HTML - Navigation Bar Problems
Hi,
I'm in high school and need a website for my "up-and-coming" YouTube channel. I've already finished two months of a basic Web Design class and we've just made the switch from HTML coding to Dreamweaver (but I use HTML for what I'm doing). Anyway, I know some stuff but am still pretty new and having minor difficulties with my navigation bar. I can get the links but I can't get the actual "bar" to form. I've already designed the site in OpenOffice.org (alternative for Microsoft Publisher) The link can be found on my YouTube channel's Facebook page. The image's URL is he https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?f...0634082&type=3 The link to the screenshot of my problem (includes web browser and code in the image) is he https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?f...0634082&type=3 Thanks in advance - Brad Similar TutorialsHello, I am trying to figure out why I am having a problem with a drop-menu in Internet Explorer 6. The site I am currently working on is at http://www.falcolombardi.net/Saint%20Anne/. It appears fine in FireFox, but I am needing it to work in Internet Explorer as well. There is only one element that is needing to drop, and that's a 'Newsletter' option under the "Perish Life" link. Any help is greatly appreciated! I'm trying to make a navigation bar that has the buttons taking up the full height of the container it is in, and have a width with just a few pixels padding on each side. Full height problem: I added this code: Code: ul#nav li { height: 100%; } but it only takes up as much as the padding takes up. Padding problem: When I add padding/margin on the top, instead of bumping the actual navigation button down, it overflows on the top and so there is a little green square sticking out. I want it to be perfectly centered inside the container. Please help! Thanks. this is my page http://web.vtc.edu/users/cjb06271/CI...nal/order.html there are several things I would like to happen. 1. the right collumn background to be where the right collumn should be(so other links in navbar) 2.The test between the roach pictures to be alligned with the top rather than bottom of pictures (so smaller windows can see) 3. When you size the window smaller than the text, a scroll bar appears, and when you scroll the background no longer exists. If I put it on auto the background will only go as far as the text does. 4. (nice but not required)The cocroachs to be alligned to the left and right of the top bar respectively, and the text in the middle. 5. (nice but not required) the right column background image is being cut in half (as does the top one if you size small enough). any way to make the images ignore the collumns? don't worry about the colors I will be changing them soon I built a nice little tabbed navigation and it works great in firefox and safari and displays perfectly fine in IE 6 but for some reasons my rollovers don't work. I'm not too sure as to why, everything seems fine to me... but apparently not to Internet Explorer. I've attached my code below and you can see an example of the nav here. (I don't have IE7 installed so if someone can take a look at it in that and let me know if it works or not that would be awesome!)

Let Me Explain I made buttons in photoshop but when you hover over them i want it to change to another image! im going to give you an example! this is before i hover over my navigation this is what i want it to change to when i hover over it! thanks in advance! So with some trial and error (and much help from the topics on this forum) I figured out how to make my navigation bar static throughout my templates. But now I have another problem, I'm not sure how to add another link to it.. Not successfully at least. I can add another menu, but either it won't go on the bar, or it will force another link off and it will be below the bar. I used This to make my bar, but the site doesn't seem to be working right now. If that isn't good to use, would someone be so kind to recommend a good free\cheap one? Also, I am using Kompozer and have little experience with any of this.. So any help is greatly appreciated. (BTW, sorry if this is the wrong section.) I was wondering how i could do a navigation like this one with out using flash. I dont know java but only html. Please can someone help me? Here is what im looking for: http://nexon.net I just need the navigation part. I initially had my website on freewebs.com, and used the code <!--#include virtual="/nav.shtml" --> for the navigation on each html page. I've now found a host and am trying to transfer all the pages over, however I can't seem to get the navigation sorted. The navigation should be on the left of this page - http://broadcast.tcg-publicity.org/about.html I really don't know why it's not working, as I haven't changed anything or edited any of the files. And the files are definitely in the right folder. This is the current index, and you can see that the correct file is there - http://broadcast.tcg-publicity.org/ Does anyone know what could be wrong?? Basicly, the problem is when you resize the window to the site, the navigation bar moves frome the place it is suppose to be, and stretches; this throws off the whole layout of the site when the window is resized by anyone(it needs to stay in with the background but it's not) Any help will be great!!!!! Hi there, I am currently working on a website for the school I work at. The website requires a drop down menu that has some submenus to it. Since the site it going to be rather large, I decided to create a div for the navbar where I would use an SSI file. This would allow me to change the navbar in one place rather than on 25 pages. I have created the navbar in Fireworks, and have set up the properties for each button. I have altered the paths to the images so that they appear properly (see http://www.prestigeinteractive.com/wmems2/index.shtml ), I place the references to the js and css file in the shtml file where the menu is loaded and the paths are correct to the best of my knowledge. The problem I am facing is when the page is viewed, the drop down menu appears fifty or so pixels above where they should appear. I am not sure if I've done this correctly. Please view my work at http://www.prestigeinteractive.com/wmems2/index.shtml The files have been uploaded to this thread, as they are too long to cut and paste. Thanks for any help you can give. Greg I am new to html and web designing. I have an idea for a Navigation Bar but I do not know if its possible or if its been done before. My idea is for a horizontal Nav Bar with a green background. As the visitor puts his or her cursor over the link, a lightning bolt appears from the left side and extends to the right to where the cursor is located. When the cursor moves to the links on the right side it extends, and to the left it retracts. The lightning design will be above the green background but behind the text of the link. Has this ever been done before, if so where can I find it? If not, how can I make one just like it? Are there any navigation generators or 3rd party applications that have pre-set options to allow this as well? Hi, I know basic html and I am trying to make a simple website for myself. I just can't get the navigation bar at the top of the page to display correctly. Look he pacificnewsnow.com/index2.htm I want to get the 2nd line of the navigation right under the 1st one. I've tried a table and it comes out like this: http://pacificnewsnow.com/index3.htm (The image for the 2 line of the nav bar will be different, but for now, it's just the same.) So, for a professional example of what I'm looking to do, look at this website: katu.com Thank you! hi guys, I am creating a site and i want to have sub navigation. here is a link to what i got so far http://renttheweb.com/cah/ and here is the code Code: #sidebar { float: left; width: 225px; background-color:#ffffff; } #sidebar ul { margin:0; padding:0; list-style:none; } #sidebar ul ul { margin:1em 0; padding:0 1em; } #sidebar ul ul ul { margin:0.3em 0; padding:0 0.5em; } #sidebar form { margin:1em 0; padding:0 1em; } #sidebar h2 { margin:0; padding:0; font-size:1.1em; } i got the sub nav working but i want it hidden until the parent link is clicked and then it will expand and show the sub pages under that link. any ideas? CC_DESIGN Hi im currently re designing my site and would like a navigation bar similar to the one at http://spundoogle.com/skyserpent/GoogleX/ i just dont know where to begin though please help Howdy, I have a navigation bar at the top of every page on a website. This nav bar contains several links, and they are the same on each page. The problem is, the urls they reference often need to be changed. And editing a bunch of documents every time this happens seems like needless work. Is there a way I can make the links in this nav bar reference some CSS document or some such thing, which contains the actual links? Thanks for your time, - A noobie. Hi people, I'm taking care of my web site but I would like to improve it with your help as I'm a bit of an ignorant with html and stuff. The navigation bar I've created is actually not a real navigation bar I believe. Every time you change page the bar reloads with the new page, you know what I mean? See for yourself http://www.clorinde.org/clorinde/index.htm How can I fix this so the loading of the pafe would be smoother and faster? Would you be able to provide me some codes? Thanks! Can someone please tell me how to make the navigation and the line right to the right of the navigation as seen here on this site: http://www.girlsnightoutmusic.com/ Thanks! Hi all, I was wondering if someone could help me out with a bit of coding. I am trying to build a static navigation the, when clicked, will change the HTML page in an iFrame. When clicking on one of the links in the navigation, it has a background image which changes depending on what page is loaded, but if you refresh the page, the first link in the navigation has the background image and when clicking on the others, it brings it up behind them until you click on the first one again. I will post my code below incase I am explaining this poorly. Another thing I wanted to know is that when I refresh the page, the navigation sets back to Home instead of being on Location or something else yet the iFrames content is still set to Location or something. Is there a way (without PHP) that I can save this so that when the page has been refreshed, it will stay on the correct link/page? HTML Code: <script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript"> var Lst; function CngClass(obj){ if (Lst) Lst.className=''; obj.className='On'; Lst=obj; } /*]]>*/ </script> HTML Code: <div id="navWrapper"> <div id="globalNav"> <ul> <li class="On" onclick="CngClass(this);"><a href="iframes/home.html" target="content_iframe">Home</a></li> <li class="" onclick="CngClass(this);"><a href="iframes/location.html" target="content_iframe">Location</a></li> <li class="" onclick="CngClass(this);"><a href="iframes/speakers.html" target="content_iframe">Speakers</a></li> <li class="" onclick="CngClass(this);"><a href="iframes/agenda.html" target="content_iframe">Agenda</a></li> <li class="" onclick="CngClass(this);"><a href="iframes/useful_material.html" target="content_iframe">Useful Material</a></li> <li class="" onclick="CngClass(this);"><a href="iframes/event_presentations.html" target="content_iframe">Event Presentations</a></li> <li class="" onclick="CngClass(this);"><a href="iframes/gallery.html" target="content_iframe">Gallery</a></li> </ul> </div> <div id="localNav"></div> </div> HTML Code: <iframe width="967" name="content_iframe" id="content_iframe" src="iframes/home.html" scrolling="no" frameborder="0" onLoad="calcHeight();"></iframe> Any help on this would be great! If I have to use PHP as well, would someone point me in the right direction of how I can set it up as I have only used PHP once and that was just plain data capture. Many thanks, Charlie Hi, I think this should be pretty simple to solve but can't find a resource online anywhere. I've written a photo viewing site using HTML server side includes. It is simply a large (480x360px) photo with an embedded object navigation menu below. The navigation menu has thumbnails of all the photos. It looks fine but the glitch is getting the navigation menu to change the large photo. I'm trying to avoid using JScript as it may be seen by those with basic computers (developing countries) although this is an option. The only resources I've found for this suggest creating a new page for each photo. This seems inefficient but I can't figure out if there's an elegant solution (CGI?) to pass which photo is required to a generic webpage. I'm pretty computer literate (degree in computer science in '99) but haven't programmed since I graduated and things have obviously moved on since then. You can see the page at http://osburn.co.uk/testpage/lebleu.shtml and the source below.
