MS Office Forum / Publisher / Web Design / October 2007Navigation bar not working for some
I published this MS Pub 2003 website and have had half the visitors sa that the hyperlinks in the navigation bar (both right and bottom) ar not working. Nothing happens. However, the othe hyperlinks on the Abou Us page are working for them. Site is http://www.kypets.com/ and I really need help solving this. I don't know if it is scripting the fpse, peoples browsers or browser settings, that I uploaded it t the cpanel file mgr and not ftp, or just something I did when I create it. I never had a problem in web preview, and I still have no proble viewing it online. I did put hotspots around the items in th navigation bar, removed that to see if that was it, and now just hav the text hyperlinked in the menus. Help!! Juli - Evi ----------------------------------------------------------------------- View this thread: http://www.forum4designers.com/message281319.htm Just wanted to add this: the people who are viewing it and the navigation bar links are not working, those people do have I.E. 6.0. But I know other people with 6.0 who have no problem with navigating between pages. Also, when I viewed this site in a netscape browser, it was a BIG mess. I wonder did I do something wrong when I published this? > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > Posted via http://www.forum4designers.com > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > View this thread: http://www.forum4designers.com/message281319.html > Read thru the FAQ at http://www.publishermvps.com/WebDesign/FAQ/tabid/30/Default.aspx - for all the common link problems. Having poked around your site I didn't find any bad link(s) but I suspect you may have a few of the link issues I cover on the FAQ. Likely those hitting a bad link(s) are finding the same one(s). Which I just didn't happen to find. One of the most obvious things you can see right there in the browser status bar (gray bar at bottom), watch the link URL's as you hover over the menu. On some pages, on some links, you'll see some links are "pageXXXX.html", while sometimes the links are "/index_files/pageXXXX.html". Sometimes you can have the nav bars so screwed up that it's best to just delete them and regenerate them. Properly.

Went through your FAQS and I have a question about the subfolder. I did upload from MS Pub, not from my host. Where is this elusive subfolder? And will it contain the navigation hyperlinks? I think the most important tip is to just look at the bar when you hover over a navigation. Did that on all the pages for the navigation bar, and found that on pg2, About Us( http://kypets.com/index_files/Page266.html ) every other page navigation link shows as just "pagexxx.html" in the bottom bar. Navigation links on every other page display as " . . . /index_files/pageXXXX.html". What does this ALL say to you?

I did do a copy of the navigation bar from another page and pasted it onto that page 2, but it still shows wrong with just the "pagexxx.html" Am I missing some step in this? If I were to just redesign a navigation bar which matched the one I have on, and reset all hyperlinks, would that work? > "index_files" is the sub-folder > all pages and image files are in that folder with one exception- only the [quoted text clipped - 64 lines] > >> > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > >> > View this thread: http://www.forum4designers.com/message281319.html On our site, in my "2000" section, there is an article on the nav bar.
