Hi Naval,

Thanks for the excellent info.

Is it possible to Bold, Italize or Underline text in Custom Buttons of Nav Bar. (I know Re-sizing is possible).

Thanks.

Re: Custom Buttons for Nav Bar

Once you have fixed the button image, the rest can be customized from thr Nav bar properties, Style. You can set Font, Color, Size, Style, and mouseover color.

onmouseover drop down navigation

I really would love to create a proffesionally looking website with great onmouseover drop down navigation effect but I cannot seem to find the get-around with vodahost website builder.There is no option that would let me do that.A good example of the kind of style I am talking about is as in the following sites;

How can I create my own on_mouse_over drop-down effect???????

These are the built in BV drop down menus. They have only customized colors. Have a look at Sliding Menu Bars (Drop Down) - creating and editing

Re: Custom Buttons for Nav Bar

Hello...Please help if you can

.I want to navigate around my site with text: <back next>
.I do not want this text "button" to appear blue or underlined
.I do understand that this is two blocks of text...not one
.So question is...how can I navigate with these two "text buttons" without using the hyperlink tool?
. My page has a background color (pumpkin). I just want the text to appear directly on the background NOT in some colored bar or button.
. Can this be done? Please help if you can.
Thanks Innaphog

Re: Custom Buttons for Nav Bar

You will have to use the hyperlink tool and then make your own "style"
This option appears when you select your text and click on the hyperlink tool. Play around with the options.
For this example I de-selected the "underline" option.
the "link" is black
the "visited link" is grey
the "active link" is green
and the "hover link" is blue
Of course, you can choose any color(s)

Re: Custom Buttons for Nav Bar

OR you could use the Menu Bar ... found near the bottom on the left side of your blue voda website builder

For each time you would like to use the word NEXT or BACK as a linkable option without a button just use the MENU BAR ... you can link the word, and you can change the background, etc., to your own colors, with the style option ... you will need to use custom color for your pumpkin color and you can do this by changing the RGB Code ... (which you should have from the pumpkin color itself.)

Re: Custom Buttons for Nav Bar

Hi there, I've made my customised navigation buttons. Looks great. still use the standard yext function. when I publish it the words are 'tiny'. so small you can't ready them. I have increased them to 36pt, which looks silly on the file but at least it's readable when I publish. Am I missing something?

Re: Custom Buttons for Nav Bar

This is because the buttons are transparent and this is the color (fuchsia) that BV renders the transparency with.

Your only solution is to make your original button image have a black background

Re: Custom Buttons for Nav Bar

Hi, I would like to put a "back" on my pages. Typed in "on click:history.go(-1)" but it keeps going back or rather coming back to the same page. What am I doing wrong?
