A <div> which contains the grass bank and sky image but NOT the blue line that your navigation sits on. You can set this <divs> height to the height of the image and then include your text 'Complete Energy Certificates Ltd' within it.
    Like:
    <div id="header">
    <p>Complete Energy Certificates Ltd</p>
    </div><!-- we close the header -->
    Now set some css:
    .twoColElsLtHdr #header {
    background-color: #FFF;
    background-image: url(images/header2.jpg);
    background-repeat: no-repeat;
    background-position: center;
    font-size: 12px;
    height: 205px; /* make the height the same as that of the background image */
    Move your 'Complete Energy Certificates Ltd' text into position by setting some top
    and right padding on the paragraph tag:
    .twoColElsLtHdr #header p {
    margin: 0;
    padding: 60px 10px 0 0;/*top,right,bottom,left*/
    text-align: right;
    Next introduce a navigation <div> right after the 'header' <div> and put all the table code relating to yuor menu in it:
    <div id="header">
    <p>Complete Energy Certificates Ltd</p>
    </div><!-- we close the header -->
    <div id="navigation">
    <!-- all table code for navigation goes here -->
    </div><!-- we close the navigation -->
    Style your naviagtion <div> to have a blue background that matches the menu images:
    #navigation {
    background-color: #XXX;
    Think of contruction as simple building blocks.

  • Created site in iweb 08 and posted to netfirms... the pages are all loaded up but there is no nav bar, it comes up on each page as a small black dot. How do I get the nav bar to load up and show?

    I created site in iweb 08 and posted to netfirms... the pages are all loaded up but there is no nav bar, where the nav bar should be is only a small black dot on each page. How do I get the nav bar to load up and show? It was a disaster loading up my site as it changed the case of the letters and at first no pages were seen, so I had to go through and change the letters that were supposed to be cap, back to cap in every file. I don't know if this has something to do with it or not. The tech support doesn't have an answer. Please let me know if you have any ideas and solutions. Thanks bunches!

  • How do I link to another page in the same iBook?

    I am trying to link from within the text of my book to another page in the same iBook. How do I do that in iBooks Author?
    For example...
    The text on page 1 might read.... "If you'd like to jump to the page on herbivores, click here". And that text would be linked to page 49, which is about herbivored.
    Any ideas? Greatly appreciated!!

    It looks like I figured this out by playing around with it.
    The reason that I couldn't bookmark the text earlier is that I had created a text box and entered text in there. When you create a text box, that text is not recognized by the bookmark widget. However when you type directly into the page template itself, it recognizes the text just fine. I'm able to set bookmarks and then link to those bookmarks using the hyperlink featuer. Looks like it's solved, I was just trying to use the wrong tool for text entering.
    Thanks for your help Don, you've been great!

  • How to get rid of the Nav bar

    I want to get rid of the Nav Bar which contains Prev, Next
    Refresh and hide buttons. We can hide the buttons in that bar by
    commenting writeToolBar(); in whskin_mbars.htm file. But still
    unable to hide the complete bar. I am using RoboHelp 7 with WebHelp
    Pro. Thanks.

    I'm pretty sure that this is documented in Rick's Skinny on Skins:
    http://www.robowizard.com/RoboWizard/NewProject.htm#Downloads/Skinny_on_Skins.htm
    If not, try this: Go to whskin_frmset010.htm. Find the line that start with
         strHTML+="<frameset rows=\"24,*\"
    Replace the 24 by a 0.
    Kind regards,

  • Ive downloaded ff4 now i cant scroll the web pages using my mouse i have to use the scroll bar why's this and can it be sorted?

    i cant use the scroll function on my laptop mouse pad after i downloaded ff4. i have to use the scroll bar on the page its self

    Have you looked for the file in the location as suggested by the post above mine in the linked thread?
    C:\Windows\System32\tp4table.dat
    Or, if you have a Synaptics device, the file might be located in its installation folder, e.g:
    C:\Program Files\Synaptics\SynTP\tp4table.dat
    If/when you find it I think the syntax should be the same. Either way; you could just change it back if something goes wrong and knowing the file name/location will let you search the internet more effectivly as this is a likely cause.

  • How to select songs using the search bar in iTunes for Windows 8.1

    Just today (8th May, 14) I couldn't select songs when using the search bar in the top right hand side of iTunes. I patched it but it didn't solve the problem, however once I ran as administrator it did fix the problem. Is there a way to not have to run as administrator every time I want to open iTunes and/or is there a way to fix this problem? I have iTunes pinned on my taskbar so by default it does not open iTues as administrator. Thanks

    Hi,
    This should be compatible issue.
    Please try to install the driver in Windows 8.1 compatible mode:

    My Photoshop CS 5 has some strange actions when I copy a portion of a photo using the clone stamp  to transfer to another part of the image. It carries the entire layer (not just the stamps selection) across the screen and I cannot place it where I need to. It appears as if I selected the entire layer on purpose (which I did not)
    The below items appeared when I opened Photoshop CS 5:
    “Photoshop has encountered a problem with the display driver and has temporarily disabled G & U enhancements. Check the video card malfunctions website for latest software. GPU enhancements can be enabled in the performance panel of preferences.”
    (I believe this started after the automatically updated Windows was applied. It was coincident with the before mentioned problem . . . but I don’t really know if it had anything to do with it. )

    For the Clone Stamp problem, check the Clone Source panel and Clipped is probably unchecked.
    If so, check Clipped and see if that makes a difference.
    (Window>Clone Source)
    As to the video card problem:
