    Unhappy cant find menu

    Hi all Hope you can help me.
    I bought the full version of webstyle and am trying to use the menumaker in it.
    I succesfully create the menu, link the page, resize it, change colors, etc save it and when I put it into dreamweaver it works no problem, the problem is when I put it up on the server, it cannot for some reason be seen, Do I need to use the Target frame,.......option not sure
    The header I made for www.irishwebcreations is there as well as other things just not the buttons, any ideas...........
    hopefully it is something dsimple as I really like using this program , thanks for your help

    Your link does not work. I suggest you check your source code it may be calling your buttons etc from your hard drive not your website. perhaps you may care to post your html code or remake your link.

    Yes, as I thought, your stuff is being called from you hard drive i.e.(="Layer1"><img src="../../Desktop/WEBDESIGN2/IRISH_WEB.gif" editor=")
    src="../../../../DOCUME~1/DAVID/LOCALS~1/Temp/WS3/contact_us.js">'+'</scr'+'ipt>');/*img src="../../../../DOCUME~1/DAVID/LOCALS~1/Temp/WS3/CONTACT_US.gif" moduleid="BUTTONS FL;ASJ (Project)\CONTACT_US_off.xws"*/</script>)

    instead of your website.You will have to correct this. I cannot give you the path etc cos only you know the address of your website etc. at least that's what my poor old tired brain thinks. I'm off to bed maybe someone else will show the way.

    Sorry Dave my brain seems to have seized up. Have you no pals nearby who know about html coding? I know how to correct your code to point it to the
    correct place in your server but cannot for the life of me explain how to do it.
    I have attempted to change your code as you will see, the reference to the src= does now not point to your desktop it should find the files on your server that is if you uploaded them to your personal web page.Did you?
    also I am floundering a bit here OLD AGE no doubt. Can you send the file as a .html to me I cannot for some reason convert the source file you sent me my editor does not allow me to save it as an html file. Or better still is there not some more knowledgeable person out there can come to our rescue. It would have been better if you had posted this in the webstyle forum as well.Dave. phew!

    Hi

    Your issue I suspect is with your path structure within your site definitions.

    So first what version of DW are you using?

    second check your site definition

    Are your links relative to document or site root

    (Ok at the risk of treating you like ...

    on thetop bar select site---- manage sites then select your site and proporties- it's half way down

    If you have selected site root then thats your problem select relative to document.


    If thhat doesn't work post me a url and I'll help you sort it.

    cheers

    Ian
