Please check my navigation bar! - 7/9/2003 22:27:23   
Hi all. I am in the process of installing a new javascript nav bar. I have had to make slight " adjustments" for IE, Op, NS4 and NS6/7 or the script shows up slightly too low or too the left, etc.

Here is the link:

http://www.signingshotline.com/index_test.asp

If you could tell if the nav bar is centered and showing up just below (maybe 3 pixels below) a thin red line it would be appreciated.

I have tested it on NS 4.75, NS 6.22, NS 7.0, IE 6 and Opera 7 all on a PC. If any of you could look at it on a Mac or other browsers it would be very helpful!

Thanks.

Thanks Shirley. Just seeing your reply alone does not put a warm and fuzzy feeling in my heart about this nav bar! The strange thing is it is showing up FINE on my computer with IE6!!!!!!

Sooooo.....what do I do? I want to switch to a javascript/drop down type nav bar. Would I be having these issues with Vince from Spains nav bar? Is his bullet-proof? Is it truly x-crosser with no adjustments? I just spent the better part of 2 day working on this current failed attempt! I want to get it right this time.

Thanks:)[:' (]:):):)

I have only used VFS' s menu once (with no problems).
Have you looked at the Outfront Product Support forum to see if there are any issues??

OK. I burned the midnight oil and read up on JS and did some twaeking to the script and I THINK I got it :)

If Shirley and Mike54 (and who(m?)ever else) could kindly take a minute to see if the the green nav bar is centered right below the red line, it would be appreciated:

Opera 5 does not have " dynamic" capabilities or something to that effect.

Apparently neither does Opera 6.05:):)

I was hoping to show that the VFS pop out menu worked but to my surprise it does not.:):) Now I have a navigation to revisit:).

Opera 7 is the first release that can handle it.

I check it also using IE6 and it looked fine.

That is just the thing that I was looking for. I would love to have a navigation bar like that on my web page. How did you do it?

My whole site was mainly done with Frontpage and I managed to add a few canned javascripts and CGI scripts along the way.

Any advice on how to add a navigation bar similar to yours would be greatly appreciated.

I got this menu off of
http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex1/hvmenu/index.htm

It is free and very versitile but a little slow loading. I know nothing about JS but got it to work. READ THE DIRECTIONS!!!!!

LMK if you need a hand. There is also a version with some effects on the authors website:

RE: Please check my navigation bar! - 7/12/2003 19:25:18   
Here is what I came up with to overcome the Opera 5/6 problem:

<%If Instr(request.serverVariables(" HTTP_USER_AGENT" )," Opera 5" ) OR Instr(request.serverVariables(" HTTP_USER_AGENT" )," Opera 6" )then%>
< !--#include file=" navbar/html.asp" -- >
<%Else%>
<script type=' text/javascript' >
//HV Menu- by Ger Versluis (http://www.burmees.nl/menu/menus.htm)
//Submitted to Dynamic Drive (http://www.dynamicdrive.com)
//Visit http://www.dynamicdrive.com for this script and more
function Go(){return}
</script>
<td width=" 100%" height=" 23" align = " center" >
<div id=' MenuPos' style=' <%=Command%>position:relative; width:747; height:22;' ><img src=' blank.gif' width=' 5' height=' 22' ></div>
<script type=' text/javascript' src=' navbar/relativepositioned_var.js' ></script>
<script type=' text/javascript' src=' navbar/menu9_compact.js' ></script>
<%end if%>
<noscript>
< !--#include file=" navbar/html.asp" -- >
</noscript>


This include < !--#include file=" navbar/html.asp" -- > is an HTML version of my nav bar

It still needs a bit of fine-tuning for the noscript portion. Try Opera 6 now. It should work.

Say it ain' t so Mike. :)[:' (]:) Are you saying that you do not see a Nav Bar on Opera 6? I tried it and it wouked on 2 separate computers.

This is not a JS bar, but an HTML replacement bar.

OK, minor tweak. Now this should get you running in Opera. Opera 5 or 6 come up with the HTML nav bar include while Opera 7 comes up with the Javascript.


<%If Instr(request.serverVariables(" HTTP_USER_AGENT" )," Opera" ) AND NOT Instr(request.serverVariables(" HTTP_USER_AGENT" )," Opera 7" )then%>
< !--#include file=" navbar/html.asp" -- >
<%Else%>
<script type=' text/javascript' >
//HV Menu- by Ger Versluis (http://www.burmees.nl/menu/menus.htm)
//Submitted to Dynamic Drive (http://www.dynamicdrive.com)
//Visit http://www.dynamicdrive.com for this script and more
function Go(){return}
</script>
<td width=" 100%" height=" 23" align = " center" >
<div id=' MenuPos' style=' <%=Command%>position:relative; width:747; height:22;' ><img src=' blank.gif' width=' 5' height=' 22' ></div>
<script type=' text/javascript' src=' navbar/relativepositioned_var.js' ></script>
<script type=' text/javascript' src=' navbar/menu9_compact.js' ></script>
<%end if%>
<noscript>
< !--#include file=" navbar/html.asp" -- >
</noscript>

I have a lot of choices for folks to go to. In a non-drop down format I need a double row.

Opera 5 should work too.

Thanks again Mike54 for your help and patience. I truly appreciate it. Without you I would have been in a state of blissful ignorance (and still may be:))

I couldn' t wait to get into work this morning:):) to check something out. I didn' t believe that I had put up a site without checking it in the (then) latest Opera browser and sure enough when I opened it with Opera 5 the menu (VFS popout) was there and working. Consider me confused...:)
