PUBLISH the page again and you are done.

Or, do it straight way, in order to avoid publishing twice, and use the File publisher (embedded in BV) to simoultaneously upload the pictures.

2. Yes, it is quite possible, i simply wanted to keep that simple. In fact, not one person here has ever wondered why I have put that as a function and not as a direct include. A function would allow, for more advanced users, to define their own parameters for the menu, thus being able to change colours, buttons etc.

3. The src = "http//xxx.biz/file.js" is a different thing. The "include" command is (usually) disabled for URLs.


I'm not sure I follow you here. I created both a navigation bar with buttons and a javascript menu that will appear on multiple pages using your format. The buttons in the nav bar are the bv01016.gif files I mentioned, that appear when published. However, there is nowhere in BV that I can see that allows me to specify the file path to that image. AFAIK that image only exists on the server.

I'm curious though, is this method the best way to include a javascript menu and a navbar that will repeat on every page? What about headers and footers and rotating ad banners? In fact, my rotating ad banners don't rotate at all anymore.

Yay I'm learning now :D Thanks
