    Default Really strange nav bar behaviour

    The sample site I've attached has a "bug" that I can't fix.
    The menu bar shown is just a nav bar composed of 5 buttons I created - just text on a background - no "over" state.
    You will see there are actually 6 pages and just 5 buttons - the nav bar works just fine - but if I delete the last page (test) the the last button (contact) stops working!
    If I then add another button (test) to the nav bar, the contact button still works but the new "test" button doesn't.
    I simply can't figure this out.

    I've just tried adding the .web file 3 times - keeps saying the upload failed - will tr again later.

    Tried uploading the web file again - progress bar goes to end and then an icon that says upload failed.
    Any idea what's going on?

    Yeah, there are been a recurring problem with the TG server rejecting attachments. It is a known issue and it is being worked on.

    Without the attachments it's hard to say but I suspect it may be something with your Navbar settings:

    Hi LGF,

    I can see what you mean, that is odd. I think it might be that the buttons overlap considerably (View in Wireview).

    Your profile doesn't say what version of Xara you're using but I take it it's earlier than 11 as you're using the FixedTab code. This may also be part of the problem.

    Will look at it more later.

    I just double clicked on the nav bar, un-checked Site Nab Bar appears on all pages, checked it again the Test joins the nav bar.

    Alternatively, opened the Navigation Bar Properties menu, double-clicked to add a new page, and added new page, TEST and TEST appeared on all the nav bars.

    Maybe this is because I was using WD 365?

    OK, just tried un-checking and and checking Site Nab Bar etc. in WD 11 and it also does the trick.

    Thanks Egg & Gary - but no go.
    I'm using WD10P.
    I ungrouped the nav bar buttons and made each of the button boxes smaller so that there is no overlap.
    Deleted the "test" page as I want the "contact" page to be the last page on the site.
    Unchecked "site nav bar" - preview - the contact button still doesn't work.
    Back into nav bar properties - re-check "site nav bar" - no difference.
    I've never had this issue before.....
