CSS and changing from FP to Expression - 8/14/2009 18:40:24
Hi there. I've had a site for a couple years that I've made with FP. It's all made with tables, nothing fancy, no FP specific elements. I'm now changing over to Expression. Well, I made life hard for myself with FP and I made my left, horizontal navigation bar separately on each page of my site. So, I've decided to use an external CSS in Expression to create this navigation bar so I don't have to change every page of my web when I add something to the bar. I assume an external CSS is the way to go?! Anyway, do I need to delete the navigation bar from every page in addition to adding an external CSS to all my pages. I assume I can't keep the navigation bar there in addition to adding the external CSS. Using CSS is very new to me so any help is appreciated. If you want to take a look, the site is: http://www.freeprintablebehaviorcharts.com
Thanks ahead!

Maybe I am missing something here, but I don't see a left "horizontal" nav menu. I see a lot of links vertically down the left side of the page.
If that is what you mean by a nav bar, then yes you would remove all of those links and redo them to make a CSS Nav bar.
But why do it?. Just leave it as is and use EW to maintain your site as is..
If you want to tackle a CSS horizontal menu using EW then look at this tutorial:

Thank you so much for your response! I finally figured that out yesterday! I need to use includes and that's what I'm working on. For some reason, I thought I had to use CSS to build a navigation structure but the includes are great. I'm continuing in Front Page for the time being and will switch over to Expression later. I assume I have to modify the includes in some way for expression. I've seen something about that online. Thanks for looking and trying to make sense out of my question!
