Hi Chris

Yes you can. A navigation bar should be a common element on all your pages. Each button/text link should have an address url so it knows where to go when clicked. Where it goes is up to you. So it can be your home page or your contact page and so on..

Regards
Darren

Thanx Darren

I tried to link my home page to a second page i created with BV but it did not link it gave me an message saying

" This link has been disabled.
BlueVoda has generated HTML for the current page only and as a result all internal links are disabled.
To enable these links be sure to publish all referenced pages to your website and specify their absolute URLs in the link properties."

I tried to test the link by previewing the page when i finished setting up the link and it gave me that error so if you can tell me what i need to do to create a proper link with the navigation bar from a primary page to a secondary page I would really appreciate it

Thanx Chris

Tiger,

Post your url so members can check it out where you have gone wrong?

Q. Did you create the menu with another software or did you use BV?

Yes Chris as soon as you are ready sign up with VH http://www.vodahost.com/

You can buy domain names here as well.

As soon as you have your welcome email with your log-in credentials, you are then able to publish.

Regards

Darren

Default Re: testing navigation bars by previewing.

Hi Daren,

It seems that you may have answered my question. I created two pages using Voda and named them index and product and saved them on a folder on my computer. Then created a navigation bar with two items "Home" and "Products" and defined the links to these items to appropriate files on the computer. Then, previewed Home page and tried to move to the Products page and the browser looked in the "Temporaty Files" folder and came up with a message that it couldnot find the files.

So, if I understand you correctly, I cannot verify that all links work properly till I publish the whole site. Since the site will have several pages, it would be nice to check it out on my computer before publishing the site. Would appreciate any help you can give me. Thanks.

cheers

Hi Chris & ranga,

You can verify that your link is there on the page you designed
by previewing your page in your browser [IE or Firefox] by pointing
your cursor at the link, the link will turn into the **** of a hand.

You cannot however view your link in action until you publish your page
to your server, which requires a hosting account.

thanks zuriatman. it would be nice to be able to verify the links before uploading the site, but I suppose that is the way it is.
